Homme Posted December 23, 2008 Share Posted December 23, 2008 My sister has a pair coming from somewhere in Australia. She got them ?40 (approx) from there and that includes postage / packaging etc. Probably won't get them until after the new year however. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'll not be real ones if your getting them for ?40 I'm afraid. Have friends in Oz and New Zealand and the cheapest you can get the real ones is around ?90. I'll stand corrected if I'm wrong but ?40 sounds a bit dodgy to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arse 'Friends' Dyslexic? Posted December 24, 2008 Share Posted December 24, 2008 Bloody hell - ?137 :xmaseye: I've seen a lot of students wearing them for a couple of years now - I thought it was because they were really cheap or something. Bloody awful looking boots which make many people look like they've dislocated their ankles. :xmaseye: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stewart MacD Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Wummin with these in Sydney nowadays usually have other accessories like a b/f with a mullet, tattoos and a flannelette shirt. Usually sighted in the more socially deprived suburbs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Whittaker's Tache Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 They were originally meant as slippers for wearing round the house in Oz I heard My chiropractor tells me there are loads of girls with back problems after wearing them long term as they have no support (hence why you see girls feet collapsing inwards when you walk behind them) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like you say they're all worn on the instep only. Not good for you. Also the biggest fashion crime of the year - Ugg boots with tracky bottoms or those baggy velour fellas that look like pyjamas.

Louise Posted December 25, 2008 Share Posted December 25, 2008 Haha, it's worse in Glasgow - when I have been through there shopping I've seen girls in these velour tracksuits in PINK or even GREEN.
