What Are Roxy UGG Boots?

Roxy Uggs are an Ugg Boot style that is authentically Australian made.  They are now the newest popular hit among celebrities, thus making them a hit among the general public.  Sienna Miller first wore these on the Hollywood scene, making them an instant must-have item.  The difference between Roxy Uggs and regular Uggs is that these boots have a strap in front.  They lace up the front with ribbons that are then laced securely through the pretty gold metal eyelets on the front.  With a bow on the top, these Uggs are truly a girl’s best fashion friend.  They come in a variety of colours, and can easily be matched with any and all outfits. 

Uggs are very comfortable as well as stylish.  The sole of the boot is made from a very lightweight yet hardwearing EVA ridged rubber.  The heels are then reinforced for extra wear and durability.  Roxy Uggs can be custom made to fit any foot, thus making them even more comfortable and form fitting.  These Australian boots are made from the finest sheepskin and hold up well under many weather conditions. Many are waterproof, and they are also easy to clean.  It is recommended that you buy a repellent spray, specially formulated for your Uggs boots, to deter dirt from accumulating on your shoe.  There are also special shampoos to buy for cleaning, usually offered by the manufacturer of that particular brand.  You can also purchase replacement sheepskin insoles, so you always have a fresh feeling on the bottoms of your feet.  

Australian Ugg boots date back years ago to World War I.  Many pilots were photographed wearing what was called "Fug Boots" back then.  They wore them to keep their feet warm while they were up in high altitudes.  Factories in the 1950's began making a line of "apache ugh boots".  Australian surfers began to use these boots to keep their feet warm when they emerged from the cold water of the ocean. Ugg is actually a generic term.  Contrary to popular belief, Ugg is not short for ugly, which some of the very early versions of this boot were.  The early versions were actually only sheepskin sewn together, no hard sole or ribbons, and resembled a sock more than a shoe.  Instead, it is a term that describes this particular style of sheepskin boot, originating in Australia.  Any Australian will tell you that Ugg means sheepskin boot.
