    Hey,
    Not sure for definite but I think the boots can be got in Fitzpatricks in Dublin. They have a few shops around the city. If worst comes to worst, there's always Ebay and if you don't wanna risk authenticity try the Bloomingdales, New York website! They ship to Ireland!

    So does Office in Dundrum. Real rip off... These do not cost as much if converted into AUS/NZ dollars.

    yes they may be cheaper in australia, but have you factored in these charges into the item?

    custom charges
    higher tax rates in ireland
    rent in high profile places like dundrum
    insurance for shop.

    etc. etc.

    it's the same with the likes of guiness, it's cheaper to buy here than it is in say the likes of america/australia because it's produced here and therefore there's less overheads from production to your mouth.

    I know the question was simply where to get them but I will happily point out that UGG's are the stupidest and possible the uggliest shoes…. Ever.

    Also I can't wait to see all those kids future doctors bills as they suffer all sorts of problems with over pronanted feet. :rolleyes:

    it's not even their sillyness though, it's the way girls walk in them after a couple of months. when they walk like penguins in them - ie on the sides of the boot - it can't be good for the feet.

    but if they want bad posture in later life then they can be my guest :D.

    I'd usually join in on the ugg is for ugly opinion but I saw Carmeron Diaz wearing a gorgeous pair in Heat magazine last week. The collar kind of split at the front and folded down on either side. They looked super comfy and cute.

    That only happens if you buy the cheap knockoffs. The real ones dont do that.

    Oh and you can get them in Schuh.

    I don't think the OP asked for- or cares about- your opinion.

    I don't think they asked for or care about your comment on Dragan's off topic post either, but hell, there's nothing like a condescending off topic remark on an internet forum for self gratification.

    Well no offence Piste, but at least i had a point in mentioning the future dangers of wearing boots that offer absolutely **** all support for the body and posture. ;)

    I assume you were just posting for the sake of posting, or in defense of your UGGS. :)

    Also, last time i checked this was the fashion forum, so offering opinion of someones fashion choice falls within the realm of whats allowed?

    Finally, as per charter if you had an issue with my post then report it, don't bring it up within the thread.

    I have never seen a girl actually wear these properly, they are always sideways on their feet and look terrible.

    That's because the majority of people wear the fake "UGGs" so they go wonky after a few wears. The real UGG Australia boots don't go like that at all.

    The OP asked where to avail of Ugg boots, not people's opinion on them.
    Yet, you still felt you had to give yours.

    See the problem there?
