UGG Boots: A Story of Love or Hate?

        UGGs are certainly one of the most popular shoes in the world. Hundred thousand pairs of them are sold every year. But why are they so popular?
From my point of view, UGGs are the best casual shoes in the whole world because they are not only incredibly comfortable, but also because there is a pair of the UGG boots for everyone.


         I've been a fan of UGG for a long time; every other year I get new UGG boots. As the warm season is almost over, I’ve already started searching for a new pair of winter shoes. Last year I accepted the challenge and tried to find something different from UGGs. I'm one of those people who is constantly cold, that’s why these shoes must be very warm; and I’m a student who uses the subway every day, so I really need comfy boots!

My winter shoes must meet the following criteria:
a)   Made of real leather or suede
b)   Contain real fur inside
c)   Keep me warm
d)   I must be able to walk in them the whole day without cursing and wanting to cut off my legs
          With this list in my mind I went for a shopping, bought few pairs of shoes; however, during the winter season I was still wearing my UGGs. I have lots of sneakers, Timberlands etc. but none of my other booties are so practical, soft, warm, cozy and squishy; fur and leather keep my legs warm and dry.
          There is a pair of  UGG boots for everyone. A huge color range, different types and models decorated with bows, ribbons or Swarovski crystals. Sporty, casual, glam casual or glam; it is possible to find a pair of these shoes that will go with almost every singe style and outfit. My perfect combo is: a pair of comfy jeans, a T-shirt, a leather jacket and UGG boots.
           I know that some people rave about their inelegant look, shapeless form or even about how unsexy these boots are. For someone Ugg shoes might look like “slag wellies” but who cares? I don’t want to wear a pair of high hills while I’m doing my groceries, heading to the gym or going for a walk in a park or woods. Believe me or not they are perfect for the casual wintertime.
        UGG shoes are not cheap; however, they will cost you less than a pair of Tory Burch sandals, espadrilles from Jimmy Choo and rain boots from Burberry.
