These long tall sheepskin boots have over 12 inches of soft, luxurious sheepskin in the upper, adding even more flexibility to a boot that already goes with just about everything. Wear ‘em full length for maximum warmth and comfort, or turn up the style and roll ‘em down to expose the soft shearling cuffs.

Ugg Classic Tall boots have been around at least since the 60’s, when Australian surfers migrated to California. But you’ve gotta go waaay back, to the rural Australian settlers who swore by sheepskin boots over 200 years ago, to find the roots of the boots. Their popularity hit it big in the 90’s, when Pamela Anderson and Oprah brought the look into the spotlight. These sheepskin boots are showing a strong season this year, as tall UGG boots are being paired with skinny jeans and miniskirts. Chocolate is this year’s hot color with jeans, and Black is back as a fashion basic.
These Classic UGG boots are crafted from twin-faced grade-A Merino sheepskin — top quality from New Zealand and Australia. Fully lined in natural shearling, these boots are designed for ultimate comfort and warmth. Wear ‘em barefoot (sheepskin’s naturally thermostatic properties keep bare feet comfortable in a wide range of temperatures). Fit should be snug, but not uncomfortable — the fleece footbed will conform to the shape of your feet. Like every product from Ugg Australia, the attention to detail is impressive: the Classic Tall has a reinforced suede heel guard, trimmed raw seams and the signature UGG® heel label.
Watch out for cheap imitations. Plenty of boots are made from cow suede, trimmed with a low-grade shearling fleece liner that’s sewn or glued in. Cow suede just doesn’t breath like real sheepskin. Those faux sheepskin boots are uncomfortable, sweaty and smelly. Save yourself the trouble and stay with real sheepskin.

Sienna Miller showed the world the wonders of Boho style, and the importance of wearing the right boots.
Way back in the 90’s, Pamela Anderson gathered huge attention with the look on Baywatch, though she received flack for a blonde moment earlier this year when she confessed her shock that sheepskin is actually made of, well, sheep skin.
I used to wear them with my red swim suit to keep warm - never realizing that
they were SKIN! I thought they were shaved kindly?
I wonder where she thinks leather comes from?
Fwiw, wool is produced by shearing sheep [aka “shaving kindly”]; the sheepskin in these boots is a
byproduct of the food industry.
This is the original that started it all — the Classic Shorts are Ugg Australia’s most popular women’s sheepskin boots.

Don’t let anyone tell you that these boots have seen their day. Sure, there are lots of cool new styles in sheepskin boots this year, but these short UGG boots are living up to their name — a classic style that’s always easy to wear, stylish and comfortable. In fact, demand this year is ahead of 2006, when the popular sizes were sold out everywhere well before the holidays.
These Ugg Australia boots are created from lavish twin-faced grade-A Merino sheepskin from New Zealand and Australia for ultimate comfort and warmth. Fully lined in natural shearling, these boots are designed to be worn barefoot (sheepskin keeps your bare feet comfy in a wide range of temperatures). Fit should be snug, but not uncomfortable — the fleece footbed will conform to the shape of your feet individually. These boots are well made: you can see the quality and precise craftsmanship in the Classic Short’s reinforced suede heel guard, raw seams and signature UGG® heel label.
Watch out for cheap imitations. Plenty of boots are made from cow suede, trimmed with a low-grade shearling fleece liner sewn in. Cow suede just doesn’t breath like real sheepskin. Those faux sheepskin boots are uncomfortable, sweaty and smelly. Save yourself the trouble.

Jessica Alba, Sienna Miller, Nichole Ritchie, Beyonce and Fearne Cotton have been setting the style in these short UGG sheepskin boots.
One of the big winners this year is the Mammoth, the new fleece-lined crocs for fall and winter — lightweight and warm, these are a welcome break from the traditionally klunky & heavy approach to winter shoe design.
Where to Buy
You can’t beat ShoeBuy.com. Free shipping & returns, a great 100% satisfaction guarantee, and a 110% price guarantee. As the world’s largest online shoe site, ShoeBuy has more crocs in stock.
What a great combination: the lightness and comfort of croc’s croslitetm construction and a warm, toasty fur lining — all in an easy slip-on shoe that provides support and protection in all kinds of weather.
A few seasonal twists
We’re talking classic crocs design here, with a few subtle but very important twists. The ergonomic Italian styling features a spacious orthotic footbed, an advanced toebox ventilation system, and non-marking slip-resistant soles. The sole is thicker than most crocs for better protection from puddles and snow. No side holes on these either, and of course the croslite is completely waterproof, so all in all your feet stay warm dry in a surprisingly wide range of conditions.
The anti-microbial synthetic shearling lining is super soft and incredibly durable. These removable liners are odor resistant and machine washable; here’s a pair of winter shoes that’ll feel as good in mid February as they did the first time you put them on. Remember, though, the fleece liners do make for a more close-fitting shoe, so we’d suggest ordering one size larger than you normally wear.
Tips for buyers
The Mammoth crocs are pretty popular, so common sizes in popular colors are already getting herd to find. They’re sold in unisex sizing, which is really Men’s sizing in disguise. If the site you’re buying from doesn’t translate, this can make getting the correct size for women a tad tricky — first, drop down down 2 sizes, then go back up one size to accommodate the shearling liner. So if you’re a Women’s size 7, you’d drop down to a Unisex 5, then one size up to a proper fit in a Unisex 6.
The Mammoth is also available in kids sizes — sure to be a pleaser at home, school and play.
Jessica Alba, cover girl on a recent issue of InStyle, enjoyed an afternoon chocolate bar and wore her chocolate Ugg Classic Short boots “all day during the cover shoot” in New Mexico, said creative director John Korpics.
We think that’s a better color choice than the lilac pair she was wearing last year, in the “Ugg and Pug” series, but it’s no surprise to see that Women’s Classic Uggs are living up to their name.
Here’s some news from Chicago, via Miss Stylologist on Ugg Australia’s new 1500 foot retail store grand opening. A savvy site from a smart woman who has a keen eye on the fashion world. I was especially impressed with her conclusion:
I think that despite what some may say, the UGG brand is really riding high, with product expansions, stores opening up all over North America, and a permanent fixture in the ad pages of Vogue, I think that UGG is fast becoming one of America’s most powerful affordable luxury brands.
