Ugg boots are now also available as cowboy boots, yeehaw!

Ugg ventures into the Wild West in terms of fashion. In collaboration with the streetwear label Gallery Debt, Ugg boots with a cowboy look have been created.

Uggs aren't exactly the prettiest - even fans of the fluffy, chunky shoes probably don't deny that. Nevertheless, the sheepskin shoes have achieved cult status with their uggly shoe charm. Now they are showing a new side.

The streetwear label Gallery Dept, which can look back on collaborations with Vans, Asics and Lanvin, has once again teamed up with Ugg to create four models. The two Californian brands teamed up back in February. The result: Ugg boots and slippers decorated with colourful stones and splashes of colour. But instead of "bling bling", this time it's "yeehaw".

Western hype goes into overtime

The eye-catcher of the collaboration is a cognac-coloured hybrid of ugg and cowboy boots. It retains the characteristic rounded silhouette and inner lining, but is unmistakably reminiscent of a classic western boot thanks to its high, rounded shaft with side tabs and ornamental embroidery. The model is made from waterproof leather which, according to Ugg, is sourced from regenerative farms.

Upcycling as a creative driver

The line-up will be available from 18 October on the Ugg and Gallery Dept websites as well as in selected stores worldwide - of which Galaxus is probably not one. Perhaps that's for the best. After all, these things are pretty expensive and cost the equivalent of around 300 to 430 francs.

Here you can find normal, affordable Uggs.
