It's easy to find your perfect fit with UGG Since 1974, by using either our Size Chart, or our At Home Size Guides, found here. 

It is important that your boots are initially very firm as sheepskin does stretch. With consistent wear, the wool moulds beautifully to your feet and will stretch approximately half a size. 

In a word – yes. All genuine sheepskin stretches, so if your UGGs are constructed from sheepskin (which all authentic UGGs should be), you can expect your boots to stretch over time. This is precisely why you should ensure your UGGs are snug and cosy when you first try them on, as they will stretch about half a size over time.

When choosing your size at UGG Since 1974, you should choose your ordinary shoe size, and certainly avoid “sizing up a size” like many synthetic sheepskin boot manufacturers recommend. If you buy a larger size than normal, and factor in that the boot will stretch, you’ll be left with UGGs which are no longer a warm, cosy fit for you. 

While you can chose to wear your boots with socks, UGG boots were originally designed to be worn without socks. The natural fibers contained within the sheepskin, allow your feet to breathe and in actual fact, a key indicator of wearing genuine UGGs, is that they do not smell with consistent wear. This is due to the natural fibers found within the skin itself. 

However, as wearing socks is a personal preference, we recommend only wearing socks made of natural fibres such as wool or cotton, to ensure any synthetic materials do not damage the natural fibres within the wool.

Colour: All of our products are available in any of our sheepskin colours, but it won't necessarily always be listed online. If you'd like to order a product in a colour not shown, simply choose another colour from the listing, and then leave a note at the checkout about the colour you would like them in. For example, if you are looking at a Designer Slipper and would like them in Cloud, please choose another colour designer slipper, and then leave a note at checkout such as "PLEASE MAKE IN COLOUR CLOUD".  

Style: If you’ve visited one of our retail stores before, you’ll know that there are literally hundreds of ways you can customise your UGGs to make them your very own. We don’t have every style and variation listed online, but if you’re after something you’ve seen or ordered before, be sure to send us an email at hello@uggsince1974.com.au  and we can help you design your UGGs, and then create a special listing for you to allow you to purchase them online.

Every attempt is made to provide a true colour representation in our website's images. However, colour may vary slightly from those displayed on our website due to the natural characteristics of the sheepskin. Please note, colour representation is also dependent upon individual settings on your computer or mobile device.

Over time, sheepskin naturally compresses with consistent pressure. To ensure your UGG boots will last for years to come, we intentionally handcraft our UGG boots with replaceable innersoles. This unique feature allows our valued customers to replenish the luxurious comfort of our boots when desired without having to purchase another pair. Replacing innersoles increases to longevity of the boots and optimises both comfort and warmth of the boots. You can find our replaceable innersoles here.

UGG boots are an Australian icon, and in Australia, the word "ugg" has been widely used to describe sheepskin boots for more than 50 years. 

Genuine UGG boots are made in Australia, using double face sheepskin with fleece on the inside, a tanned exterior and a rigid, non-slip sole. The majority of the world's UGG boots are now manufactured in China or other parts of Asia, so it is always important to check where your UGG boots are made before you buy. Read more about genuine UGG boots in our Blog Post.

Yes! In fact, we are one of the oldest manufacturers of UGG boots in the world, having been proudly manufacturing UGG boots in Australia since 1974. 

All of our slippers and boots are made from A-Grade double face Australian merino sheepskin and are the highest quality 100% Australian made UGG boots available. There are many different UGG brands in Australia, but finding high quality UGG boots can be tricky business. It is important to recognise the different qualities in sheepskin, workmanship, country of origin, and to always ensure that the UGG boots you purchase are 100% made in Australia (and you can check the sew-in label to be sure).

You can learn more about how to determine which UGG boots are genuine here. 

No. UGG® (sometimes also known as UGG Australia) is owned by an American company, Deckers Outdoor Corporation, and their boots are mass produced in several Asian countries including China and Vietnam. Interestingly, UGG Australia has no real connection to Australia. This company trademarked the term “ugg” in 130+ countries around the world despite the fact that "ugg" has been used as a generic term for sheepskin boots in Australia since the 1960’s. Australian companies fought and reverted the trademark for use of the word "ugg" in Australia. However due to the the expense of litigation and different rules about trademarking, Deckers Outdoor Corporation currenty retains the trademark in other countries. You can learn more about the differences between UGG Since 1974 and Deckers UGG in our blog post here. 

No. We are not the only UGG manufacturer in Australia, but there are only a handful of other manufacturers left in Australia, and an even smaller number who make their Ugg boots from start to finish in Australia. We are the only registered manufacturer in Queensland.

It is important to be discerning when purchasing UGG boots in Australia, as most Australian companies are now having their uppers sewn in China, and then imported to Australia where the labels and soles are added, but still operate under the "Australian Made" banner. Always check the sew in label to ensure your UGG boots are 100% made in Australia. You can learn more about how to find genuine Australian made UGG boots here. 

Yes! UGG boots are designed to be worn both indoors and in the elements. However, it is important that your UGGs are protected as any water or oil that comes into contact with the suede will damage it. We highly recommend that you use a suede protector spray on your boots before use, which will allow the boots to repel water and keep them clean. You can re-use your protector spray every six months in order to maintain a protective coating on your boots.   

As the boots are made from genuine sheepskin and suede leather, they can never be made entirely waterproof due to the natural characteristics of the wool. Therefore, our products should never be machine washed, submerged in water or worn in exceptionally wet conditions. Should your UGGs get excessively wet, pull out the innersoles and hang the UGGs upside down to allow them to dry naturally and brush with a suede sponge. 

Black UGG boots do inevitably transfer colour due to the vivid shade of black sheepskin we use to handcraft our boots. However, we use a natural coloured innersole within the boot to inhibit colour transfer to the sole of the foot.

The boots should only transfer colour for the first few weeks of consistent wear before this issue ceases to exist. During this period, please be mindful of wearing lighter clothing that will be in contact with the skin as the colour will potentially transfer. 

Black UGG boots are the only colour in our range where you are likely to experience dye transfer. If you are concerned about this, we strongly recommend choosing an alternate colour other than black. 

Yes. We proudly stand behind the quality and workmanship of our UGG boots and we happily offer a 12 month manufacturer's warranty on each and every pair of UGG boots we sell.

Yes, in some cases we can help you to repair your boots.
