uggs boots, also spelled ugh boots and UG boots are a style of sheepskin boot, with wool as the coating interior and exterior surface of a tan used by men and women. Ugg boots often have a synthetic sole, although this is not universal. Uggs are popular with all adolescents, used by girls with mini skirts, trousers, and jeans tucked into boots. boots uggs are also popular with children, wearing jeans or tracksuit pants into them more often. [edit]

In Australia and New Zealand, sheepskin boots have been popular among people in rural occupations, such as sheep shearing, with easy access to raw materials. Their popularity increased as a result of War World and World War II, when they were popular with aviators, because of their need to keep warm in non-pressurized aircraft at high altitude. [Edit] A exposure of an aviator costume of the First World War in the Canadian War Museum cites the term "fug" boots. Ugg boots have also been very popular with surfers and competitive swimmers since at least the 1960s to keep out of hot water. The terms ugg boots, ugh boots and ug boots have been used as generic terms for sheepskin boots in Australia since 1950 and 1960, [1], when it first appeared in advertisements and other publications.

The natural properties of sheepskin results in thermostatic benefits. Thick fiber fleece on the inside of the boots allows air to circulate and keep the feet at body temperature. [2] synthetic leather boots and imitation do not have these properties and sheepskin boots are highly prized for their effectiveness. [edit] uggs boots are designed to be worn without socks in order to maximize benefits of sheepskin.
