Have you always wanted a pair of Uggs but couldn't dish out the money? Do you have a pair of copycats but really drool at the Ugg logo? Just last night, March 17, 2010, the failings of ugg pas cher boots made the news on television.
Many health experts believe that Uggs (and their copycats) are "harming the feet of a generation of young women," according to an article in The New York Daily News.
One explanation is that your feet slide around inside the boot. Every step you take causes your arches to flatten and drop. Eventually this could add up to problems with your hips, feet, and/or ankles.
Uggs have been popular for a very long time. First surfers loved them and then the stars loved them. Next, of course, came the common person.ugg france
Uggs are fine to wear but not all day and certainly not everyday. Dr. Robin Ross, podiatrist and incoming president of the New York State Podiatric Association states, "If someone plans on going on a long hike or standing on their feet all day, [Uggs] are not good, whether it's the brand or an imitation. People tend to get pain on the outside of the ankle, the arches start to hurt, and they tend to get foot fatigue."source
You may be ignoring the warning signs for the sake of fashion.
If you wear your Uggs often, then a pair of custom-made molds called orthotics will help because these orthotics keep your feet in place. Orthotics are expensive. The reality of people buying them seems unlikely to this Examiner.
The article suggest that you should air out your boots every day and if you wear them without socks, spray then with a Lysol-type product once a week. ugg paris
