Do u wear UGGS?

y/ynot





After helping popularize UGGs, Pamela Anderson is now boycotting the boots after learning they're made from real sheepskin.





"I'm getting rid of our Uggs," Anderson, 39, writes in her online diary.





"I feel so guilty for that craze being started around Baywatch days – I used to wear them with my red swimsuit to keep warm – never realizing that they were SKIN!"





It seems Anderson, 39, thought the boots' woolly lining was attached to a synthetic backing. In fact, the boots are made from sheepskin with the fur intact. "I thought they were shaved kindly," she writes.





"People like to tell me all the time that I started that trend – yikes!

Do u wear UGGS?
i never wore them in the first place, i thought they were ugly and it was a stupid trend anyway. besides that where i live they're not even popluar anymore. also, i'm a "think green" kind of person and i would never wear something that indangered animals

Reply:I love mine and I'm not sure I'de be able to give them up.
Reply:I don't care what they're made of, I would never wear them anyway because they look like slippers my gran would wear. They must be the most unsexy shoe ever! I know that's not the point of them, but seriously, who wants their feet to look like that????
Reply:Do you have to really kill the poor sheep just to make a pair of UGG boots?


The answer is YES. The sheep has to be slaughted to obtain their hide and fleece. Now once the sheepskin hides are taken from the sheep then the process of preparing the hide for manufacturers and ensuring the hides are up to export standard begins.





Woolskins are usually preserved with salt prior to being processed by tanneries. At the tannery the skins are processed in large vessels called paddles which vary in capacity from 3000 to 15000 litres. In contrast to hide processing, in woolskin processing mechanical action is kept to a minimum in order to minimise felting of the wool. Rotating blades on the paddles move the skins slowly and gently, and processing is performed at much higher float ratios (typically 20-35 litres of water per skin) than are used in hide processing.





Typically it takes about 10 working days for the skins to be tanned and finished ready to be cut into panels for ugg boots.





The outside of the boot is treal sheepskin





The Classic Short is UGG® Australia's most popular women's sheepskin boot! The Classic Short boot features lavish twin-faced sheepskin for the utmost comfort.
Reply:Idiot with big boobs. Shaved kindly? Could someone shave off my skin kindly?
Reply:This makes no difference to the fact that I won't wear them. They're the ugliest thing ever.
Reply:Don't care about ugly sheep





Uggs r cute and so comfy
Reply:I'm not sure if I believe that.


If they were seriously made from genuine sheepskin, I doubt they would be mass produced and sold for $130.





I personally love them.


But then again I am from the frozen tundra that is Minnesota...so they come in handy allll the time.
