My New Ugg Boot Friends
It wasn’t that long ago that I finally took out my credit card and paid a good price for a pair of Ugg Boots. I’m not your typical female who loves to doll up, wear heels, and dresses up all the time, I’m the one who is usually walking around in a pair of tight blue jeans. Last year I took a trip to visit my friend in college and found these great pair of boots in her closet.
What makes these Ugg brand boots different is how much they weigh. They weigh practically nothing. The outer skin is actually sheepskin and it’s a kind of suede feeling, yet it has better thermal properties than suede does, so it keeps your feet warmer than traditional leather. The rubber bottoms are crafted from this really lightweight rubber and seem to conform perfectly to my feet.
Being the same size as my friend, we went out one night and I wore them snugly over my jeans. Topped the outfit off with a flowered print button down, and I was looking hot. At the end of the night, I couldn’t believe how comfortable these boots were. The next day, I put them on again and told her I would pay her for these, and she could go out and get herself a new pair.
If you can picture this, me and my friend, both pulling on each end of one of the boots until she falls back after I let go. This prompted a friendly punch to my arm. After we stopped laughing over how stupid we must have looked, I got online and bought the same pair that she had. Now we obviously don’t have to fight anymore. It’s great too that we can wear the same boots out together, and since they go with anything, no one will notice because the rest of our clothes will be so different.
It’s been a year since that trip to see my longtime friend Linda, we still talk on the phone about that day we fought over a pair of boots. And we both still wear our boots all the time. It was Linda that first showed me these boots, and now I’m a loyal fan and customer. Oh well, as long as they keep making them I’ll keep buying them. The Internet has really saved us, there isn’t anywhere in town where I can get them, but online there’s hundreds of stores that sell them, I can get Uggs for cheap. I hear my laptop calling, and my credit card too.
