The Truth about UGGS.

UGGS may be comfortable and totally fashionable, but do you know the truth?

[@oliviasalais7055]

GUYS STOP!!! Yeah she wears them because the sheep is already dead. She did the research after they were bought. She just wanted to raise awareness. :)

[@15dkgcitronu]

she is saying - go and buy them, but be aware. Where is the point then?

[@kendalowens8704]

Every time you say "sheeps" i die inside a little.

[@tatyanayeremuk106]

u r wrong too, it's not a sheeps or sheep. Its SHEAPS. The word chips comes from Sheaps

[@tatyanayeremuk106]

u r wrong too, it's not a sheeps or sheep. Its SHEAPS. The word chips comes from Sheaps

[@sabrinagarcia5205]

If you "fell bad" then DONT WEAR THEM!

[@sinsualchoc]

True

[@nicolita222222]

I bought some uggs and then I researched it and I couldn't look at my uggs the same. I always thought they just shave them , but then I read about the skinning. It killed me. I am not a vegan, just a vegetarian, but my heart was in so much pain when I figured this out!

[@tonibell1080]

+Nicole Melendez Pena i am a vegetarian too :D

[@ssm6873]

It’s not that deep

[@dianayate03]

I randomly found this video and I honestly was hoping that at the end you were going to say that you returned those things! if you want to educate people you first need to be an example!

[@laurenhammond2019]

Return them if your gonna make a big deal about it

[@paolacardona1506]

In one part she is saying how the sheep are mistreated and then she says "I Love my boots they are gorgeous"

[@magar8310]

wHEN U SAID ,PEOPLE LIKE ME CAN'T DO ANYTHING .... YOUR WRONG, YOU ALREADY ARE DOING SOMETHING REALLY IMPORTANT : LET PEOPLE KNOW HOW THIS BOOTS ARE MADE . THANK YOU .

[@brendag8802]

👎

[@matthewmoore5783]

You used caps lock incorrectly, please fix it in the future. Thank you for your time.

[@rainbowunisis2387]

The part when you said about the cows being cared nicely, I'm sorry to say that your wrong about that too. Cows are raised in factory farms and they are beaten and given steroids to grows :(

[@ketz1590able]

You see (directed at the comment below mine) it's not just the wool that is cut from sheep to manufacture Uggs. Workers also cut off the sheep's skin (think of uggs like sheep skin turned inside out so that the fur is on the inside) before the sheep is slaughtered for its meat. That's right before it is slaughted, it's still alive when the sheep's skin is scraped from its flesh. To cut down on manufacturing costs the sheep are not put to sleep before the skinning, instead they are tied tightly to metal posts. After the sheep are skinned they are put onto ships where they must travel long hours without food or water to slaughter houses (they are brought to a slaughter house because they will mostly likely die from infection before their skin grows back). I would also like to mention that the sheep in which are used in the production of Uggs are not native to Australia (they are from countries with cool climates like Russia) and many of these sheep die of heat exhaustion. Please don't let the media educate you. You have a brain, use it! Research companies before you give them your hard earned dollars.

[@haileymacleod3520]

I hate the way people are commenting how stupid she is. She loves animals and cares. If you don't like it GO TO ANOTHER FUCKING VIDEO!!!!! Its not that hard. Thank you sweetie for caring about animals :)

[@lisaandsage]

There are so many faux options, you absolutely ARE NOT limited to animal skins and fur.

[@brookemarietietje8725]

I have 3 pairs of uggs and I am not taking them back

[@nmurphy8289]

very brave of you to shoot this video. thanks for caring.

[@kellyjanice]

I can not even read the comments. People are so ignorant. You CAN do something. You CAN avoid animal products. There are clothes, beds, shoes, purses and food that does not come from animals. I am vegan, I have been for 10 years. I have avoided animal products for 10 years and still have a bed to sleep on, clothes to wear, and food to eat. I even have makeup and other beauty products with no animal ingredients and are not tested on animals. Now are there some things at this point that are unavoidable depending on where you live, yes. I know there are some animal ingredients in the tires on my car. I do not live in a city where I can walk everywhere, but if everyone refused to support these cruel and unnecessary torturous practices, then the small byproducts used for things would disappear altogether. Choose compassion, go vegan.

