What's Happening to the Australian UGG? When first receiving the boots from any store, you must first check to see that the boots are in brand new condition. One can never be too picky when purchasing UGG boots. Once you see that the boots are in brand new condition, you can start the caring process for your boots. The controversy over the patented use of the word UGG (and the lawsuits that Australian manufacturers have been facing resulting from their continued use of this casual term, used to refer to a style of sheepskin boot that has been popular among men women and children in Australia for the past four decades or longer) has raged since the Australian born surfer patented the term "UGG" to refer to his line of sheepskin boots being marketed in the United States and sold the trademark to Decker Outdoor Corporation. Since then, according to Australian companies, Decker and their subsidiary, UGG Holdings Inc., have tried vehemently to squash any attempt to market a boot bearing the name UGG-even though the term UGG was used to describe these pieces of practical and fashionable footwear long before Smith ever crossed the Atlantic. Australians believe they've been more than patient with Brian Smith's attempts to carry the Australian tradition to the western hemisphere, offering little protest when he first applied for a patent for the term UGG with regard to his footwear even though federal trade law firmly states that generic terms cannot be patented to prevent the hundreds of millions of lawsuits that would result from situations like this one where a brand name attempts to hog the market on a product used and sold by manufacturers across an entire continent. They even kept silent when moved production of brand name UGG boots to Internet reference： http://www.articlesbase.com/fashion-articles/is-buying-discounted-uggs-a-good-idea-1553220.html Editor: small piglet
