Boy uggs

When the US co Deckers Outdoor bought Ugg Australia in 1995, In all probability it thought it had made a sensible addition to its portfolio of footwear brands. Ugg was located as highend luxury footwear, Most common for its sheepskin boots, Preferred by Californian surfers. In 2000 a wily PR person sent some to oprah, Aware of the potency of her endorsement. She loved them so much that she bought 350 pairs for her staff and displayed the Ultra boot on her Favorite Things show. Ugg took the train mega, Becoming the footwear of preference for Alisters and wannabes.

Presently, In england, Beliefs are divided. Teamed making use of a bomber jacket, Miniskirt and black leggings, The boots form part of the staple uniform for a generation of younger ladies. Sloaney girls love putting them on with jeans tucked in. Some members of the style press wear them for comfort(Though they take them off at the door before the shows). But plenty of people hate them let's call it the Marmite effect. And as they aren't famous for giving you great legs, These are not keen either.

UGG Boots Men opened its first British stand alone store, Within your Westfield centre, The united kingdom, Last fall months. People queued to hold in, And recent figures show that Ugg sales were up 57 per cent on yr after. (Is this brand recession-proof?) Right after that debut another shop opened in Covent Garden and the queues formed again. I thought we would join them.

Typically all these windows

Covent Garden is a popular location, But I was flabbergasted Ugg had chosen a unit with the traffic of Long Acre and brands such as M and Next for company, Not cool Neal Street. It's easy to come around, Although a bit narrow men's left, Women's on the right and children's at the back. Pride of place is not surprisingly given to the trademark sheepskin boot. These days could decide among fuchsia, Aqua green and limegreen(Plus the original tan, Saying and black) And you could decide among knitted, Canvas or degree exteriors. It's a classic style that has proven stamina. The shoe range(Launched nationwide last September) Can be another matter. Freezing didn't get it. And at 120 a pop for fundamental sandal, Or 35 for about a sheepskinlined flipflop, The new collections also felt pricy.

The store wasn't that busy marriage ceremony of my visit, Although I know it is really not the norm here. What did mystify me was how much boxes the salesgirls seemed to bring out for each customer. I know that 'my first Uggs' could very well be an early fashion highlight of a girl's life, And she'll want to try on every pair in every colourway, But I wondered if this articulated the queues. When I arrived there have been five staff on duty, Though three of them inexplicably vanished. Those who were left tried valiantly to get over the customers but some inevitably drifted off. One woman ahead of me who did manage to get served bought her daughter boots and balletstyle pumps, Accumulating a total sale of 200. It's not anything I would choose. I don't feel it has extended the brand poorly well into new areas, Nor is the storefit actually impressive. But I take my hat off to UGG Boots Men's business owner flair.
