A huge problem faced by many ugg lovers is to identify the perfect and best pair of uggs. Many small brands are imitating the real uggs because of their increasing popularity. Also many unauthorized brands are set to manufacture the fake uggs designed with cowhide or pig skin that may harm your skin. Therefore, you have to be careful while shopping for sheepskin boots. This article will help to save your dollars from shopping fake ugg boots.

Quality or real Ugg boots are designed with double-faced sheepskin that will ease your feet with comfort. Double faced sheepskin is a single layer of sheepskin maintaining its thermostatic nature with the inner as skin (plain) and the outer as fleece that keeps your feet warm in winter and cool in summer.

In order to lessen the price of uggs, some manufacturers are using single-faced material / pigskin instead of double-faced sheepskins. This will ultimately reduce the quality of ugg boots. But by looking closer you can find some tiny holes on the boot which states the boots are made of pig skin.

Be Careful while buying uggs:
• Usually, the stitching quality and the finishing design of the fake uggs is very meager when compared to the real ones. You can identify counterfeit boots by looking at the soles and logos. Soles of fake uggs are extremely rigid while the soles of the real ones are highly flexible.
• Genuine ugg boots are featured with much sheepskin fur inside the boots for fluffy appearance and warmth. Where as utility of ‘fur’ is quite less in fake ones and sometimes the fur seems to be slightly dull grey in color.
• The heel portion is much narrower in replicas than the genuine sheepskin boots.
• The shape of the front portion of the counterfeits is bit shorter while the front part of the real sheepskin boots has a rounder and longer finish.
• One can find UGG label on the back of the real ugg boots. The printing styles of letters on the label may differ or may have some gap in between the letters. In authentic boots, the letters will slightly overlap each other.
• Real ugg will have few Registered trademark symbols ® on its outsole whereas imitates lack this.
• If your elite choice is ugg classic tall / classic short, you should look at the bottom of the boot that contains the symbol ‘UGG’
• Authentic ugg boxes are strong and sturdy. Usually, the words “UGG Australia” are printed in the middle of the lid (top portion of box). Recent 2007 ugg’s boxes come in a flip top box.
• You can easily identify the replicas knowing its price. The cost of real boots is at least £140 (approx.). The price of ‘UGGS short’ and tall is at least £70 and £85 respectively.

    This is the second pair of uggs on sale I purchased in the last two years! My daughter wore them almost everyday right up until the spring. These boots look good with both pants and skirts and come in a number of colors. It is worth it to waterproof them if you intend to wear them on rainy or slushy days. Spots can be easily removed with a little white vinager and cold water!
