Product Information
Full details
The UGG Tasman GTX is designed for adults seeking versatile, weather-ready footwear. Its key benefit is providing reliable warmth and waterproof protection without sacrificing the comfort UGG is known for, making it suitable for various conditions. A potential caveat is that while waterproof, the suede material may require specific care to maintain its appearance in harsh weather. This slip-on shoe combines waterproof suede, a Gore-Tex membrane, and a plush UGGplush lining for comfort and grip. It features a durable Vibram outsole, a supportive sugarcane EVA midsole, and a design optimized for easy wear and thermal insulation, even in temperatures as low as -20ºC.

FAQs
Are the UGG Tasman GTX truly waterproof or water-resistant?
The UGG Tasman GTX features a waterproof suede upper and a Gore-Tex membrane, making them genuinely waterproof. They are designed to keep your feet dry in wet conditions.
What is the temperature rating for these shoes?
The shoes are designed to keep you warm in temperatures as low as -20ºC (-4ºF).
How do I clean the suede exterior?
Use a soft suede brush to remove dry dirt. For stains, a specialized suede cleaner or a slightly damp cloth can be used gently. Always allow the shoes to air dry away from direct heat.
Can I wear these in snow?
Yes, the waterproof construction and Vibram outsole provide good protection and traction in snowy conditions, provided the snow is not excessively deep.
What is UGGplush™ lining?
UGGplush™ is a blend of wool and lyocell (Tencel™) fibers, designed to provide the plush, moisture-wicking, and warm feel characteristic of UGG products.
Do these shoes offer good arch support?
They feature a sugarcane EVA midsole that provides good support. However, for individuals requiring significant arch support, consider using insoles.
How do I break in the UGG Tasman GTX?
These shoes are designed for immediate comfort. Wearing them for short periods initially can help them mold to your feet. Ensure you have the correct size, as this is key to comfort.
Troubleshooting
Water seeping through the material.
Ensure the suede has been treated with a suitable waterproofing spray for suede and Gore-Tex. Check for any damage to the membrane or stitching where water might enter. Clean the exterior to ensure no dirt is compromising the waterproof barrier.
Reduced warmth or insulation.
Check if the UGGplush lining is clean and dry. Consider wearing thicker socks for additional warmth in very cold conditions. Ensure the shoes are completely dry before wearing.
Difficulty slipping the shoes on.
Utilize the heel tab to assist in pulling the shoe on. If the fit is too snug, ensure you have selected the correct size. The shoe may loosen slightly with wear.
Suede material looks discolored or stained.
Use a dedicated suede cleaner or eraser for spot treatment. Follow with a suede brush to restore the nap. For persistent stains, consult a professional shoe cleaner specializing in suede.
