Women's EMU Bronte - Buying EMU Bronte Boots Online

Women's EMU Bronte - What's the best shopping?  Here are the best merchant resources I have found online for selection and price (more information below listings):

For those of you who weren't able to find what you wanted above, or simply would like some more comparisons, a good place to check out is eBay:
If there are any auctions happening, you will find the soonest-ending ones just below:




About the Women's EMU Bronte:

The Women's EMU Bronte is one of the most specifically searched-for boots in the EMU Australia lineup for women - likely due to the fact that these boots have possibly the best value in classic Australian boots - of any other boots out there.  These boots carry quite a lower price tag than other versions of the classic boots, constructed from high quality suede and merino wool inner lining.  Like other makes of Australian boots, these boots keep feet warm in the winter and cooler in the warmer months due to the unique properties of the merino wool used.

Not only are these boots comfy - they're right in line with the current fashion trends.  They're also a great alternative for women who are more on a budget these days.  Bottom line - the EMU Women's Bronte boot is a great value, with overall high consumer ratings and a lower price than you might even think you might find!

Sizing Information:  The Women's EMU Bronte boot is known to run 1/2 to a full size large.  When purchasing these boots you should order 1/2 size down if you wear a 1/2 size, one full size down if you wear a full size.  They should fit a bit snug when they are first put on, but with a few wearings they will break in nicely and provide the perfect fit.  Great to wear barefoot!

My take on the EMU Bronte - The consumer reviews overall are rave for this boot - they are known to feel and fit just as comfortably as other brands - but with a much lower price.  If you are temporarily or otherwise on a lower budget, these boots are a great way to be right in style in the fall and winter months without breaking the bank!  =)

About the Women's EMU Hip Boot:

I believe that anyone would be hard-pressed to find a more gorgeous winter-time boot than the Women's EMU Hip - this boot is unique and yet classic - traditional Australian boot style with wrap-around tie straps (or button straps, for the Hip Button version).  There is soooo much added to the looks of these boots by the simple addition of the straps - absolutely gorgeous and a real eye-catcher.

These are the perfect boots to wear with jeans tucked in, or with tights for a super-stylin' look.

Sizing Information:  Based on consumer reviews for the EMU Women's Hip Boot, they are known to run abouut 1/2 to a size large.  (Merchant recommendation is true to size, but I always check out the consumers' reports and advise based on those.)  Since they are available in full sizes only, my recommendation would be to purchase 1/2 size down if you wear a half size or 1 size down if you wear a full size.

If you are specifically shopping for any of the Women's EMU Hip Boot styles, the resources above should point you in the direction of the best shopping and the lowest prices online.

Black EMU Boots - Styles for Women


There are actually quite a number of Black EMU Boots to choose from for women these days - and the demand specifically for this color and brand combination appears to be quite high, based on some recent research I have done.

What styles of women's Black EMU boots are available?  On this page I will give a breakdown of the different styles available in black from EMU Australia, as well as some recommended shopping resources for each.

Let's start with what is shown directly on the left - the EMU Hip Button boot in Black - This I believe is a more recent version of the much loved, EMU Hip boot (shown later below).  I love the detailing for this boot with the straps that wrap around the boot and toggle buttons to hold them in place - adding quite a fashionable look to an already gorgeous style.

Black EMU Hip Boot (officially named "Hipper" - shown right) - This boot is proving to be one of the most loved boots from EMU Australia for women.  It has the same basic design as a classic Australian boot but with one big difference - the sides are open and the wrap around ties hold them closed - sigh.  This has got to be one of the most gorgeous winter boots I've seen in some time.  =)
Black EMU Mermaid Boot (shown left) - Many, many women love the look of this boot - the additional soft and contrasting trim adds so much to the looks, they are luxuriously comfortable as well (they even look like it!).

Black EMU Kimba Boots (shown right) - This is a bit of a different look than most other boots for women from EMU - sleek, stylish with a slouchy fit that is very much in fashion.  The Kimba boots are also lined with merino wool on the inside for a snuggly, warm, comfortable feel and fit - available in three heights: Hi, Mid and Lo.

Black EMU Stinger Boots (shown left) - This is the classic boot that many are likely searching for when they are shopping for "EMU Black Boots".  These are classic, Australian sheepskin boots made with excellent craftsmanship and loved by women who appreciate high fashion combined with superior comfort.  Available in Hi, Lo and Mini.

