UGG began with a dream: to bring Australian surfer Brian Smith’s favourite material to the SoCal beach scene. Since 1978, UGG boots have become a global hit; the eco-conscious sheepskin designs aren’t just practical, they’re coveted style icons, too. Fitting true to size, UGG slippers, like the trend-driving Tasman, are favoured for their versatility and lightweight feel, while platform styles like the UGG Ultra Mini heighten your outfit in more ways than one. Both women’s and men’s UGG slippers and boots are crafted with A-Grade merino wool, whose soft, hollow fibres wick away moisture and regulate temperatures – leave the socks in the drawer where they belong, as wearing them with your UGGs limits their natural cushioning and prevents the wool from moulding to your feet. When beach days are calling, turn to UGG sandals to bring the same supportive feel to your warm-weather edit.