[@RachelSmith-im4el]

Grow up!! If you don't like how the boots are made then why do you have a pair and why do you keep rubbing them and saying you LOVE them??

[@babescraftroom]

Watch her video once again and really listen to what she is saying... she returned the boots because she feels bad for the sheep who are being killed ... search youtube, Pink has a video out there that tells you all about how they are killed for making Ugg boots..

[@RachelSmith-im4el]

I feel bad for the sheep too but I do not cry over them like they're my own kid

[@RachelSmith-im4el]

Answer this; if she's not willing to wear "dead sheep" (as you call it) on her feet why did she get a pair

[@RachelSmith-im4el]

i was lstening but dont judge me by my opinion

[@sinsualchoc]

Hahahaaaaa!

[@lilyjoy0257]

Im gonna set this straight! I am getting so pissed off!!! You kill chicken and cows and many animals for food and cows are tortured also! Another fact is the sheep video isn't just for uggs it's for sweaters, rugs, pillows, blankets, anything made with wool basically! Another thing is they don't kill the sheep unless it was scared and tried to fight back. People need to stop targeting uggs. Like no one cries for chickens! No one cried for other animals that we eat! Better to wear the animals than eat them!

[@timthomasjim]

Mylifeaslilyc Wool is just the fur of the sheep.

[@willmeneely2308]

The plural form of sheep, is sheep. NOT sheeps!

[@cocomcalister8408]

Will Meneely I know that bugged me too

[@MakingSmilesXD]

Yeah but the sheep who get slaughter we eat too. So its not a waste. That's what the sheep are bread for. And why the heck would you buy them if you have such a big problem. Sure it is sad but that's what we use them for. But think of the Natives and how they used to slaughter animals for clothes! That's what we still do today.

[@laurenbyrnes3381]

the wool and skin for uggs is not a byproduct they are used for only their wool and after 2-4 years are sent to the middle east and painfully/ consciencely slaughtered if they don't die in their own droppings on the boat ride to the middle east

[@coryxkenshin1550]

I cry so much...I'm an empath and my bf knows how much I love animals 😢 and for valentines he buys me a pair of uggs....I feel so hurt I never opened the box and returned it

[@elexajones7070]

If it's so gross or sick then why are u touching them or even taking the time to do this I understand u love animals but if I were u I would not be touching them or even simply looking at them

[@OurPetss.]

I saw a lamb born. Precious and so cute. I thought Uggs were from the sheering of the lambs not killing them. Gives me something to think about. Bless you or posting this.

[@lexib4598]

Where did you get your uggs? They ripped you off. Cause regular bailey button uggs are $165.

[@vidastar]

I have purple and blue bailey bows and they are real but.... sheep are not killed, they shave them, clean the wool, dye it, then design them. Trust me. And my profile pic is my uggs. ALSO, if you were so sickened then why were you rubbing the boots constantly like they were the softest thing in the world?

[@MrRubydoo234]

It's sheep SKIN, not sheep fur. They cut the skin off of the sheep, killing it. It's not just fur. They openly say sheep skin on the website, it's not that hard to figure out. Do your research.

[@vidastar]

MrRubydoo234 Oh, I just realized that because how else would they make the boots? Well, now I know, and maybe she was rubbing them so much because she is an animal lover and loves feeling sheep?? IDK lucky guess....

[@alinasistermans9544]

dumb little shit!!! of course their killed for that? they also need their skin

[@sarahziemke48]

This girl is too young to be blamed for having Uggs. I know sheep are being tortured on many farms in Australia while making these boots, check out the videos they have on it. Pink actually makes a great three minute one called The Real Story of Uggs. Little girl, if you wanna make a bigger point, end your video by donating them to a homeless kid, or I dunno, burn them, lol. Tell your middle-class parents to buy you vegan boots ONLY!??????

