How To Clean Your Ugg Boots Correctly

By: Allison Thompson

So you have now managed to get yourself a pair of Ugg Boots! Unfortunately after wearing them for a while you will find that they start to lose that just new look and will need cleaning. In this article we take you through the steps you need to do in order to get them back looking the same as the day you got them.

As you will soon discover because these particular boots are extremely comfortable to wear you may find that you will wear them constantly. This then leads to them becoming covered in dirt and dust as well as retaining the odors that have come from your feet. An easy way to ensure that you Ugg boots retain that just brought look is by using a special product for cleaning them.

However if the cost of buying such cleaning products is somewhat prohibitive then you could carry out the following instead. Below are a number of steps to help you to clean your Ugg boots and get them back to their original condition when you took them out of the box for the first time.

Step 1 - You need to very lightly dampen the outside of the boot with some cold water. It is important that at no stage do you fully immerse them in water. Immersing them in water not only affects the lining of the boot inside but will also cause the boot to become misshaped.

Step 2 - At this stage you need to mix 1 part cleaning solution (suitable for cleaning leather) with 1 part water and again taking a sponge you dip it into this solution and then wipe this over the outside of the boot.

Step 3 - As you apply the diluted cleaning solution you should rub the sponge gently over the boots and then rinse this off with another sponge that has been put in clean cold water.

Step 4 - Once you have cleaned your boots you now need to stuff them full with either paper towels or newspaper. This will not only help the boot to retain its shape but will also help to remove any excess water. Whilst leaving your boots to dry which should be done naturally you should never put them in a place where they are directly in sunlight or close to a heat source (radiator or fire).

Step 5 - Finally, once your boots have dried out completely you can remove the paper and with either a suede brush or a lint free cloth you can should restore the nap. Quick even strokes across the boot will bring the nap up correctly. Also if you find that your boots smell a little bit then just take a mixture of baking powder and cornflour (2 teaspoons of each). Mix together and then sprinkle inside the boot where you leave it over night before turning the boot upside down and shaking out any excess.
