UGG Australia's story began in the late 70's when an aspiring professional surfer needed something to keep his feet warm between waves.  Since then UGG has become the single largest purchaser of grade A merino sheepskin & wool in the world.  Made famous by the Classic Tall & Short, UGG has now expanded its product line into dressier styles, such as flats and heels for women, and shoes & boots for men.  Each shoe is crafted with 100% genuine Merino wool and sheepskin for ultimate comfort in the sun or snow.
