UGG I love your shoes, just not your bags!

Ugg Australia Handbags

UGG Australia emerged on the fashion scene in the form of comfortable boots. Originally intended for Australian surfers, UGGs graced the feet of most females as the ideal errand-running shoe of choice. Pick up a celeb mag and you’re bound to find many celebs parading in their UGGS. This “shoe take-over” really worked for the company and the shoes have exponentially grown in terms of popularity over the years.

So I’m assuming with this background, the company thought, “Why not venture into handbags?” Unfortunately, for me it just doesn’t work and that cushy feeling I want on my feet just hasn’t translated well to shoulder-wear. Maybe they should just stick to what they know best?

    Agreed! Bad move, UGG. Such a case of not understanding your brand.

    I think i have to agree on this one as well! The only other thing that Ugg do that i like are the ear muffs. These feel as comfy on as the boots on a freezing cold morning!

  3. @Vanessa Hsieh There are some cases when we need to buy things which are gorgeous and beautiful than the branded. At those times, does the brand really matter?

    I totally agree with this blog! their shoes are amazing very warm and useful… but i wish i can say the same for their bags, they are just not flattering at all. They should just stick with what they know best and what their first and only concept was SHOES!

    I have been searching for a shoe company that manufactures quality shoes and the shoes they have on shelves have most of the features and technology needed to build my designs. I found Ugg’s shoe display at Journey’s in the Huntington Mall and was very impressed with your shoes. I have created several shoe designs including uppers and soles that will look great on the shoes you already manufacture. An opportunity of having Ugg’s Shoes taking a look at my design and giving me their professional opinion would be very much appreciated. Just a hint, Steve Erwin would have loved my shoe designs.

    I also have design ideas for handbags and clothing that will utilize the same designs as the shoes. I think you would like the color and detail of my handbags, shoes and clothing. All your merchandise has been manufactured with great care and quality and I hope you will give me chance and take a look at my ideas.

    El otoño ya ha llegado y con el un entretiempo revuelto, difícil, melancólico. Para vencer los cambios de presión y los duros acontecimientos de esta semana, que bien viene echar un vistazo a dos de los mejores escaparates de Madrid, en el cada vez mejor “Soho madrileño…
