Scoot Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 I tried to buy a pair of Uggs (brand of boots) for my wife for Valentine's Day. Nobody in town has them anymore. Apparently they're sold out all over. Does anyone know where I can get a pair of Uggs for my wife? I already went to plan B for Valentine's Day, but I'd like to get her a pair regardless.Thanks, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Almquist Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Well Scoot, I found them online at Amazon. I just googled "Uggs". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallieSweetie Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 Actually, it depends what style of Uggs your wife is looking for. The traditional boot is sold out nation wide, except for a few particular sizes. It usually runs anywhere from 115$ to $140.I don't know if your wife wants the "for looks" kind, but there's a subsection on the Uggs webpage for winter boots that will actually keep your feet warm. Most of the Ugg brand are for looks and of course the name. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scoot Posted February 13, 2008 Author Share Posted February 13, 2008 Cool- thank you both for the info!$140? She better love me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SmallieSweetie Posted February 13, 2008 Share Posted February 13, 2008 *laughing* She will. Not only are they the "height of style", they're super comfortable. So, that's the best of both worlds for most women. She'll love them and obviously love you. Have a great holiday! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Almquist Posted February 14, 2008 Share Posted February 14, 2008 No problem Scoot! I love my Ice Kings but a gal has to have boots to knock around town with (ones that won't give you weight lifter legs if you wear 'em too long!)! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TNFL Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 Sorry ladies, but uggs stands for ugly. These have got to be the worst looking boots I have ever seen. Almost as ugly as those designer purses. They all just scream "I have so much money I can waste it on garbage like this!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisa Almquist Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 But they are soooo comfy! I will step on ALOT of toes for this one but Birkenstocks and Crocs aren't the cutest footwear either but they rock in the comfy department. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polarsusd81 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 I have always told myself that I would not date a girl that wears them. I have an absolute hatred for them, not for any particular reason other than all the pop stars have to have them, so then everyone else does. People I know point them out in a crowd to see me turn green. I can laugh about it because it is really unfounded, but I don't like em and agree with TNFL. UGG = UGLY!!!

doughnut03 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 They make the same boots at Cabelas in anything from Deer to Kangaroo leather in higher quality for less, but my lady "NEEDS" Ugg(ly) boots because theyre trendy... Anyone remember Dr. Martens? Yeah, me either Stupid expensive trends... She gets a $140 pair of boots, so when it comes time to get say... new lures or an auger-believe you me that new "trendy" purse and pair of boots will find its way into the conversation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
polarsusd81 Posted February 18, 2008 Share Posted February 18, 2008 They are those ugly boots that the ladies are wearin. They almost look like seude and have the faux wool or is it real wool lining in them. Most girls wear them with their pants tucked into them or bunched up at the top, occasionally you will see a girl in a skirt wearing them. Here is a crochet version from their HSOforum. I would curse at you for making me go to the site, but the word filter would get mad. UGLY!!! Here is their original... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lisa Almquist Posted February 19, 2008 Share Posted February 19, 2008 Oh ok so your want to get some environmental info up in this discussion so boilerguy and polar and maybe now you can discuss UGGS at will, without abandon and no holds barred because you found a loophole that these boots could possibly conserve energy? Discuss away fancy men! PS. Is this what you meant boatfixer?? Maybe I'm not catching the drift? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
