Ugg is an Australian footwear and clothing brand known primarily for its comfortable, furry boots that have gained popularity around the world. The brand was founded in 1978 by Brian Smith in California, and its name comes from the Australian word "ugly", which refers to the distinctive appearance of these boots. The characteristic feature of Ugg boots is their soft, furry lining made of sheepskin or wool, which provides unparalleled comfort and warmth. These boots quickly gained popularity among people looking for footwear for colder days, both for their functionality and fashionable appearance. In addition to boots, Ugg also offers a wide range of clothing and accessories, including jackets, sweaters, gloves and handbags, which are designed with comfort and style in mind. The brand is especially popular in the autumn and winter season, when its products are often worn by people who value comfort and style.
