Are you trying to help the third world child get the Uggs? After all the childrens in the third world live mostly in the tropics and need the ugly winter boots. I'm sure the Uggs would be so comfortable and good for the feet in a climate that has 100% humidity, tempertures in the 90's and 100's, and many mysterious fungi...

I have always hated the so-called "classic" Ugg-- they're not even an acceptable cold-weather boot for anything other than slouching around the house, as the sole is flimsy, there is no support for the foot (certainly not the arch!) and no ankle support at all. Add in the ugliness of the "classic", and you have an all-around bomb. The Kona, while not so fleecy, is far superior when it comes to both structure and visual appeal. I get compliments on them whenever I wear them. I have the taller version of that boot, the Ugg ‘Kona’, and I love them!

It is the Ugg Classic, and its derivatives, that Manolo does not like.