[@sarahjackson6984]

At least she is spreading awareness

[@Henini-kk7ty]

I know you mean well but there are lots of cows, pigs, sheep, chickens, and what not. In my opinion UGGS need to have better care for their sheep like they do with cows

[@highlyquestionable8591]

So you "care" so much as to post this video, but you are still going to wear them? You want people to check out the link in your bio in the hope that they are discouraged from buying uggs, but you are still going to wear yours? Oh right because the animal is already dead so might as well wear them. 😑

[@doranvannifterick7143]

+Melissa Sanchez i do respect your reaction still i think this girl does care :) otherwise she would not post this video i think in a way its better that this girl who knows about how the Uggs are made owns and wears them because some people do not know at all :) NO HATE AT ALL and i am sorry if i misspelled some words i also thought about buying some UGGs but i heard about the way they are made and i do not want to buy them anymore

[@michellerose3594]

if your such an "animal lover" and properly educate yourself about animal abuse and go vegan

[@kenyionawoods1216]

Girl shut up an go vegan 😡

[@heatherpriddy7639]

400 million fewer animals where slaughtered in 2014 compared to 2007 because the demand for animal products is going down! Never feel like you can't make a difference because every purchase matters :) The sheep have already been killed for those UGGS but they only make as many shoes as needed to supply for the demand.

[@Real3175]

Hahaha how ironic, the beginning of this video had an UGG ad with Tom Brady.

[@ang12345ie]

She's returning them!! Did you not here her in the video? Plus she's trying to help a good cause. So stop saying that she was a bad speaker, or she was stupid or something.

[@uncleben7898]

There are more cows being killed for leather and lived a much harsher life then the sheep.

[@lillianayoshino423]

+Uncle ben 789 two wrongs don't make a right and one does not justify the other. They're both wrong and both need to be slapped with some humane policies.

[@gurtrudefalanji7864]

As a shearer and sheep owner I can say that sheep are not raised like that, in Australia anyway. A sheep's life begins in a large paddock and they are only placed in pens for shearing time and crutching (with exception to mulesing and vaccinations etc.)

[@3caitybug]

Ok so yes I feel kinda bad and it sounds terrible... But God created animals for us. We need to eat, we need to stay warm and if that what it takes then... Although I thought that it was just the fur too, that part about it killed me.

[@Tatiana22loveyapink]

Kennedi Andrus i totally agree with you i changed my lifestyle after i found out what i was eating, i've been a vegan for 5 months now and i feel GREAT!

[@HelloKidney.]

No he didn't :/ in the bible it says not to take or use the lives of the animals with life in them..

[@maud968]

@theveagan_diaries what bible were you reading because you can't eat decomposed meat and back in the bible days they are meat the shit that people have created now to love healthier like salads and all that bullshit as not created back then

[@maud968]

@thevegan_diaries

[@spacejams9623]

OMG i very much agree with you, we need to stay warm we need to eat etc we all aren't vegan

[@haleydriggers6234]

The sheep. Didn't die. They shave them or trim their fur and then they grow it back.

[@tonibell1080]

+Haley Driggers Not true they get the outside of the boot from the sheep too its sheep skin DUH!

[@haleydriggers6234]

+Toni Bell oh my mistake. I commented this a year ago and didn't really know what I was talking about😂

[@tonibell1080]

Oh ok and let me just state this but ur so pretty :)

[@haleydriggers6234]

+Toni Bell aw thank you so much!!

[@tonibell1080]

Np its true :P

[@theparamnesiafacade493]

Can't wait until scientist figure out a way to just grow these materials in labs in bulk rather then slaughtering sheep or any other animal for that matter, granted I don't plan on becoming vegan any time soon and the idea of hamburger grown in a lab may sound repulsive I see nothing wrong with it as long as it tastes great and has no adverse effects to ones health.

[@leylaplays7580]

I cant wait either

[@JuliusFawcett]

I've been eating a vegan diet for 18 years. It is quite possible to live a life that does not exploit animals. There is no need to beat yourself up about it, or allow anyone else to beat you up about it. You are trying your best, you are loving, you are kind, you are gentle, you are powerful, you are capable, you are strong, you can believe in yourself more, you do change the world with every choice that you make, trust your intuition, you know what is right for you. Keep your head up :)

[@reneepowers9001]

You CAN do something about it, one person can make a difference. You are not helpless. Making the choice not to buy any animal products moving forward WILL make a difference.

