Tall Chestnut Uggs

I bought the black pair in tall ugg store and loved how plush the sheepskin lining was. I ordered a size down from my normal 9.5 - got a size 8 and it fit in length. The first thing I noticed is that there is not a lot of toe height in the boots - I’m assuming everyone waits for them to stretch. I wore them around the house, to the store, pretty much everywhere and for 8 hours at a time. They were comfortable in the sense that they were cozy and kept my feet warm but my feet ached from wearing them. Specifically, I’d wake up the next day with sore heels, feet bottoms, and even sore knees! Just so you know I normally wear Danskos to work because I stand all day and have a relatively low arch, and I’m 5′6″ and 135lbs - not overweight. I wanted to keep these so much that I put a pair of slim arch support/heel comfort inserts in them and they were very pleasant to wear - with the exception of the low toe box area which kept compressing my toes. I ended up returning them as I couldn’t justify the sore feet/legs. I looked online to see if I was the only that had this experience and found this article that explains some of my aches: [...]ugg boots are the best boots, IF you take the time to waterproof them and brush them off once in a while, they will keep you warm and last you a lifetime. Like anything that you expect to last, they are quality made and built very well from the finest sheepskin. Genuine UGG boots have UGG on the sole with a little R in a circle, they are Made in China, for the past few years. They do have black wool inside, if they are black suede, Other colors have the lambs wool, unchanged, on the inside. It is worth the extra money to buy only discount ugg boots.
