I think we all know how I feel about UGG boots by now. I have written about them here, here, and here ... oh and here too. The relationship is complicated to say the least. I don't like them but I respect them. I hate the people who wear them with just about anything -- mini skirts and trucker hats being the dirtiest combination. I hate the fact that I own a pair. I hate the fact that they will never go out of style no matter how ugly they are. I respect the little devils because they are comfortable as all hell and man did that company rake in the cash.Anyways ...
UGGs is attempting to branch out of their "UGGlyhood" with a new collection for Fall 2008. Be warned that you are about to see a flood of Uggs below. I am simply spreading the word because I know there are a lot of Ugg fans out there. Enjoy or totally hate me for the next ten minutes.
UGG® Australia 'Surfcat' Lace-Up Boot
Not a bad looking boot for something built for comfort. The lace-up detail on the side adds a little something-something to make these shoes a little more interesting. It also makes them more acceptable to wear out in public, much more acceptable than you basic Ugg boot.
Yep, Uggs went there. They went there with a snakeskin pair of original Uggs. It's actually ridiculous if I be can quite honest for a second. Snakeskin shoes usually equals luxury, discomfort ... a damn hot pair of stilettos. Uggs are not hot (well they arent), comfortable and should stick to being suede.
As insane as my distaste for these are, I am predicting that these shoes will be ridiculous popular and will probably sell out fast.
UGG® Australia 'Cargo III' Boot with Pocket
I am having a less than negative reaction to these boots. Not positive, let's not get crazy or anything but these boots do remind me of a pair of Camper boots that I love. My Camper boots looks like a cat; ears, tail and all. Anyways, back to the Uggs. These are more structured and less sloppy than your average Ugg and they have a sweet pocket.
UGG® Australia 'Endell' Short Harness Boot
This suede boot is quite a departure from standard Ugg style. It's kind of like a combination of a Frye boots and some shit-kicking boots that a cowboy would wear. Out of the new line of Uggs these have the most potential.
UGG® Australia 'Suburb Crochet' Boot
On to the first shoe ... This shoe combines a classic Ugg with the cardigan Ugg with a regular old boot. The end result? Well I could only imagine it is comfort. Style was clearly lost here. Sorry, just being honest. That's what I do.
