UGG Classic Ultra Mini Platform - Brown - Size: 6

No, these boots are not waterproof. The suede material offers some natural water resistance, but they are not designed for heavy rain or snow. It is highly recommended to treat them with a water and stain repellent spray for protection.

For general freshness, allow the boots to air out. For light cleaning, you can gently dab the lining with a cloth dampened with a mild wool-safe detergent solution, then wipe with a clean damp cloth. Always let them air dry completely. For deeper cleaning, an UGG Care Kit usually includes a cleaner for the interior.

The main difference is the sole. The Classic Ultra Mini features a traditional flat sole, while the Ultra Mini Platform has an elevated 2-inch platform sole, giving it a distinct, fashion-forward look and added height.

UGG boots generally run true to size. However, the sheepskin lining will mold to your feet over time. If you are between sizes, or plan to wear thick socks, you might consider sizing up, but most customers find their regular size fits well after a short break-in period.

While the Treadlite by UGG outsole offers traction, the suede upper is not suitable for heavy snow or slush without significant prior waterproofing treatment. Exposure to salt and moisture from snow can damage the suede and cause staining. For snowy conditions, UGG offers other styles designed specifically for winter weather.

Treadlite by UGG is a proprietary outsole compound designed by UGG. It offers increased cushioning, durability, and traction compared to traditional UGG outsoles, while remaining lightweight and flexible for enhanced comfort.

Allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat. Once dry, gently brush the suede with a soft suede brush to lift the nap and even out the appearance. For stubborn stains, use a specialized suede cleaner or an UGG Care Kit, following its instructions carefully.

Regularly brush the suede with a soft suede brush, always brushing in the same direction, to restore its natural nap and smooth appearance.

Ensure your boots are the correct size; an overly loose fit can reduce warmth. The UGGplush lining provides significant insulation, but in extremely cold conditions, wearing appropriate wool socks can add extra warmth. Verify the lining is not matted down; if so, gently fluff it with your hand.

While the Treadlite by UGG outsole is designed for enhanced traction, no sole is entirely slip-proof, especially on ice or very wet surfaces. Exercise caution when walking on slippery conditions. For severe slipperiness, consider specialized grip enhancers for shoe soles, although this may alter the aesthetic.

Allow the boots to air out thoroughly between wears. You can use shoe deodorizers or place baking soda in a sock inside the boots overnight to absorb odors. Avoid wearing them without socks, as this can contribute to odor build-up.
