Here are 4 types of children’s sheep skin boots
you can find on the Internet.
You have several choices of children’s sheep skin boots
to choose from on the internet. While you’ll mostly find
Ugg Australia sheepskin boots for kids in an array of colors,
there are other brands you should check out as well.
Ugg Australia is the best know ugg boot maker in the world. Contrary
to what you might think, these boots are not made in Australia
at all. This a divison of the Decker company and is an American
company making their uggs in China. So while it is true they aren’t
Australian made boots, nonetheless they are extremely well made.
In a quality test done by some fashion experts for an Australian
magazine, everyone was surprised the Ugg Australia sheepskin boots
proved to be of better quality than the majority of genuine Australian
made boots. These are very good boots. Their most common style
for kids is the Classic ugg. These come in black, chestnut, orchid,
cornflower blue, sand, and lilac. The Ultra for kids is also available
and has a more durable outsole than the Classic.
Minnetonka is another manufacturer of sheepskin boots for children.
They offer a Pug boot in several colors that like all sheep skin
fleece wicks moisture away from your feet. These boots tend to
run a little less in price than the super popular Ugg Australia
boots.
Another line of kids boots made out of sheepskin is Emu Ridge
of Australia. Again these boots are made in China and they use
cattle suede leather on the outside and wool fleece in the inside.
They may not use the highest quality sheepskin fleece available
but it’s still pretty good. I have a pair and they work
for me quite well. I’ve never taken them in the snow but
for around the house, I love them. And they were half the price
of Ugg Australia brand ugg boots.
If you are looking for the real deal, meaning 100% made in Australia
sheep skin boots, take a look at Jumbo Ugg boots by Binder Production.
These are made from the highest quality merino wool and are pure
sheepskin inside and out. They offer 19 styles of sheepskin boots,
shoes, and slippers for children. Because these boots are the
real deal they tend to look a little less tailored than say the
Ugg Australia or other brands. But I think that adds to their
charm. They ship direct from Australia and it only takes about
7-10 days to arrive in the US. Super fun.
Best places to check for Ugg Australia sheepskin boots for kids
are the UGG
Australia web site, Zappos
and Shoes.com.
All three offer free shipping and you have to check what they
have available. Sometimes they each run out of certain sizes.
Prices all run within $5 of each other. Note: At Zappos you might
want to check out the Western Chief kid’s Chooka boot. These
are also sheepskin boots for a little less money.
Minnetonka boots for kids can be found in light blue, pink and
golden tan at Shoebuy.com. Price is very good.
Shoes.com has Emu Australia boots for kids and at this writing
they were on sale.
Jumbougg.com can supply you
with many children’s ugg boot styles to look at. They also
have several infant styles to check out. Prices are more expensive
but it really is a different boot than all the previous.
An after thought: You may want to invest in some “ugg repellent”
spray if your kids are going to wear their boots outside a lot.
The repellent is sprayed on and allowed to dry. This will keep
cooking oil, water, and dirt from making a mess of the boots.
Buy this especially if you buy the Jumbo uggs. You can get the
repellant at Zappos
or Jumbougg.
