The great debate: Uggs or Fuggs?


It’s that time of year again, fall is in the air, and the temperature is beginning to drop. Winter sweaters and holiday socks soon will be crawling out from their warm-weather hiding places. Along with these seasonal pick comes the great, the dreaded, and the (questionably) ugly Uggs. And with the cold front that just took the Queen City by surprise, these furry little creatures have found their way onto female (and occasionally male) feet all across the Queens Campus. Not a day later I found my twitter flooded with tweets proclaiming their hatred to the long lasting fad.



While the general male population will agree on this opinion - yes, all Uggs should report to the campus fire-pit immediately (IMMEDIATELY!) But guys, when is comes to your own style, aren’t you known for choosing comfort over class? Well maybe we do too, so give us a break, sheeesh!

As for the females, it’s not so simple. I for one will admit to Uggs being rather ‘fuggly’ but their comfortable! and they keep my feet so warm. But there are those girls that simply cannot leave the house without their Uggs, while others have the never-had-a-pair-never-going-to-get-a-pair, Ugg mentality. That’s just fine, lucky for you the grungy combat boot is back in style (you hipster, you!)

So maybe Uggs are absolutely hideous, but I’ve seen worst! For all you disapprovers out there, I say try a pair of uggs for yourself and you might just think a little different.