Black EMU Bronte Boots (shown right) - This is a suede and wool inner lining version of the Australian classic boot.  It is a great boot - high quality, comfortable feel and fit, and is a good choice for those on more of a budget due to it's lower price than the sheepskin versions.  Also available in Hi, Lo and Mini.
There are a few more styles for women to choose from that can fairly easily be found in black - but these are the highlights in terms of popularity and excellent consumer ratings. To find more EMU Women's Black Boots, the highest recommended resource is Endless - they carry the best stock as well as the best prices:
There is sure to be a pair of Black EMU Boots to fit your needs - and your budget! =D

About the EMU Women's Stinger Hi Boot:

When looking for a tall classic style Australian sheepskin boot,  the EMU Women's Stinger Hi boot is most definitely worth a check.  Not only is it every bit as stylish and comfortable as other brands of boots (per the majority of consumer reviews that I studied), it comes with something that makes it a bit easier to buy - a lower price tag.  =)

A retail price for the Women's Hi EMU Stinger will be similar to another brand, but slightly lower.  However, this boot tends to be marked down more than other brands and so is fairly easy to find at a discount price from the resources given on this page. 

Sizing Information for the EMU Women's Stinger Hi boot:  It is recommended to purchase this boot at one's usual size if they wear a full size, or one half size up if between sizes.  When one first wears these boots, they should expect them to fit a bit "too snug" - but be informed that they will stretch and after a few times of wearing them they should fit just right.

Great boots - great price too.  =)  Nice combination eh?

EMU Women's Stinger Lo Boot

To start off with, here are the best resources I have found online for the EMU Women's Stinger Lo Boot (check down the page for additional shopping options):

An additional option to purchase the Stinger Lo online is eBay:
Of all the auctions happening for this specific boot, the soonest-ending ones can be found just below:




About the EMU Women's Stinger Lo Boot:

Based on my study of consumer reviews, the EMU Women's Stinger Lo is one of the highest quality and comfortable sheepskin boots around.  It features a double-faced sheepskin upper and a soft sheepskin inner lining.  These boots have the special quality of not only keeping feet warm in the cold months of the year, but also keeping feet moisture free and cool in even the warmer months.

For those who are looking for a good value in a classic Australian sheepskin boot, the Stinger Lo for Women is a good bet - it's price at retail is a bit lower than what might be thought, and is also on sale or marked down to lower prices more often than other brands, which makes it even easier to buy.


Sizing for the EMU Women's Stinger Lo:  The women's EMU Stinger Lo Boot is known to fit a bit on the small side of the fence, but is also known to stretch after a few wearings.  It's available in full sizes only.  Bottom Line - if you are purchasing the boot and you wear a full size, purchase your normal size.  If you wear a half size, order 1/2 size up from your normal.  Expect the boot to fit a bit too snugly at first, but after wearing them a few times they should fit well.

Classic Stripe UGG Boots for Women - Shopping Online


If you're looking to add a fun new twist to a fall and winter wardrobe this year, Classic Stripe UGG Boots for women might be just the ticket. =)  These boots have such a fun and yet classic look - cable knit stitching and horizontal stripes that go all the way up the boot.

Colors:  The Classic Stripe UGG is available in Navy Blue, Black and Dark Brown stripes, against a cream or "off white" background.  They feature an inner sheepskin sock lining for comfort and extra warmth in the colder months of the year.

Some women may confess to wearing these around the house on colder days - they certainly do fit the bill for "house shoes" due to how comfy they feel - but of course they can be worn outdoors as well.

Here is the best shopping I have found online for the Classic Stripe boot from UGG:

Standardly you can expect to pay around $140 for these boots - often online resources will provide free shipping.

Additional shopping option: I did recently see these boots "surface" on eBay auctions and stores - you can give that a check right here:
Of all the auctions happening now, the soonest ending ones will be listed below:


Sizing information for the Classic Stripe UGG:  Like some other knit and crochet ugg boots, the Classic Stripe is known to fit about a size large.  If you normally wear a full size, order one size down from your usual.  If you are between sizes, or a "half size", then ordering one and half sizes down will get you the best fit.  These boots are made to fit a bit snug when they are worn - they conform to the foot easily and stretch a bit after wearing.

Women's EMU Stinger Boot - What's to Love?


What's to love about the Women's EMU Stinger?  I have found quite a few reasons why ladies might think this boot is pretty great - including and perhaps especially the price - depending on where one buys them, that is.

