This August I had all of my family out visiting from Florida. Sandpoint, Idaho summers provide a welcome relief from the humidity of Florida and they all had a great time swimming in the lake. In the evening, my 82 year old mom and my two sisters all put on their cozy sheepskin UGG slippers. In fact, my mom wore her UGG Cozy II women’s UGG slippers around the house the entire time she was here. Not because the weather was cold but because of the comfort. She loves them so much she brought them all the way from Florida with her. If you ask her about her UGG slippers she’ll happily tell you in her charming Southern dialect, “Oh, honey, these are the most com-fert-a-bel things Awf put on ma feet in yeee-urs.”
My 82 year old father-in-law also wore his Byron men’s UGG slippers. Actually, he lives in those slippers and requires a new pair each year. They have a rubber sole and look like a driving moccasin so when he’s out and about they don’t exactly look like house slippers. Come to think of it, because I never see him in any other shoe I’m beginning to think his UGGs are the only shoes he owns.
Which brings up the point that UGG slippers aren’t just for winter but are wearable all year long. They are always great for birthday gifts, graduation, and “just because”. So remember that when you need to get a gift for someone, you don’t have to wait for Christmas to give a great pair of UGG slippers.
