The big question we all ask when we are looking to buy genuine Ugg australia's, but also try and save a bit of money.

We usually turn to ebay, but most of the Ugg's for sale on ebay are fake. So how do we tell the difference between the real ones and fake ones?

The most obvious is the price, if you think its to cheap, or too good to be true, its probably fake.

But here are the things to look out for to help you decide if fake or real.

The Sole
1) The bottom of the Ugg's are recessed with the UGG logo in a Classic tall or Classic short Authentic Ugg. A fake is flat.

2) The sole in a real ugg is flexible. The fakes are more rigid and stiff.

Labels

The outside UGG labels are subtly different. Note how 'australia' is in a bolder font on the fake. On the real UGG, the ®, is right in the middle of the open jaws of the 'G', in many of the fakes the ® it is right at the top of the jaw. In many fake UGGS, the label is also too high up on the heel. If you are not sure look at the real ones in a High Street shop.

Believe it or not, genuine Classic Deckers UGGS ...
... are made in China. The fake Decker Classic UGGS always say made in New Zealand or sometimes Australia.

If the Ugg's are pictured with a blue or brown label pinned to them, hanging by a string, then they are fake. Real genuine Ugg australia's to not come with and labels pinned to them.

Fur

A genuine Deckers UGG has real sheepskin fur on the interior. Its fluffy looking and also thicker and a rich cream colour. The fake uses synthetic 'fur', is slightly grey, thinner and also small pieces of the 'fur' come away when rubbed.

Size

Real ugg's are made large, so if someone is advertising them saying, they are a bit smaller than the size, so order a size larger, then this is a good sign they are fakes. But at the same time, many people selling the Ugg's will just say they are slightly larger in order to get a sale, so be sure to check for urself.
