FAQs
What materials are the UGG Astromel Platforms made from?
The upper is crafted from a unique combination of durable suede, lightweight nylon, and eco-conscious recycled textile materials, offering both distinctive texture and robust construction.
Are these platforms comfortable for all-day wear?
Designed with UGG's renowned comfort heritage, the Astromel Platforms are engineered for comfortable everyday wear. However, as with any elevated footwear, the platform sole may require a short adjustment period for some users to fully acclimate.
How do I choose between the two included lace styles?
The *satin laces* are provided for a more fashion-forward, elegant aesthetic, ideal for when you want to elevate your casual outfits. The *flat ticked laces* offer a more secure and traditional sneaker fit, suitable for longer wear or when you prioritize stability and a classic look.
Can I wear these platforms in wet weather?
While the nylon and recycled textile components offer some degree of protection, the suede areas are not fully waterproof. We recommend avoiding heavy rain or prolonged exposure to wet conditions. Applying a suitable water and stain repellent spray, especially to the suede, can help protect the materials.
What size should I order?
The UGG Astromel Platforms generally run true to size. For the best fit, we recommend ordering your usual UK shoe size. This particular guide is for a UK size 8.
How do I clean the platform sole of the shoe?
The platform sole is durable and easy to clean. Simply wipe it down with a damp cloth to remove any dirt, dust, or minor scuffs. For more stubborn marks, a mild soap solution can be used.
Troubleshooting
Laces feel too loose or too tight
Utilize the multiple lacing opportunities to adjust the tension. Ensure laces are evenly threaded and try different lacing patterns for a more customized and secure fit. Remember to choose between the satin (fashion-focused) and flat ticked (secure fit) laces based on your preference and the desired snugness.
Suede areas appear dirty or scuffed
Gently brush the suede with a specialized suede brush to remove surface dirt. For scuffs, use a suede eraser. For tougher stains, a suede cleaning kit should be used according to its instructions. Always test any cleaning product on an inconspicuous area first to ensure it doesn't cause discoloration.
Platforms feel unstable or unusual when walking
The platform design may require a short adjustment period if you're not accustomed to elevated soles. Start by wearing them for shorter durations on flat, even surfaces to get comfortable with the added height. Ensure laces are securely tied for optimal foot stability and support.
Difficulty matching the brown color with outfits
The brown color is quite versatile. Pair your Astromel Platforms with neutral tones such as creams, whites, blacks, and greys for a balanced look. Denim (both blue and black) also complements brown exceptionally well. Experiment with different textures and colors in your wardrobe to discover combinations that you love and express your personal style.

Initial Setup: No complex setup is required for your UGG Astromel Platforms. Simply choose your preferred lace style—either the elegant satin laces for a fashion-forward look or the flat ticked laces for a more secure fit—and thread them through the multiple lacing opportunities to customize your fit and aesthetic. Compatibility: These platforms are designed for adults and complement a wide range of casual and contemporary fashion styles. They are best suited for pairing with fashion-forward streetwear, athleisure, and relaxed ensembles. Their unique design makes them a statement piece for various outfits. Care Instructions: Proper care will help maintain the appearance and longevity of your Astromel Platforms. * Suede Areas: Use a soft brush (like a suede brush) to gently remove loose dirt and dust. For minor scuffs, a suede eraser can be effective. For deeper cleaning, apply a specialized suede cleaner according to the product's instructions, always testing on an inconspicuous area first. Avoid excessive water, as it can damage suede. * Nylon and Recycled Textile Areas: These sections can be gently wiped clean with a damp cloth and a small amount of mild, diluted soap. After cleaning, wipe with a clean damp cloth to remove soap residue and allow them to air dry away from direct heat. * General Care Tips: * Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or extreme heat, which can fade colors and dry out materials. * When not in use, stuff the platforms with paper to help maintain their shape. * Store them in a cool, dry place. * Consider applying a water and stain repellent spray, specifically formulated for mixed materials or suede, before the first wear and for periodic reapplication to protect against moisture and stains. * Platform Sole: The rubber platform sole can be easily cleaned by wiping it with a damp cloth and mild soap to remove dirt, dust, and scuffs. For stubborn marks, a soft-bristled brush can be used.
