Ugg Boots

Ive just got a pair for the Mrs

First pair i ordered my money was refunded they wasn't actually in stock

I think they are dreadful , why do all the girls want to wear the same things ?

They don't even look nice

Be very very careful if you purchase these on line .... they are one of this years "hot must have"

I have heard of loads of Fakes out there and many many people being "had" !!!!!!!

Thanks for the heads up

I heard this on the radio, saying websites are been shut down everywhere due to selling fake goods.

Still dnt mind paying some but few people said to me that they bought them for like £110 Which i wouldnt mind paying

Shame dont think my GF realised what a tight **** i am when she met me

RRP is around £150, no one can get hold of loads and Decker actively discourage stockists from offering discount. Buy them for under this and they will be dropships from Replica Tycoon or the like.

Decker products are sourced from China anyway and 90% of Decker branded UGG boots for sale via the internet are fakes.

Interesting reading on Wiki regarding trademark registration and Decker's attitude to manufacturers in Australia.

They may not be the ones as bought by some starlet seen in Hello/OK/Whatever magazine from the large Corporate American company, but they are at least made in Oz using traditional Merino Sheepskin.

They are chuffing hideous.

I never miss an opportunity to remind my wife/daughter of this.

It's fun.

Fair play to the Australian manufacturers sticking two very large fingers up to Decker over this. Decker does not even have registered trademark rights on the style in Australia.

Happy days in that case!!
