Need a GOOD pair of uggs...

[melbel]

try Emu brand they are a geelong company and I am sure you will find an online stockist....hubby sells them at his store and they have an awesome reputation...I love mine!

Thanks Mel! Considering your DH sells them, do you know about sizing? Is it true that you should get a size smaller than you normally would because they stretch? I think this is the mistake I made last time. (just noticed your ticker - CONGRATULATIONS!!! )

DH and I both brought a pair in Cootamundra (country NSW) years ago from a sheepskin/wool store - I brought the long lace up ones and spent well over $100 but I got them too big and could never wear them so gave them away. DH STILL has the same pair and they are still in great condition. The pair I got last year from Target have a hole in the toe and a tear where it meets the sole

Hubby says they are fairly true to size...the sheepskin fluff can compress a bit but generally not too bad......for example i wear 6 and a half in a shoe but got a six in an emu cos they only do full sizes......I think a full size smaller may have been too small...half a size was okay though......

OK, thanks Mel, will see if I can find a stockist online.

The Man took me past a place, I think near the Blue Mtns that did all skin stuff, but I can't remember what they are called or if they are still there.

I will ask him when he gets home a bit later.

ooooooooooh glad i saw this, had just been looking at ugg australia, had no idea they were american owned, what a crock!

[Willow]

Netix, there are a few places in the mountains but I'm too prg to go for a drive up there and then not find what I want...even though it's only probably 30mins away!

Willow - such a bogan I need a new pair (sshhhh - the REALLY west part of me is coming out) and we are heading away for a few days in the next week or so. Lucknow has a skin shop and sell them (near Orange) and near the IL's so I will check out their stock if you haven't found anything before then. Size?? Style??
