UGG

UGG is a comfort footwear brand best known for sheepskin boots, slippers, and relaxed everyday styles. The story begins in 1978, when Australian surfer Brian Smith brought Australian sheepskin boot tradition to Southern California. The style became popular with surfers and later turned into an everyday fashion staple. At Sole Provisions, the UGG collection includes Classic boots, Tasman slip ons, slippers, slides, sneakers, and kids' styles, and it sits naturally beside our wider women's boots, women's slippers, and men's slippers selections.

From Surf Beaches to Everyday Wear

UGG started in California in 1978 and was later acquired by Deckers in 1995. Today it remains part of Deckers Brands, which is headquartered in Goleta, California. What began as surfers' warm up footwear is now a brand that feels just as at home indoors as it does on the street. If you like cozy footwear, you may also enjoy EMU and Pajar.

Sheepskin at the Heart of the Classics

Sheepskin is central to the Classic line. Twinface sheepskin combines a suede exterior with a soft wool interior, and the natural material helps regulate temperature and manage moisture. The Classic Ultra Mini has a 17mm Twinface sheepskin upper and a shorter shaft for easier on and off wear. Browse more cold weather picks in our women's boots, men's boots, and kids' boots.

Tasman and Other Slip On Styles

The Tasman II has a lower slip on silhouette that works particularly well for casual everyday outfits. For more easy wearing options, explore our women's slip ons and men's slip ons.

Slippers for Indoors and Out

Slippers such as the men's Olsen, with a full grain leather upper and a molded rubber outsole, can be worn both indoors and outside. The Ansley is another slipper option. Compare more cozy styles in our kids' slippers, and see Kamik for winter ready options.

Slides and Sneakers

UGG also makes lighter styles, including the Goldengaze Slide, Peakmod, and Lo Lowmel. For warm days, browse our women's sandals and women's sneakers, or compare Teva and OluKai.

Comfort Details by Style

UGGpure and UGGplush wool blends appear in selected insoles and linings, and some styles use sugarcane EVA outsoles for a lightweight feel. Features vary by style, so check each product page. Care for your pairs with our shoe care products, and add women's socks or men's socks for extra comfort.
