By the early s, the iconic Australian innovation known as UGG boots started gaining popularity on the east coast of Australia. For Faye and Arthur, their initial vision for the company was to support their family by capitalizing on the ever growing, Australian tourism industry; however, little did they know that the product of their Australian dream would become a worldwide necessity.
Arthur and his wife Faye relocated the company to the Gold Coast in the late s where they continued to work tirelessly to maintain quality workmanship, luxurious comfort and timeless style in each and every pair of UGG boots.
While Arthur and Faye continue to proudly watch on, it is their grandson Todd and his wife Hannah local Gold Coasters with a young family of their own that now own and operate UGG Since With a lifetime of experience, Todd grew up in the business when it was operated by his parents who acquired it from Arthur and Faye in the s , before going on to work in it during school holidays and throughout university, and then serving as the Production Manager for many years before purchasing the business several years ago.
Knowing the product like no other, Todd still oversees production on a daily basis, ensuring the precision and quality instilled in him from his grandfather shines through in each and every product. Fantastic story now I know the history of this iconic business. Love your product , long may it remain Australian.
I have always loved the boots. I did not know there was a difference in the boots purchased in the USA. I would like to purchase an authentic pair of UGG boots.
Is that possible? Great story of a truly Aussie family business. I now understand some things as I grew up in Toowoomba and some education later in life in Brisbane but now living near Sydney. I always had this thing of Ugg boots were a Qld thing originally but now understand the story. I have been looking for boots to send overseas -Kurdistan of all places and yes it gets freezing over there Kurdish part of Iraq and wanted to make sure I will be sending a true Australian product and not a chinese less quality product.
Best wishes thru this horrible time of restrictions. Cheers Peggy. What an incredible story and even more, an incredible family. These guys truly make me proud to be an Australian! I just received my second pair of Ugg Since , this time boots and to say I am excited was an understatement. Our family business puts forward an honest ideal that still endures.
The truth is, no one knows exactly where the idea came from, or where the iconic boot got their name. What we do know is that the sheepskin boot was born here in Australia, and its legend is unequivocally Aussie.
