boots are popular

During the last few years, ugg boots have been virtually everywhere. The sheepskin boots are popular not only for their design, UGG Boots Ultra Short but also because they can keep your feet comfortable in almost any weather. That probably makes you wonder who first came up with the idea of making this type of footwear.
Not surprisingly, several countries claim   Ugg Mini Boots to be the origin of the popular ugg style. Most famously, New Zealand and Australia have a long dispute about which country first developed the boot style, but these days most people associate Australia with this style of boots. The reason is probably that the most popular  UGG Classic Sale manufacturer, UGG Australia, is named what it is. In fact, while this is truly the most famous brand, it is owned by an American company, Deckers.
The first recorded usage of this type of boot was during World War I, when they were used by aviators. At the time they were referred to as  Ugg Cardy Boots fug boots, which supposedly was a shortened form of flying ugg boots. However, they have also been recorded as being used in Australia during the 1920s. Production probably started  Ugg Tall Boots earlier, but there is proof that the boots were produced as early as in 1933 by Blue Mountains Ugg Boots. By the 1950s, Mortels Sheepskin Factory was also making the same type of footwear.
In other words, ugg boots trace their history back almost 100 years. Most likely they originated in Australia, but do not say that loudly  Ugg Short Boots if you are in a presence of someone from New Zealand. These days most of the boots are actually made in China, and little manufacturing if any is done down under.
