It is often said that suess has many fathers asics gel kayano 18 kopen , while failure is an orphan. Such is the case with Ugg boots, which have been a popular style of boots for over a decade now. Though there origins are in dispute, we do know that they were developed in either Australia or New Zealand. In ft, manuftures of Ugg-style boots from both countries were embroiled in bitter disputes with an Arican pany that owned the trademark to the na Ugg. The locals claid that “Ugg” was a generic term and therefore was ineligible for trademark protection. Who was right? Let us take a mont to examine the puzzling history of Uggs. What’s in a na? If you want to tre the history of anything, it is often best to start with its etymology. What are the origins of the word Ugg? While so surmise that it is simply a orter, catchier way to say ugly, there is ample evidence that Ugg boots were once called fug boots. Worn by aviators during the First World War, flyboys called them “flying Ugg boots,” or “fugs,” for ort. When the boys got their feet bk on the ground and civilians started following the faions of their heroes, the boot were known simply as Uggs. A small pany called Blue Mountains Ugg Boots began manufturing the new style in the early 1930s, and by the 1950s there were several makers of Uggs in both Australia and New Zealand. One reason local panies claim they ould be able to use the word Ugg to promote their brands is that the term appears to be a generic one. Closely related terms like ug, ugh, and Ugg have all been used to describe eepskin boots made in either Australia or New Zealand since the early 1970s, at the latest. While the ext origins are in doubt, we do know the na of the man who was responsible for taking Uggs global. In 1979, Brian Smith establied Ugg Holdings asics gt 2170 dames , Inc. in the United States. The forr Australian surfer had been using Uggs for years, as they were a popular form of fooear with surfers Down Under. Soon after Smith sold his pany to Deckers Outdoor Corporation in 1995, the boots beca a faion trend. They first appeared on the famous feet of faionable-conscious celebrities like Kate Hudson and Pala Anderson, which ant they were also appearing on the covers of countless magazines. Before long, it seed like every teenage girl in Arica was wearing them. In the blink of an eye the trend spread to Europe and then around the world. Sales of Uggs went from a respectable $14.5 million in 1995 to an incredible $689 million dollars in 2008, making them more than just a faion fad. They were a trend. To answer our original question, Deckers Outdoor Corporation was the Arican manufturer that held the trademark to the Uggs na. But in 2006, an Australian regulator agreed with the locals and removed Ugg from the register of trademarks. This ans that any pany that wants to make Uggs-style boots can use the word in their na. Styles As we ntioned, the word Ugg has always been used to describe boots that are made from eepskin. Tanners turn the wool into leather and the upper part of most boots is constructed with fleece on the inside. The soles are often synthetic and the stitching is typically prominent on the outside of the boot. In ft, the conspicuous outside stitching is often the easiest way to spot a genuine pair of Uggs. While it is true that most people purchase Uggs because they are faionable and trendy, they quickly discover that they are also fortable, well-made boots. Not only are they tough, but the natural animal skins and fibers help keep the feet toasty and dry. Who Buys Uggs? Because they are an establi faion trend, people who care about faion will always be their core custors, and that ans girls and young won. But you don’t go from annual sales of a $14 million to $698 million in thirteen years without expanding your custor base. Most of the panies that manufturer Uggs these days make models for girls, boys, n asics gt 2000 kopen , and won. So of the larger brands even offer boots or booties for infants and babies. Uggs for Won and Girls Since they are far more popular with the fairer sex, Uggs are available in a variety of styles and colors for female custors. In addition to the classic slip-on version, there are now le-up boots and heights that go from above the ankles up to the knee. The o most popular styles are the Short boots and the Classic Tall. For won who refuse to wear natural animal products, most manufturers offer a synthetic version of the boots at affordable prices. The following is an a eviated list of popular colors for girl’swon’s boots: chocolate, pink, sand, paisley, chestnut, terrotta, tallic gold, gray, magenta, and eggplant.
