It’s so crazy to me because I still have a pair of Uggs from 2012- 13 before they stopped selling them in America & they’re still held up! You can most definitely tell the difference…
OK, so a couple years ago I wanted to contact UGG about my coral midcalf favorite pair of UGGs. They were faded, but I loved them and I wanted the insides redone. They were very sentimental importance. I went on the Internet found UGGs started texting and then ended up having a conversation after this sweet girl at the other end of the phone had asked questions. Where were they purchased etc. etc. and I didn’t quite understand and so then when we were on the phone, she said those aren’t our products. I didn’t realize that I was calling Australia or that Australia was calling me and sweetest person in the world telling the story that that’s two different companies although it seems like it’s the same thing and not a bad thing to say out of her mouth and she was just wonderful, so I am not surprised and I’m glad you put that out there. I’m sad that it took like three months for you to get your UGGs though ! and I really do like the stylishness of UGGs when my daughter was little we found her a pair of red cranberry uggs and the zipper was steel ( lol no just metal ) with rainbow that went up the back center with a loop for pulling ! I can’t imagine how much warmer Repair from Australia will be. I have a pair of to the knee UGG that zip up and I can wear those jeans and a tank top where it’s freezing because they keep me so warm even though they’re not real wool!! Fun random fact, if you like Sam Edelman shoes and you are around 50-ish younger or older … Also, if you used to walk around the mall and shop in the malls at the age of 20+. Sam Edelman is the Sam in Sam & Libby. I love Sam Edelman. I usually don’t even have to try on the shoe. I just look at it and whether I get them at Nordstrom rack or TJ Maxx or Marshalls on the situation I would also buy them online and at Nordstrom‘s but I like the price point much better when I find them at the other stores, sooooo two januarys ago , Nordstrom rack is having a ridiculous sale on their boots and shoes so of course they stack them up high and inside one of the boxes included little booklet to a pair of boots I purchased. I open it and there’s a little story about Sam Edelman and how he used to be Sam & Libby 😊and I just loved to learn this …it loved that story in my 20s a good price point you weren’t gonna keep them forever but they were super cute and trendy and not expensive and it was just fun to see that because I love Sam Edelman sho
Yes! I have a pair from early 2000 they are sheep skin but made in china. They’ve held up! I just noticed when a month ago I got some slippers and within a week they started getting all nasty and my feet weren’t even warm. I went in a deep dive research, I ended up getting some since 74 too! Waiting for March to come 😅
Ugg since 1974 also sells directly in the US under the brand Wild Wool Australia. I'm surprised yours say Ugg on the back as they say on their website that they will not include Ugg on the label for international orders because of the trademark issues. I wouldn't consider Uggs in US to be fake but rather sleezy lol. The quality of the wool used to be so soft in the past and with the blended and recycled material it's no longer soft. Not sure if they are actually trying to be sustainable or only cut costs down on production. All the classic boots are $40-60 more than what they used to cost years ago!
there's a few holes in your story. But overall, I enjoyed it. I read his book and he was just a college grad, tried out corporate america for a minute. Then went to California to mess around with surfing and then had the idea to produce ugg boots. That's when he then made contacts with ugg makers in australia and bring them to cali. If you ever get the chance to hear his full story, Brian lost his company several times and somehow magically got it back. It was some divine intervention
Technically not fake because they're still made by deckers but not the real uggs from Australia. So not what you think they are but still not fake, if that even make sense lol
This is a great video. I’m surprised it doesn’t have more views. Very interesting story. FYI- on their website now it says if you order from outside Australia or New Zealand, the boot will have a logo that says “since 74” instead of UGG

Thanks checking out a video from a small channel! This story is wild, right??

Does the sizing or fit differ between the American and Australian UGGs? If it takes that long to ship I want to be sure I order the correct size

Thank you so much for this video! I was going to buy from the American ugg, but now I'm going to order from the Australian one.
WTF i had no idea 😮
Right!! I can’t believe this has been swept under the rug for so long!
How did you get yours with Ugg on the back?
i was wondering the same thing! because the website now says that they ship with a different label outside australia/nz
They just recently changed it
Do the ultra minis from the Ugg 1974 cover your ankle or no? I’m trying to figure out how similar or different they are from the Ugg ultra mini
You call that “coffee ☕️”???!😂😂😂

He tried to get the surfers on board…😆
What a shocking truth! Thank you for this vid. Can you please do a comparison with the american ugg boots and the australian uggs boots please 🤗
OMG I'm so happy I didn't purchase a new pair before seeing this
Who knew they’ve been fooling us for YEARS! 😂
oh I am PISSED! I just bought the mini Bailey Bow, and you're telling me they're fake?!?!?
Technically not fake because they're still made by deckers but not the real uggs from Australia. So not what you think they are but still not fake, if that even make sense lol

Business is hard, look at mcdonalds.

Thanks Meghan! Trying my best!