I have done quite a bit of delving into merchant and other resources that sell the EMU Women's Stinger boot, and have found that some resources are most definitely better than others, and you can save quite a bit of money if you know the right "rock to turn over" to find them!  =) 

To start with, I will show you the best resources for this trendy boot - then we'll go into a bit more detail about the boot itself.

Here are the best merchant deals that I have found for the Stinger - all versions (Hi, Lo and Mini) - most or all resources will provide free, fast shipping - often overnight!

You may not see any of the "Mini" versions of the boots above - and there is one place online that is the best for this height - you can check that out here, in case you are not able to see them above:
About the Women's Stinger Boot:  The Stinger boot has become more and more well known as one of the highest quality classic Australian sheepskin boots available.  It's craftsmanship and looks are top-knotch.

The retail price of the Stinger is similar but a bit lower than other brands of sheepskin boots of a similar style, but a bit lower - around $20 - $40 lower per pair.  However - there are far more instances of this boot being marked down or on sale than other brands, making them even more affordable.

Per the consumer reviews that I studied for the Women's Stinger boots, they are every bit as fashionable and cozy as the competition - there were some reviews that stated "not quite as good as Uggs..." but a vast majority of reviews stated that the quality and comfort were equal. 

Sizing for the Women's EMU Stinger:  The EMU classic boots follow different sizing rules than some other brands - while other brands run large, the EMU Stinger can be considered to be true to size, or perhaps a bit on the small size.  They are available in full sizes only.  Based on what I found from merchant recommendations and consumer reviews, one should order their normal size if they wear a full size, or order 1/2 size up from normal if between sizes (a "half size").  If they feel a bit too snug when putting them on, be advised that they do stretch, and will conform to the size of the foot for the best fit.

Bailey Button UGG Boots - Lovely New Classic Style, Best Shopping



Bailey Button UGG Boots are the newest release in the Classic Sheepskin boots line for women from UGG® Australia - and you just gotta love 'em.  =)

These boots are a fun and new twist on the UGG Classic Short boot - and although the two are the same height, there are some distinct differences between the two - there are openings on the sides of the Bailey Button UGG shaft, with a button closure on each side.  To add to the look there is a bit of sheepskin "fringe" peeking out the sides - soft, feminine and lovely.  Plus - like the other Classics from UGG, they're amazingly luxuriously comfy - you simply cannot beat them for quality and genuine Australian style.

Here is the best merchant shopping I have found for the Bailey Button UGG Boots (women's sizes only):

Now - another one of my "old standby's" for shopping most anything from the Classic UGG collection is eBay auctions and stores. There haven't been many auctions for the Bailey Button as of this writing, but my guess is that will change once they start catching on - you can check that here:
The soonest ending of any auctions that may be happening can be found just below:

EMU Australia Women's Boot - Amazing Styles, Great Buys


EMU Australia is becoming more and more well known in the fashion world - and when one takes a look at the EMU Australia Women's Boot styles available this year, it's no wonder why that might be!

Yes, EMU is a competitor to one of the most well-known names for classic Australian boots, but that isn't all that they offer - by a long shot!  The styles available from EMU do include the classics, but there are some variations on the classic look that are available as well - which to me sets this company apart from rest.

One thing that I think is also pretty remarkable for this line of boots is the prices - you can truly find some amazing prices for them online - much lower than with other brands.

On this post, you will find some examples of what exactly can be found among the Women's EMU Australia boot styles and some recommended shopping resources for them - you might just be as amazed as I was to see the incredible, gorgeous looks!

Here is a list of the most popular boots for women from EMU - starting with the most popular (based on my research):


Women's EMU Hip (shown right) - This is a goooorgeous boot, basically based on the Classic Australian.  (As a note, this boot is officially named "Hipper", but is most commonly known as the "EMU Hip".)  The sides of this boot are open and there are ties that wrap about the boot to fasten them in place.  This creates a look that many women love - proven by the fact that so many ladies are shopping for them!  There are actually three versions of this boot - the Women's EMU Hip Boot ("Hipper"), "Hip Button" and the "Tall Hip", all of which have a bit of a different look, and all of which are fabulous.

Women's EMU Stinger (shown left) - This is the most loved of the "classics" from the Australian sheepskin boots from EMU - it definitely has a look that is very in style these days, and per consumer reviews is every bit as comfortable and wearable as other brands.  You will find a bit of a lower price for the Stinger compared to other brands as well.  Nice variety of colors too!  Available in three heights: EMU Women's Stinger Hi, EMU Women's Stinger Lo (shown left) and the Mini version (ankle height).



