Terry Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 I saw a guy wearing Uggs the other day. I think they look terrible on women, but he looked okay in them. They were sand coloured and he had his jeans tucked into them. As an aside, the worst looking footwear on women, the Ugg, has now been replaced by...I don't know the name...but they are those brightly coloured, plastic, chunky clog with the back strap things that are becoming popular. In my opinion, anyway.
Fog Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 I saw a very trendy young Japanese guy wearing Uggs in Knightsbridge last summer. They looked good on him. I've an aquaintaince who wears a heavy duty looking male version, but I don't think he wears them for fashion.

NewfieGuyInHeels Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 LOL Funny you should say that. I thought the same thing about Crocs, till I tried on a pair, I was sold, I own a black pair and I'm debating on getting red and yellow pairs as well. If you check out their site you'll see they have alot of different styles. They maybe ugly, but you can't deny the comfort. Persoally I think they do look good with a nice pair of jeans. I plan on getting a pair of the boots they have as well, "Georgie" is the name on them, and the most popular style is "Beach." www.crocs.ca http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j78/darthraze/
Fog Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 The ugly plastic clogs are Crocs. Truly an abomination. Absolutely - we were shopping on Thursday evening - and I couldn't belive it they were priced at £30. They look expensive at a fiver. For the record, I quite like uggs. what have I said?
tal Posted September 9, 2006 Posted September 9, 2006 For the record, I quite like uggs. Ban this guy from the forums !!!! edit: faulty html My username changes every now and then on here. God knows why.
Danielinheels Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 I went to a shoe store out here in Illinois - the only Crocs available in my size were pink. No. Uggs, only went up to a size 11. Oh goodness I'm discussing crocs and uggs. Be yourself; everyone else is already taken. - Oscar Wilde
Shafted Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 Don't blame Shafted!!!! It was me. Did I miss something? Shafted, the boots that is!

Fog Posted September 10, 2006 Posted September 10, 2006 ChantalTV mistakenly attributed my comment that I quite like Uggs to you, and suggested that you should be banned from the forums. I stepped in and said "Don't blame Shafted ...." The mistake has been corrected. I didn't want you to be tarred with that extremely bad brush! I'll have to get some pics of me wearing them up on the board.

But on women....
NewfieGuyInHeels Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Well they're more popular with the women, at least here in newfoundland, but you do find a few guys wearing them, other than yours truely http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j78/darthraze/
dsltruck Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 I bought my UGGS from AU. And when it is cold and wet here....they are best for warm tootsies. Also love my crocs. Both are very comfy. Stan
shyguy Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 I bought my wife some crocs, in light blue, and when I saw them I hated them. Then I wore them, that's when you realise why other people wear them, they are so comfortable. I am considering getting some now. Anyone tried the Crocs Mary Janes? He was so narrow minded he could see through a keyhole with both eyes. Brown's Law: If the shoe fits, it's ugly
NewfieGuyInHeels Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 They also have ballet flats Crocs, the name on them is Prima, petty nice, tho I haven't seen them on a foot yet. http://s77.photobucket.com/albums/j78/darthraze/
dr1819 Posted September 12, 2006 Posted September 12, 2006 Oh goodness I'm discussing crocs and uggs. Well, crocs do lay eggs...

heelsrule Posted September 18, 2006 Posted September 18, 2006 Guys, For those who don't know. Ugg boots are an Aussie invention decades ago. Generally we only ever wore them inside (excluding some feral down and outs). Then some american company came in, saw our shoes and thought we can flog these back home, tried to even buy the rights to the name although very Aussie company's and people actually acknowedge this theft of culture and turned what was fancy slippers into street wear! Go figure! Shane
HeelD Posted September 18, 2006 Posted September 18, 2006 My girlfriend's brother has a pair of these boots he potters around his house in. I think a guy can wear these with no issues. Heel-D - Freestyling since 2005
Dawn HH Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Dr1819 has said that "Crocs lay eggs". I now have proof of this. Previously, I had said in a post somewhere that I had seen boys, girls, and Moms wearing Crocs at the Science Center where I work, and I suspected that it wouldn't be long before the Fathers would join the whole family and wear Crocs also. What I have suspected has come true as they are available in larger sizes. Now, ain't that a Croc? Pardon me while I wash my mouth out with soap as I can't believe that I am discussing flip-flops, Uggs, and Crocs. TOUEY!!! Cheers--- Dawn HH High Heeled Boots Forever!
bootluvr Posted September 24, 2006 Posted September 24, 2006 Hi All. I've seen occasional comments from Gents on ZAPPO'S web site who've purchased some of the Ladies Tall Shaft styles. Perfect for Gents to romp around in Lousy weather, but better left for the Ladies to STYLIZE them rest of year in Fair weather. Boots Rock!!!!
