FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, these boots are water resistant, not fully waterproof. This means they offer protection against light rain and splashes, but they are not designed for heavy rain, snow, or walking through deep puddles. We recommend applying a suede protector for enhanced water resistance.
How do I clean the suede material?
For light dirt, use a soft suede brush. For tougher stains, use a specialized UGG cleaner or a suede cleaning kit. Always follow the cleaner's instructions and allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
What age group is a UK size 1 (Kids') suitable for?
A UK size 1 (Kids') typically fits children around 5-7 years old, but this can vary. It's always best to measure your child's foot and consult a sizing chart if available, as foot sizes differ greatly among children.
Can these boots be worn in snow?
While the boots offer some warmth and water resistance, they are not designed for heavy snow or icy conditions. The suede can be damaged by salt and excessive moisture, and the sole may not provide sufficient grip on ice.
How do I protect the platform sole?
The platform sole is durable, but avoid dragging feet or excessive scuffing on rough surfaces to prevent wear. Clean with a damp cloth if it gets dirty. Avoid harsh chemicals that could damage the material.
Is the UGG logo an embellishment or embroidered?
The UGG logo is featured as an embellishment, typically a sewn-on tag or embossed detail, showcasing the brand's signature style.
Are these boots true to size?
UGG boots are generally considered true to size for children's footwear. However, fit can vary by individual foot shape. If unsure, it's recommended to measure your child's foot or refer to UGG's official sizing guide.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel damp inside after light exposure to water.
While water-resistant, the boots are not fully waterproof. Ensure a suede protector has been applied and consider reapplying it. If damp, stuff with paper towels and air dry.
Suede appears dull or dirty.
Use a specialized suede brush to gently lift dirt. For deeper cleaning, apply a suede cleaner according to its instructions. Avoid scrubbing too hard to prevent damage.
Boots have lost their shape.
After wearing, consider using boot shapers or stuffing the boots with crumpled paper to help them retain their original form during storage.
Suede is stained with oil or grease.
Immediately apply cornstarch or talcum powder to absorb the oil, let it sit for a few hours, then gently brush off with a suede brush. For stubborn stains, professional cleaning might be required.

Care Instructions
Proper care is essential to maintain the appearance and prolong the life of your suede UGG boots. While they are water resistant, they are not waterproof and require regular maintenance.
- Initial Protection: Before the first wear, apply a high-quality suede and sheepskin protector spray. This enhances their water resistance and helps repel stains.

- Drying: If the boots get wet, stuff them with paper towels to absorb moisture and help them retain their shape. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Maintenance: Periodically reapply the protector spray, especially after cleaning or exposure to moisture.
- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Using boot shapers can help maintain their form.
