Fab Flash: Are Snowjoggers the New Uggs?

Hailing from Denmark, Snowjoggers are quickly giving the Ugg a run for its money — I had this candidate on my radar last February!

The moonboot-cum-athletic shoe has been spotted toasting the toes of Lindsay Lohan, Victoria Beckham, Liv Tyler, and Sienna Miller — quite the warm Hollywood welcome. They come in a rainbow of colors, from pink to white to multi-colored, and retail for $80-$100. Plus, their profits are given back to the Bangladeshi women who make them. But the real question is: Would you be caught wearing them?

    Omg. I had a pair of these in Pink when I was 6. Please don't make me re-live them!

    I actually think they're better than Uggs --- they keep you dry AND they give back to the women making them. These would be perfect for my trips to the snowy, slushy places... but I'd get so little use out of them, I don't think I'd pay $80 (or the inflated costs since these are going to be a trend apparently.)

    I can't believe that someone would think that these are more attractive than Uggs! They are so hideously Napolean Dynomite-esque. Barf!

    Ditto to LilPeaPod. I think I had goofy boots like these when I was a kid.

    they're just as horrificly ugly as uggs, but i'd rather wear these cause they give profits back to those women, and they actually insulate and keep your feet dry

    Hmm....well, I wouldn't have much use for them in California or Florida, the only two states I'm ever in.

    What is with the hideous boot trend?? First Uggs now this?? I don't get it. The only time I would ever be caught dead in these would be if I were going to some freezing mountain location.

    I would not wear them just (to try) to be cute, but I would happily wear them when it is snowing and freezing rain outside, like it was here in Chicago this past weekend! Most of the practical snow boots are not that cute, but they keep your feet warm and dry.

    Why are they so pricey? They look like boots you could get at Savers or something.

    nononono! some fashion design girl in my school came in last year in legitmate little boys snow boots that truly resembled them (only they were silver blue and red) with these striped leggings. it was awful. it's the shoe of the fashion design girls gone wrong.

    I would feel like i was back in elementary school truth be told LOL. As great it is that they are giving back products i'm not sure even that would convince me even a little to buy them for everyday use. But if i was going ona ski trip or somewhere i was around snow all the time...then sure.

    They might be good for snow, but that doesn't make them look any prettier,but the giving back is a plus.

    Snow... joggers??

    They may not look the cutest... but we just got about 10" of snow in the past 48 hours. I literally was jogging through it on the way to the bus today because walking in snow that deep is very slow, and jogging sometimes makes for better balance.

    In barely-fitting leather boots with no ankle support? Not fun.

    Anyway, that's what a shoe bag is for.

    Um, wow, something worse the Uggs in my opinion.

    Seriously, is it that difficult to find cute, warm boots? You don't necessarily have to sacrifice practicality for fashion, but c'mon, girls, we can do better than this.

    I have a pair like these in bright neon green (in case they should ever have to find me in a snow drift) and I just love them. They are not "UGG-LY"! Nothing is more "BOOT-IFUL" in winter than warm,dry feet.
