As you know from this site we love Ugg boots. However we recently bought a pair of Emu boots so that I could do a comparrison between them and my ugg boots. The first difference is obviously that Ugg is a much more well know Brand name so after that I was suprised to say that emu boots had the edge and were better overall.
To make it easy for you to choose here is what we found.
Desireablilty – Ugg win this due to be more well known however more and more celebrities have been seen wearing Emu boots and they have recently featured inĀ a numberĀ magazines.
Authenticity: Emu boots are made in Australia and Uggs are made in China so this must go to Emu.
Wool: Emu use 100% merino woll Ugg use a blend of Wools So another win for emu
Price. Emu win this by a mile Emu boots are often half the price of Ugg boots
Looks.. well you decide we think there is nothing to choose between them.
Colors: Both boots come in the standard, sand, black, chestnut and brown . However Emu australia also list Grey orange and pink
There are other slight differences such as the Emu’s have a double density sole. That aside we can’t help but conclude that if you are considering a pair of sheepskin boots this season and you aren’t a lable junkie then why not try the Emu Australia bronte Hi boots rather than the Ugg classic Tall boots. The money you’ll save (which can be as much as $100) will more than make up for the lack of an UGG Badge.
