Despite what you may have read in your favorite fashion magazine, UGG� boots are as popular as ever, and around the holidays, boots from UGG� Australia can be notoriously difficult to find. This can lead to desperation if someone on your list has their heart set on a pair of UGG� Australia boots, and you come across a web site that claims to have them in stock -- maybe even at half-price.

What's the problem? Well, the problem is, you may be buying fake UGG� Australia boots.

Here are a few links to tips and tools that will help you locate authorized UGG� retailers, and avoid sites that may be selling fake UGG� boots.

Columbia Boots on Sale

Tue, 20 Oct 2009 03:18:59 +0000

With winter rapidly approaching, I've been talking a lot about winter boots and snow boots. It might seem like I just have a thing for warm bulky boots, but the reality is, the best time to buy snow boots is before you need them.

Towards that end, I located a pair of women's Columbia boots on sale for nearly half their regular price. The Bugaboot� Omni-Tech is currently on sale at 6pm.com for $53.48, which is 47% off the manufacturer's suggested price of $100.

These boots are sporty and cute, but they're extremely practical too, featuring Omni-Tech� technology, which allows perspiration to escape, while prevening water from penetrating.

Temperature-rated to -25 degrees F, these boots also feature outsoles that are designed for maximum traction in snow and on ice.

There are several color combinations available, but only two of them (winter white/cosmo and hawk/crushed berry) are currently on sale at this price.
