Sheepskin Boots Story
The History of Sheepskin Boots
It is not known when sheepskin boots,or shearling boots were first used by human.But we can imagine that far back when our ancestors were still hunting tribes they might use some animal skins to protect their feet in cold weather.
The animal skins used include cow skin,sheepskin,wolf skin,deer skin,and all kinds of others.
It is understandable that our ancestors,after many many tries and experiments,found that sheepskin is the best gift of nature.It is soft,supple,thermostatic.The fleece of sheepskin has excellent insulating properties and it is also resistant to flame and static electricity. Wool is considered by the medical profession to be hypoallergenic.
Time has come to 20th century.World War I,Australia.Pilots of aero fighers began to wear a kind of boots made of full sheepskin.This was a kind of footwear made of twin-faced sheepskin with fleece on the inside and with a tanned outer surface.They called it "fug boots",which stands for "flying uggly boots".
This is said to be the modern inception of sheepskin footwear.New Zealand also claims that it is their aviators who first used the fug boots.
There is no record that if this fug boots were massively manufatured or individually hand made.Later on,by the year of 1933,a company named Blue Mountains Ugg Boots began the massive manufacturing of the now famous boots:UGG boots.
However,disputes on the rights to manufacture the UGG boots rose with its name.Many companies and factories claimed their legal right to manufacture the boots.
More and more people begin to wear UGG boots,no matter they are ordinary people or celebrities.
The sheepskin footwear has become a world phenomena.
The Feature of UGG Sheepskin Boots
There are many features of this boots that is worthy mentioning.
Full Sheepksin.Unlike other animal skin footwear,UGG boots are made of full sheepskin.
Thermostatic.All sheepskin footwear have this kind of feature.Yet UGG boots,are made of top grade Merino Australian Sheep.This kind of sheepskin keeps your feet warm while disseminates the humidity of the feet.
EVA sole.EVA stands for Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate,a polymer used to absorb physical shock.This may seem a little bit geek.But the only thing you need to remember is that it is a sole used to make your feet feel comfortable while walking.
The quality of sheepskin,according to Wiki,can be categorized into 5.
(1) "No Visible Seed" - Visually free of seed contamination. This does not however mean the skin is completely free of seed, only visually free.
(2) "Light Seed" - Slight seed contamination visible in the wool but minimal mainly concentrated in the belly regions.
(3) "Medium Seed" - Light seed contamination is present over most of the wool surface but is concentrated around the belly area and the legs.
(4) "Heavy Seed" - Heavy contamination extending through the majority of the wool but especially prevalent around the belly area and the legs.
(5) "Burry" - Wool contaminated with hard seed. Can vary from light to heavy concentration. This level of seed can cause problems if it is not removed before fleshing starts as the rollers can sometimes punch them through the skin.
Mens Sheepskin Boots
Is there any mens sheepskin UGG boots?Yes,men can wear them.
As a matter of fact,UGG boots are uni-sex.That means both female and male genders may wear them.
What's more,from its history,we can easily understand that UGG boots are firstly worn by aviators,who,back in WWI,are mostly male.So why can't men wear a pair of UGG boots?
Of all the UGG boots models,more than 70% may be mens sheepskin boots too.
Caring for and Cleaning of Sheepskin Boots
Currently there are a lot of people that own at least a pair of UGG boots.Along with its beauty and comfort comes the questions of how to clean sheepskin,how to wash sheepskin.
It is correct to ask such questions because they do care their beloved boots.And with proper care and cleaning,a pair of UGG boots,slippers or sandals can offer years of comfort,warm and style.
Follow below instructions to care and clean your boots:
New UGG boots
1.Spray the sheepskin surface with wWater & stain repellant evenly,until it appears wet but not soaked.
2.Dry the boots in open air for at least 24 hours.Do NOT use direct heat or sunlight.
3.Lightly brush in one direction with a very soft bristle suede-nubuck brush to raise the sheepskin nap and natural tracking.
UGG boots after use
Whenever caring and cleaning your boots,follow strictly below guidelines:
1.Hand-wash only.DO NOT use a washing machine.
2.Moisten entire surface of sheepskin footwear with clean, cold water.

4.Apply a small amount of diluted Cleaner & Conditioner to a clean, wet sponge. DO NOT apply UGG Cleaner & Conditioner directly onto the footwear.

Sheepskin Boots Made in Australia
Currently there are two major origins of production.Deckers UGG Australia brand is producing their boots in China and Australia.All others ugg boots are produced in Australia.Some factories even claim that their boots are hand made.So generally speaking,sheepskin boots made in Australia are not necessarily UGG Australia brand.They can be other brands or even no brand.
Regardless the locations of manufacture,the majority of sheepskin used for the UGG boots are coming from Australia.
The Merino Sheep produces the world's top grade sheepskin.
The Merino is an economically influential breed of sheep prized for its wool. Merinos are regarded as having some of the finest and softest wool of any sheep. Poll Merinos have no horns (or very small stubs, known as scurs), and horned Merino rams have long, spiral horns which grow close to the head.
The next best sheepskin comes from China.
