FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
No, the UGG Classic Mini Platform Boots are made with genuine suede, which is not naturally waterproof. They are best suited for dry, cold conditions. To offer some protection against light moisture and stains, it is highly recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and sheepskin before wear.
How do I clean my UGG Classic Mini Platform boots?
For light dirt, use a soft suede brush. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized UGG cleaner and conditioner. Always apply the cleaner evenly to the entire boot and allow it to air dry naturally, away from direct heat. Avoid machine washing.
What is UGGplush™?
UGGplush™ is a proprietary blend of reclaimed wool and Tencel Lyocell woven into a durable backing. It provides the signature UGG softness, comfort, and warmth while being more sustainable.
Will the boots stretch out?
The sheepskin lining will naturally compress and mold to your foot over time, creating a custom, comfortable fit. The suede outer material typically maintains its shape well with proper care.
Are these boots true to size for kids?
Generally, UGG boots run true to size. However, the initial fit might feel snug due to the dense sheepskin lining. If you are between sizes, or prefer a looser fit, it is often recommended to size up. For children, it's always best to measure their foot or try them on.
Can these boots be worn in snow?
While they offer warmth, these boots are not designed for heavy snow or slush unless properly treated with a robust water and stain repellent. The suede can be damaged by prolonged exposure to deep moisture and salt.
What is the platform height?
The UGG Classic Mini Platform features a 1.5-inch platform sole, providing a fashionable lift.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too snug or tight initially.
Genuine sheepskin is designed to mold to the foot over time. Wear the boots for a few days, and the lining will naturally compress and adapt for a more comfortable fit. If discomfort persists, ensure the correct size was purchased, considering UGGs typically run true to size but can feel snug at first.
Suede appears stained or dirty.
Use a soft-bristled suede brush to gently remove loose dirt. For liquid stains or tougher marks, use a specialized UGG cleaning kit or a suede cleaner. Always follow the product instructions carefully, and clean the entire boot evenly to prevent water spots. Allow to air dry completely.
Feet feel cold or wet in damp conditions.
While UGG boots offer warmth, they are not naturally waterproof. For protection against moisture, it is crucial to apply a water and stain repellent spray specifically designed for suede and sheepskin before wearing them in wet conditions. Avoid wearing them in heavy rain or deep snow, as excessive moisture can damage the material.
Boots lose their shape or sag.
To help maintain the boot's structure, especially after cleaning, stuff the boots with acid-free tissue paper or use boot shapers while they are drying or in storage. Regular wear and proper storage can help prevent excessive sagging.

- Protection: Before first wear, apply a high-quality suede and sheepskin protector spray to repel water and stains. Reapply periodically as directed by the product.

- Storage: Store boots in a cool, dry place. Avoid compressing the sheepskin.
