Directions for Care & Cleaning of Ugg Boots

There is a proper way to care and clean your favorite boots.

According to the Ugg website, Ugg boots are created from Grade A sheepskin, which is made of a dense, breathable and soft material. Because Ugg boots are made from the highest quality of sheepskin, you may notice how comfortable the boots are in warmer weather, in addition to protecting your feet from the cold. For this reason, many people wear Uggs year round, which may lead to odors, grime and dirt due to the constant wearing.

Things You'll Need

• Ugg sheepskin cleaner
• Ugg sheepskin protectant spray
• Soft sponge
• Suede brush
• Paper towels

Instructions

Basic Care of your Ugg Boots.

1. Spray the “Ugg Sheepskin Protectant Spray” on your boots. The spray is used to protect the fabric of your boots from the elements.

2. Clean your boots often. Cleaning your boots every 30 to 45 days can prevent stains and dirt buildup.

3. Wear socks with your boots to prevent odors. Ugg boots are very comfortable and you may be tempted to wear them with bare feet. But over time this can cause odors.

Cleaning Your Ugg Boots.

1. Use your sponge and lightly moisten the boots with cold water. If you immerse the boots in water, they will lose their natural shape.

2. Apply the “Ugg Sheepskin Cleaner” to the surface of the boots. Apply a small amount of the “Ugg Sheepskin Cleaner” on a sponge. Gently rub the surface of the boot until the solution foams and rinse lightly.

3. Stuff your boots with paper towels and let them dry in a cool place. The paper towels will hold the shape of the boot and absorb the moisture. The boots may need 24 hours to dry.

4. Take your suede brush and lightly brush your boots. Scrub your boots with the brush to restore the color and fabric after they have dried. Spray your “Ugg Sheepskin Protectant Spray” to protect your boots from the elements.
