Last week, in her Cute Outfit Of The Day portrait, my ever-lovely colleague Noria Morales had on some gorgeous, delicate strappy sandals by—of all companies—Ugg. Intrigued, I did a little googling to get a closer look. I found them on zappos.com, and they are indeed as chic as they looked in her picture, with tiny wedge heels and skinny laces that wrap around the ankle. Most fascinating though is that the narrow leather band that runs across the toe of the shoe is lined with the brand's signature sheepskin. Could fur possibly make any sense on a sandal?? I promptly emailed Noria, and she had this to say: "I know, I thought the furry part was ridiculous at first too. But it actually just feels like this little hint of softness, and since the rest of the style is so bare, it doesn't get at all hot or uncomfortable. Plus, you'll never have to worry about blisters or chafing or any of that other yucky foot stuff." I'm sold.

What do you think? I actually think it's kinda cute. I can imagine the fur making it a bit more comfortable, but I wish it didn't show.

I don't think they're ugly, they're just not really my style. I also imagine that the fur would make it a little more comfy. They don't look anything like what I expected to see when I saw the thread title .

This is what I was expecting! And the sandals are nice but not my style.

[pinksugar]

I don't mind the shoes, but I wouldn't pay $114 for them! that's daylight robbery!

[xtiffanyx]

That pic is pretty much exactly what I was expecting .

Ashley, that's kind of what I was expecting. Fur and summer shouldn't go together.

[StereoXGirl]

They're kind of pretty, but I still don't like the fur on them. lol!

I can imagine them being more comfortable than normal sandals because they wouldn't rub as much. But if your feet are hot then that would be un-comfortable too.
It would be better if it was more hidden...

They are not my style. I would imagine the fur being on such a narrow strap might get compressed fairly quickly?

[Karren_Hutton]

Ugg's a good name for them!! Lol. And way over priced too!

[vesna]

Not my style but frankly I don't like Ugg boots either. Always thought they were horrible. And I would think that the skin under that fur would get quite sweaty even if it is just a small strap. Doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Plus the price is a little ridiculous for what is basically a sole with a lace attatched to it.

Those sandals are ugly...not worth paying $114 dlls for them.
What are they thinking?

[Bec688]

They're not doing anything for me. I'll pass on these.
