Description

In 1978, UGG, an American firm, was established in Southern California. In order to provide Americans with access to the warm sheepskin boots that were so popular in Australia, Australian surfer Brian Smith and his business partner Doug Jensen founded it. Since then, the company has changed the fashion of comfortable footwear and shifted from petroleum-based EVA to renewable materials like sugarcane grown in rainwater. Details like the recyclable fabrics utilized for the white plaid laces and sand accentuate the shoe’s monochromatic style. The UGG logo is emblazoned on the outside heel and tongue.
