Koolaburra by Uggs

I am wanting to get some of these cute boots for my neices, the are 7 and 9. One is an accident waiting to happen, the other not so much. I have never owned any shoes like this. How easy are these to clean?

They are genuine suede and that needs to be treated with a protectant spray which will help them from getting wet or soiled. This should be done every year if not sooner depending on how much they would get worn. I would say you cannot actually clean them but rather give them a brush cleaning on the exterior of the boot.

Tonight HSN will be having a Today's Special featuring the Bear Paw boots. They come with a special suede that never gets wet and it does not need to be re-treated, the treatment is permanent. These are the boots. Cute! You can order them now.

If they're real suede you should spray them with a suede waterproof spray before wearing, to deter dirt and stains.

I do that with all of my original UGGS.

If they do need cleaning, suede cleaner is the only thing you should use on real suede.

I saw Kohls carries these as well. I do not know how prices compare with QVC.

Th feet of a 7 and a 9 year old grow quickly. I would not spend too much $$$ on genuine suede. I'd check places like Marshall's or TJ Maxx.

I love Uggs and wonder how the Koolaburra compare, if anyone knows. Thanks in advance!

@UGGs are made of 100% (twin-face) sheepskin uppers. Kookabura boots are made with calf suede leather uppers, faux fur and some sheepskin (fur) usually found in the insoles. @World Traveler

I have also wondered about the differences. Thank you. Are the Kookabura boots just as comfy?

I've also wondered about the difference between Uggs and Koolabura. I have several pair of Uggs and wear them for warmth, but not comfort. There is no arch support or much support at all. Are Kolaburra made the same?

@this is my nic I agree. I purchased Vionic supports for my Uggs. They have specials on them on QVC about once or twice a year; otherwise, they are quite expensive.
