How to recognize fake Ugg boots

A big problem faced by many ugg lovers is to identify the best and perfect pair of uggs. Many smaller brands are imitating real uggs due to their increasing popularity. Also many unauthorized brands are engaged in making fake ones designed with cowhide or pig skin which can damage your skin. Therefore, you should be careful when buying sheepskin boots. This article will help you save money when buying fake ugg boots.

Quality or authentic boots are designed with double-sided sheepskin that will ease your feet in comfort. Double Faced Sheepskin is a single layer of sheepskin that maintains its thermostatic nature with the inside as fur (smooth) and the outside as fleece keeping feet warm in the winter and cool in the summer.

To reduce the price of uggs, some manufacturers are using single-sided/pigskin material instead of double-sided sheepskin. Ultimately this will reduce the quality of the boots. But when you take a closer look, you can find some small holes in the boot that indicate that the boots are made of pigskin.

Be careful when buying uggs:

• Usually the quality of stitching and finishing design of fake uggs is very poor compared to real ones. You can identify counterfeit boots by looking at the soles and logos. The soles of fake ugg boots are extremely stiff, while the soles of real ugg boots are very flexible.
• Genuine ones feature lots of sheepskin inside the boots for a fluffy, warm look. While the usefulness of the ‘hair’ is quite less in the false and sometimes the fur appears to be a slightly dull gray in color.
• The heel portion is much narrower on replicas than on genuine sheepskin boots.
• The shape of the front part of fakes is slightly shorter, while the front part of genuine sheepskin boots has a rounder and longer finish.
• One can find the UGG tag on the back of the actual UGG boots. The print styles of the letters on the label may differ or may have some spacing between the letters. On authentic boots, the letters will slightly overlap each other.
• Real uggs will have few ® trademark symbols on their soles, while imitations lack them.
• If your elite choice is ugg classic tall / classic short, you should look at the bottom of the boot that contains the ‘UGG’ symbol
• Authentic ugg boxes are strong and sturdy. The words “UGG Australia” are usually printed in the center of the lid (box top). Recent 2007 ugg boxes come in a flip top box.
• You can easily identify the replicas knowing their price. The cost of the actual boots is at least £140 (approx). The price of the ‘short’ and tall UGGS are at least £70 and £85 respectively.
