UGG Australia® and global brand Sheepskins Downunder® were established in 1981 and are Australian tanned, made, and family owned. We use genuine Australian twin-face sheepskin, processed exclusively in our own tannery—the last remaining sheepskin tannery in Australia, using sustainable traditional methods. Look for the Golden 1st Stitch tag inside every pair for 100% authentic, traceable UGG boots.
