Clean Ugg Boots

Admit it, you want to be just like the celebrities that you see, wearing whatever you see them wear. Today that means you’re probably going to be wearing Ugg Boots. Now, those celebrities may be able to toss theirs if they get some dirt on them, but you will not be able to afford to do that, most likely, so you may want to learn the right way to clean them so you can keep them looking good.

The first thing you should understand about Ugg Boots is that they really should not be worn in extremely wet weather or in the mud. These boots are definitely designed to keep your feet warm, but they do not come waterproof and you’ll probably be pretty unhappy if you wear them in the sloppy snow.

If you decide that your Ugg Boots need to be cleaned, then you should begin by taking the following steps and you’ll find that they will stay in top condition much longer.

1. Ugg Boots should always be washed by hand. Please do not ever put them in your washing machine! Use cold water to avoid damaging the sheepskin or suede. You wouldn’t wash your leather jacket in the machine, right? Well, then don’t put your Ugg Boots in there, either. These are made from very delicate materials and should be cleaned as such.

2. Not only do you need to avoid using a washing machine or hot water, you also need to avoid drying your Ugg Boots with a dryer or a direct heat source after you wash them (don’t put them near your radiator). Instead, fill the boots with paper (newspaper works very well), which will soak up a lot of the moisture from inside the boot, speeding up the drying process. This will also help keep the boot properly shaped. Let the boots dry naturally, it may take a couple of days to do it right.

If your Ugg Boots are especially dirty or soiled, the manufacturer can usually recommend their own cleaning products. Contact your Ugg Boots retailer if you need these special products. Typically a little bit of cool water scrubbed on the dirt spots will do the trick and make them cleaner. Using any tough cleaning products may actually damage your Ugg Boots, so choose carefully and be sure that the products you select are safe for suede and sheepskin materials!
