Fake Ugg Boots

Consumers should beware of fake ugg boots.  An ugg boot must be made of real sheepskin.  Due to the high cost of genuine sheepskin, one of the first warning bells will be a so called "ugg boot" advertised at a very cheap price.  Make sure you have the genuine article before purchasing. Genuine sheepskin will outlast many synthetic products.

Sheepskin is a natural product which breathes, absorbs moisture and provides a warmth and comfort superior to any synthetics. (Most synthetics become very smelly with wear). Real sheepskin has the wool tanned into the leather. Fake sheepskin can easily be recognised - if you part the fibres lining the boot with your fingers and there is a woven or knitted backing under the fibres it is NOT real sheepskin.
