Ugg boots in Sydney

For a long time I was under the impression that "UGG Australia" is the original Australian ugg boot.

How wrong! Only came to know last night when I tried to order from their website:

http://www.uggaustralia.com

I realised that the price is in USD and shipped from the States.

Upon further investigation I found that "UGG Australia" is nothing Australian, it is just a brand by a California based US company selling stuff made in China.

So where can I buy Australian made UGG boot in Sydney, of course at reasonable price? Perferably with a large style and selection.

"UGG Australia" even though not Australian, I do like their style and colour options.

Cheers!

    crafty american company realised 'ugg' wasn't trademarked, so they trademarked it and had a crack at anyone else then selling uggs.

  • pretty common for chinese companies to put 'oz' or 'au' or 'australia' in the domain name. you really need to vet sites thoroughly before buying from them.
