How To Care For UGGs: The JD Guide

Cold weather coming through? Must be UGG season. 

If you need to refresh last year’s pair, or protect your new ones right from the start, you’ve come to the right spot.  

The Ultra Mini to the Tasman. Classic boots, modern trainers, snug slippers. You know the styles. But do you know how to look after em? 

No stress. We’ve put together the ultimate guide on UGG care.  

How To Protect UGG Boots and Slippers

First thing’s first. The best way to make your UGGs last is to protect them. They’ll be feeling fresh and lasting longer. Just make sure the protector you choose is a tough one on the right fabrics. Could be leather, suede, canvas, so check first. 

Look out for waterproof protectors to take on the wet weather. And you’ll get some extra cover in case of any spills.  

Crep Protect’s Rain and Stain Shoe Care Spray protects your UGGs from the elements. It creates an invisible barrier over the soft upper. Most liquids will bead right off, so it’s easier to keep your boots or shoes clean in the long run. 

How To Clean UGGs

It’s easier to keep your UGG footwear feeling fresh when you stay on top of it.  

You should give em a quick clean and brush off any dirt with a suede brush after you wear them. Gently, though.  

If your boots or slippers need a little more TLC, you’ve got a couple of options.  

  1. Dry marks and stains? Try using a suede brush first. Check out the Crep Protect Suede & Nubuck Eraser for some extra help. 
  2. Got some serious damage to take care of? You’ll need to use some specialist cleaning stuff to do the work. You can tackle the deep cleaning with Crep Protect products like the Foam X or Suede Reviver. These ones are gonna be good for removing tougher marks and stains.

Remember. Sheepskin suede’s delicate. It absorbs water super easily. So don’t even think about putting these in the washing machine. Take some time to clean up with the right products instead. 

What are UGGs made of? 

The classic UGG boots are usually crafted with premium suede and sheepskin, with plush fluffy linings inside.  

Ones like the Classic Ultra Mini and Goldenstar Clog are full suede up top. Some other styles like the Lowmel trainers have a little canvas to mix things up. These fabrics are pretty delicate, so you already know you need to put the work in to keep em looking fresh. But it’s worth it. Trust. 

The UGG story 

Let’s go back to where it all started.  

In the late ‘70s, Australian surfer Brian Smith founded the brand. He wanted some boots to keep his feet feelin warm after hitting the California waves. 

The cosy sheepskin paired with a simple, stripped-back design was a big hit. The SoCal surfers couldn’t get enough.  

From the sand. And to the streets. UGGs are everywhere, and we’re so here for it.  

You’ve got the deets. Now get the look.

Needing your next pair of UGGs? Make sure they’re looking extra fresh, every time. Shop the latest pairs, and don’t forget to cop some care products while you’re at it.
