Spot Fake Ugg Boots(I)
Are you thinking of buying some gift in this cold weather for your family or your loved ones? How about a pair of ugg boots , for they are warm, comfortable and never out of fashion.
Sheepskin boots may be the best gifts because of the ice-cool temperatures brought about by winter. Also you should know how to choose the best ugg boots. But the problem is where should you look for authentic UGG sheepskin boots? Sure, you might say that ‘there are actually lots of stores in my area selling authentic UGG sheepskin boots, but are you sure that they are indeed authentic UGG sheepskin boots? If you don’t know much about these, then you can check out the Wikipedia article about Ugg Boots.
There are something about how do you spot fake ugg. Now, suppose they all indeed sell Uggs in a tightly-bunched price range. How do you choose? Check out their looks. Here are several visible signs that give away fakes:
• If the boot’s labels show “Made in Australia” or “Made in New Zealand”, those definitely are fakes. Because they has been manufactured in China for some time now.
• You should check the quality, if the quality of the stitching is very bad, then it’s a fake. If it is obviously very bad, then the boots are fakes.
• Look at the store’s black-colored Uggs. Geniune black-colored Uggs have black-colored soles and black labels with the “Ugg” logo in white, whereas fake “black” Uggs have tan-colored soles and brown labels.
• If the “Nightfall” presented to you is any other color but Chestnut, it is a fake. Deckers only make Nightfall in Chestnut.
• If you see a “Sundance” in any other color but Chestnut Sand or Chocolate, it is a fake. Deckers have stopped making it in Black. There may be old stock around, but anyone selling large amounts of them is probably selling fakes.
• While still on the subject of boot color, take note that there are no “camel”-colored Ugggs. So if someone offers you one, bingo!
• In a genuine ugg classic short boots, the sheepskin fur around the boot matches the colour of the boot but the sheepskin fur at the bottom of the boot, where your foot sits, is always natural (or “cream”) in color.
• The sole of a genuine Ugg is about a half-inch or more, while the soles of fakes are very thin, like maybe ?-inch.
• Now try looking at the “size” label of their women’s and kid’s Uggs, if they have any. All the Euro, UK, and US sizes are shown on a kid’s Ugg, whereas the women’s Ugg only shows the US size on it.
• If a blue card or a brown “leather” pinned-on tag or a dust bag in a light brown or beige colour saying “UGG” or sometimes “Snow Boots” goes with the pair of Uggs, then it’s a fake. Most “innocent” purchasers are fooled by this seeming “attention to detail” or “extra touches”. The truth is that no pair of genuine “UGG Australia” boot has a pinned-on label or comes with a dust/protection bag or shopping bag!
• If you bought a pair of genuine Uggs, or one of your companions brought with him his genuine Uggs, try to compare your genuine Uggs with a fake side-by-side; a fake one that is the same “model” as your genuine Uggs either will be taller or shorter than yours.
