It’s being replaced with Ugg Classic II….

Attention all lovers of Uggs: the Ugg boots you know and love – the ones you’ve worn with your leggings, slipped on around the house, and worn every time your feet need the highest level of comfort – are dead.

Ugg is discontinuing the classic Ugg boots you’ve been wearing for years.

But don’t panic. You’ll still be able to buy the style of Ugg boots you’ve come to rely on. It’s just that they’ll now have a different name and some slightly fancier features.

Now for the good news.

The differences, while seemingly minimal, are actually glorious news for all diehard Ugg fans.

All Classic II boots have been treated with a special waterproof finish, meaning they won’t get all sodden and gross when you go out in the snow, and will be resistant to any stains from spilled Starbucks pumpkin lattes (or whatever else you’re getting on there).
