Makes some boots in Sydney

UGG Australian Collection says it sells classic Australian-made UGG boots that are made in a Sydney factory. It also says these local products are harder to find than imported versions. Making some items closer to home can cut transport emissions and make the supply chain easier to follow. The brand also says it delivers across Australia and New Zealand.

Offers repair and care help

The Commons Earth says UGG offers paid repair options through NuShoe, a repair service, and gives a one-year warranty. The brand also shares care instructions for cleaning and looking after its products. Repair and care support can help shoes last longer, which can reduce waste and delay replacement.

Uses lower-impact materials

Good On You and The Commons Earth both note that UGG uses some lower-impact materials, including recycled polyester, organic cotton, recycled cotton, sugarcane EVA (a foam made partly from plant-based material), and repurposed wool. The Commons Earth also says its animal hides are LWG-certified, meaning the tanneries meet Leather Working Group standards for environmental practices.

Reports emissions at parent level

The Commons Earth says UGG’s parent company, Deckers, publicly reports company-wide emissions and gives a breakdown by scope, which means direct emissions and other emissions in the value chain. It also says Deckers uses some renewable energy and has energy and water efficiency measures in its sites and offices.
