Ugg boots - get your Uggs from Kurt Geiger

January 10th, 2009

Love your Uggs? There’s a report in The Telegraph today saying that one of the leading importers of Ugg boots into the UK, women’s shoe and boot retailer Kate Kuba, has gone into administration. And there are fears that this might mean a shortage of Ugg boots and other styles of Uggs in the UK.

But don’t panic, Ugg lovers, as luckily Ugg boots are still available at Kurt Geiger - short Uggs, tall classic Uggs, animal print Uggs, silver Uggs, Ugg shoes and even an Ugg aftercare kit.

See below for some of our favourite Ugg boots from Kurt Geiger, or you can:

Uggs and Ugg boots - what are they?

Ugg boots were traditionally sheepskin (and sheepskin lined) boots worn by Australian sheep shearers. Ugg is the brand name so when you buy an Ugg boot or an Ugg shoe you can be sure it is a genuine Ugg. Ugg have expanded the range to include different types of Ugg boot, Ugg shoes and other types of Ugg - but they also continue to make the ever-popular sheepskin short Ugg boot and tall Ugg boot, in colours including tan, cream, brown and black.

I love Uggs and Ugg boots - mainly because they are one of those fashions that were very on trend, and then some fashionistas tried to declare that Uggs were like, so over. Sadly for them no-one (including Kate Moss) listened, and Uggs have gone from strength to strength.

So keep wearing your Ugg boots, particularly in the sub zero temperatures we are now enjoying. You don’t have to be an Australian sheep shearer to wear Uggs any more than you have to be in the Russian army to wear a military style coat.
