Furry, Soft, And Cuddly: My New Ugg Boots
Not too long ago I broke down, opened up my purse and paid decent money for a pair of Ugg Boots. I’m not your typical female who loves to doll up, wear heels, and dresses up all the time, I’m the one who is usually walking around in a pair of tight blue jeans. Last year I took a trip to visit my friend in college and found these great pair of boots in her closet.
What makes these Ugg brand boots different is how much they weigh. They weigh practically nothing. The outer skin is actually sheepskin and it’s a kind of suede feeling, yet it has better thermal properties than suede does, so it keeps your feet warmer than traditional leather. The rubber bottoms are crafted from this really lightweight rubber and seem to conform perfectly to my feet.
Since my girlfriend and I wear the same size shoe, I wore these boots out one night right over my blue jeans. A nice flower top with puffy sleeves and I have to tell you I looked good. I just couldn’t get over how comfortable these boots were. The following morning, I put them back on, wrote her a check and told her to go get herself another pair.
If you can picture this, me and my friend, both pulling on each end of one of the boots until she falls back after I let go. This prompted a friendly punch to my arm. After we stopped laughing over how stupid we must have looked, I got online and bought the same pair that she had. This should end our fighting. It’s great too that we can wear the same boots out together, and since they go with anything, no one will notice because the rest of our clothes will be so different.
That was over a year ago, and we still talk about that little competition we had that day over a pair of boots. Both of us are still wearing our boots too. Linda introduced me to these boots and I think I’ll be wearing them for a very long time. And if they keep making and selling them, I’ll continue to buy. I’m so thankful for the Internet, there’s no stores anywhere near my town where I can buy them, I can get really cheap ugg boots too. I hear my laptop calling, and my credit card too.
