Default Fake Uggs?

Not my cup of tea but one of my wifes friends has posted this link on Facebook singing their praises. Looks fake to me.

Probably one of the many fake sites taking money off people and sending nothing out... it was on the news in the last few days.

Australian Uggs are not fake but the ones the girls are after are made in china! (no really!)

I bought some from ugg Australia only to be told by the wifes sister they were not the trendy ones my wife wanted! i went into town with her sis and bought some from Shuu £160 and they were the right ones but made in china!

£310 on 2 pairs of boots FFS!

I still have the ozzy ones in the loft as they sent the wrong size and took 2 months to reply to my email!

An expensive minefield be warned!!

They say the fake chinese uggs are made from those raccoon dogs that they skin alive, if so that would be reason enough for me to give fakes a miss.

Yes exactly!

Now when I hear the words 'bargain UGG boots', all I can think of is those poor animals being skinned alive

it's not hard to find a genuine pair of the branded 'UGG Australia' boots, if you go on the website they have a list of all genuine/legal sellers on line and in the highstreet.

If you buy from a website or shop that is not on their list they are copies.

The problem with UGG boots is that some people thing that UGG is a brand that everyone copied, but fail to realise that UGG is the style, 'UGG Australia' is the brand, that's how people manage to rip off the branded product so easily.

Sadly I had a genuine pair a few years back, thinking they would help with my circulation, which they do! My feet are toasty warm when I wear them. The only problem is that I hate wearing them as I feel I am joining the chav brigade!!
