Like wearing slippers in public--but better!
I bought these shoes in a light pink in the summer and I haven't taken them off since. They are versitile comfortable warm and ideal for walking long distances and shopping.
Just before buying them I'd been wearing strappy sandles and heals for 10-14 hours/day. After showing up for a peddicure with scabs and scars all over my poor feet my nail lady told me to try some Uggs. So I did. My feet have healed they are well insulated and stay moisturized because of the thick lining.
The uggs are so comfortable infact that they have inspired me to walk to work--1.5miles each way. How many shoes can you say that about? There is no break-in period and they feel like you are wearing nice slippers in public.
I don't worry about walking on ice in them because there isn't a heel to twist an ankle on and there is plenty of traction. Better than docs for the bad weather actually because the soles don't freeze and they keep your feet PLENTY warm.
There are only three drawbacks: the suede--I didn't treat it quick enough and now the water marks show from walking in the snow; and the casualness of them. As soon as I find uggs in something that works with a suit I'm set for life! In the meantime I wear them to walk to work change shoes in my office and then switch back into them if I know I'm not going to meetings for a while. The third is the height while I like the shorter boot for under jeans it isn't something that would look OK with anything else and certainly looks goofy by itself.
These shoes are in my main closet with the rest of the shoes I will never part with--my docs and birks. They belong in that elite shoe category of classic comfortable and well made. I can't wait to get another pair.
