Does UGG Australia Ship Internationally?
Can I buy UGG Australia® boots outside Australia?
Not directly under the UGG Australia® name — but yes, you can buy the exact same boots internationally, under our export brand, Sheepskins Downunder®. UGG Australia® only sells within Australia; since 1981, the same Melbourne-tanned, family-made sheepskin boots have been exported to customers in the US, Japan, UK, EU and Russia under the Sheepskins Downunder® name.
Why not just ship under the UGG Australia® name?
Outside Australia and New Zealand, "UGG" is a registered trademark held in many countries by US company Deckers Outdoor Corporation, who has a long history of actively enforcing it internationally — see our full trademark dispute timeline for the details. In Australia, "UGG" is legally generic — which is why UGG Australia® can trade under that name here — but that protection doesn't extend overseas. To respect that trademark territory, we export the same product under a different name: Sheepskins Downunder®. Read more about whether UGG and UGG Australia® are the same.
Is Sheepskins Downunder® the same company as UGG Australia®?
Yes. Sheepskins Downunder® is UGG Australia®'s international export brand — same family (Luda and Roman, trading since 1981), same tannery (Roman Tannery, Melbourne), same standards, and the same company that holds the Australian "UGG Australia" trademark (Australian Trademark No. 1432481). Just a different name for markets where "UGG" belongs to someone else.
What makes Sheepskins Downunder® genuine Australian sheepskin?
The same twin-face sheepskin, tanned at Australia's last dedicated sheepskin tannery in Melbourne, under CSIRO Medical Sheepskin Licence No. 22 and Australian Standard AS4480.1 — and the same Australian Made Campaign Licence No. 1829 that UGG Australia® has held since 1981.
Where can I buy UGG Australia® in Australia?
UGG Australia® is sold in Australia through one physical location, our UGG Australia Factory Outlet in Laverton and through our trusted Australian resellers. We do not sell to stores or websites that use "ugg" in their store name or website name. If a store isn't listed on our store locator, then they do not sell our UGG Australia® brand.