Women's EMU Paddington Boot (shown right) - This is another boot that I practically swoon over.  I love the looks of the strapping around the boot and the toggle buttons to hold them in place.  The Paddington is constructed with double-faced sheepskin for the upper and a soft, warm inner lining, available in both Hi and Lo versions.

Women's EMU Bronte Boot (shown left) - When particularly concerned with economics, this might be a good boot to check over.  It's price tag is quite a bit less than other similar styles of Australian boots - just be aware of the fact that rather than sheepskin, this boot is constructed with a suede upper and merino wool inner lining but is still known to be amazingly warm and cozy.  It is a boot of good quality, and again is a good choice if you are on a budget, but still appreciate the classic Australian boot style. Very nice variety of colors - the women's EMU Bronte is available in Hi, Lo and Mini versions.


Women's EMU Mermaid (shown right) - This is a lovely and stylish boot - soft trimming about the seams - they look as warm and cozy as they actually are!  Available in some lovely colors - my favorite is the black boot with white trim - very sharp look.

You may have noticed the number of times that Endless is mentioned above - the reason is that they have a rather amazing selection and stock of these boots - and their prices are right.  I consider Endless to be the resource for practically "anything EMU".  =D

More to come in the following days - all about the EMU Australia Women's Boot styles - there are some fabulous boots, and lots more info on them!

Classic UGG Boots - Fall and Winter 2009 & 2010



Classic UGG Boots are a rather different subject than they have been in the past couple of years since they became one of the hottest fashion trends in history - there are quite a few more UGG Boot Classics to choose from this year and for us "UGG lovers" this is a great thing!

Here is a list of the styles of classic boots - along with a bit of information and "best shopping" tips for each style (all resources with fast, free shipping and free returns when needed) - starting with newest style first:


Argyle UGG Classic Boots (shown right) - These are a lovely and romantic addition to the Classics lineup this year from UGG Australia - and one of my personal favorites.  It has an argyle knit pattern and is the absolutely perfect touch to a winter ensemble.

Classic Stripe UGG Boots (shown left) - Here is a bit of "pizzazz" for a winter wardrobe!  These classic cable knit stripes are endowed with a fun look of horizontal stripes up the boot.  Very comfy and very stylin'.  =)

Bailey Button UGG Boots (shown right) - This is a great new version of the "Classic Short" with an opening on the sides of the boots, button closures with the traditional "UGG Australia" logo on the buttons.  Gorgeous.

Classic UGG Crochet - These boots have two versions - the original Classic UGG Crochet and the Cardy Classic UGG boots (shown left).   The original classic is a bit harder to track down, and appear to have been discontinued.  However as of this writing there are still some places to find them.  The Cardy boot almost needs no introduction - it has become one of the hottest selling boots in the entire UGG collection.  There are some new and classic, traditional colors to choose from this year.

Classic Short UGG Boot (shown right) - This boot may never go out of style.  The perfect look for winter, soft and cozy fit and available in traditional and some fun new colors as well as some gorgeous metallic shades.  These go great with jeans - either tucked in or worn outside of the boot. 

Classic Tall UGG Boot (shown left) - This boot might be the most familiar among them all, and is a great "warm and cozy" boot for the winter.  The tall height is also available in traditional and some new colors - also some metallic and "Fancy" looks.  =)


Shopping Tips for Classic UGG Boots - Over the past couple of years since these boots became such a "hot ticket" in the fashion world, they can be a bit tough to find online during the coldest months of the year - perhaps especially just before and after Christmas-time.  It is a good idea to start shopping before the Christmas rush hits and even in the months prior.  They are normally available in the best selection in the fall, just as the new styles are arriving in stores (including online stores) in September and October.  If you would be happy with one of a few colors, you might also try shopping after Christmas, in January or February.  The color and selection might not be as good, but you'll very likely find some great markdown prices during these times.

Sizing Information for Classic UGG Boots - The crochet and knit classics (such as the Argyle or Cardy boots) are known to fit a size large.  Sizing recommendation for these boots is to purchase one size down if you are a full size, or if between sizes one and a half sizes down from normal.  For the Classic Tall, Short and Bailey Button, it is recommended to purchase one size down if you are a full size, one half size down if between sizes.

I hope that this helps you out if you are shopping for any of the Classic UGG Boot styles for fall and winter 2009 and 2010 - there truly are some lovely and cozy looks to choose from!  (Note:  There will be more posts to come - one for each of the categories listed above so you can have a much deeper look into price and selection options.)
