They're Uggs! Really, really freaking expensive Uggs.
Besides Uggs are over anyways. & yeah that sawtooth sole doesn't save them either.

No kidding. If I hadn't seen the name or the price, I would have guessed they were just yet another Ugg knockoff. Is there really a market for this?

They really do like like a knock off. I thought Uggs were expensive for glorified slippers but this is a bit ridiculous.

Uggs may be over, I never liked them, but they still sell like crazy where I work!! If you buy them for function, ( warmth, use as slippers), that's one thing, but as a fashion thing? No.

Yes, Uggs are appropriately named, and these Rick Owens are ridiculous. It just shows that designer doesn't mean it's good.

Welllllll....I could never justify the price, but to my eye, this sole looks far better than that on an UGG boot, and the leather is a lot nicer than the UGG's suede. Mind you, I'm comparing them to the ubiquitous UGG slipper boot that every teenager around here wears, and I know UGG makes better ones than that. I wouldn't pay anywhere near that amount but I actually don't mind these. LOL!

They are kinda cute. Not that I would wear them. Unless they were waterproof.

My word, there are so many cool boot styles as alternatives. Is he being...ironic?

It's like Uggs and moon boots had a baby. NOPE.

Ha. They do look kinda more water resistant than uggs.... you know, just in case you want to wear your Rick Owens boots to splash around in dirty puddles.

Woah, hold on there folks. Say what you like about Rick Owens but I won't hear a bad word about ugg boots. They are Australia's gift to the rest of the world.

Brooklyn! I adore my Uggs from the original style to the fancy leather ones and will defend them to the end! All I meant is that Rick Owens doesn't need to sell them for 15 times the price. Others may differ.
