These ugg boots are knit, rather than suede or sheep’s skin, giving them a slouchy look.
The words ’slouch’ and ’style’ do not belong together, nor do the words ’slouch’ and ‘boot’ or ‘classic tall ugg boots’ and ‘fashionable’.
When I see these boots, I feel like the mother of some young, tortured emo kid. I should warn you, I’m taking on the big powers that be, here. Oprah recently promoted these boots as one of her favourite things of 2007. Now, I don’t want to piss off the O, some of Oprah’s favourite things are cankles.
I would be driven nuts by these slouchy things drooping around my calves. I want to say they’re warm, but shouldn’t a boot be snug to properly insulate against the cold?
Possibly for some kind of knit moccasin shortage, going on the Oprah Winfrey show, or smuggling small items across the border.
I may not be a famous talk show host with massive reach and influence but I think the slouch ugg classic tall has taken the ugg boots classic tall to uglier and the ’slouch’ to even further depths of fashion hell.