[@morgana.2140]

Why did you even buy them if you think they are so bad?

[@yasmine5105]

If you consume it you can wear it I guess?

[@nhihatran833]

They're $125

[@HannahFoppoli12]

1. Why not tell you family members before you actually get uggs 2 why were you anxiously playing with your uggs?

[@heaven_sita]

I love how this activist is just so peaceful about no cursing I don’t buy uggs I wear bearpaw but it’s the same thing. When she said “we can’t fix it” girl yes you can believe in yourself you can make a difference in animal abuse. #Wecanmakeadifference I know I’m weird but I just wanted to say this.

[@ChristineDiGioia]

You're probably one of the smartest people I know. I don't think I'll be buying anymore uggs.

[@lizagarcia2117]

Thank you for sharing this information with me, I owned a pair that lasted me 3 winters and after watching your story and how sad and confused you were due to the mixed feelings, I will not buy any more UGG boots for me or my daughter. Thank you for caring and making a difference.

[@sinsualchoc]

Dang lady ,u mmmmmhhh

[@abriannao.4056]

Yes, it's sad, but you and your daughter not wearing UGGS, isn't gonna really make a difference... :/. People will still wear UGGS.

[@catarinaalmeida9639]

This was once a sheep you know that and you still touch them?

[@420Kleiner]

And?

[@sugarpop2003]

OMG skinning animals isn't animal cruelty get the facts right it doesn't kill them. Wool sweaters R made of sheep skin and skinning isn't killing Sheeps. And by well cared for means their wool is nice and course and they have to feed animals on the farm or it is against the law. It does not kill them skinning is removing the heavy pelt for the summer. Get your facts straight.😐 And u r saying mean things about Sheeps.

[@lauraelizabeth4226]

Uggs are made of the skin of sheep, not just the wool. There is a big difference between 'shearing' and 'skinning' a sheep.

[@Ae0liann]

Lol nobody cared for uggs till now

[@Ae0liann]

larhonda burger loser

[@lauraelizabeth4226]

Rodney James try harder, troll

[@Ae0liann]

Laura Elizabeth LOL you cry over uggs so I think you're the troll here :)

[@giannarosa213]

Tbh it's not really worth worrying about. I get that you don't like how sheeps are treated. But when you put your foot into your uggs, your not putting it into a dead sheep. Your putting it into wool. The skin is cleaned properly and on the outside. I wouldn't worry.

[@rabiaalegoz]

Why would u still wear it if u feel this bad for them. Ironic

[@adashrewsbury7938]

I think that as long as u r aware of where your fashion comes from, then u should deffinetly have the opinion to buy them or not. She is slightly contridicting her decsions, i agree, but she's educated at least on what happened before her boots were bought. I have a couple pairs of boots myself and I LOVE THEM, but i understand and looked up what happened in order for me to have them, but i still made the decision to buy more pairs.

[@vahn757]

Why do you keep rubbing the shoes ??? And if you love animals, then why did you spend $250 on some sheep made shoes??? O.o

[@tonibell1080]

OMG if u hate how they get killed and ur a animal lover then why did u buy the damn uggs???!!!!

[@420Kleiner]

It's not like they kill a sheep every time a person buys a pair

[@starbucksisbae1497]

she acts like people dont already KNOW what their made of and the sheep are already dieing for lamb chops and I wear Uggs and dont eat lamb chops to make up for it

[@abriannao.4056]

To you guys saying that she still bought the UGG boots after knowing that the sheep were killed, and sheared... Yes, she knew that they were killed and sheared, but she thought that they were taken care of with love and nature, by being fed nutritiously, *before* given a death sentence. This girl is just a child. Get off her case, and stop repeating what others are saying in the comment section. Have an opinion of your own.

[@thtssonatalie.xo686]

My question is why are you deciding to go on KZbin and make a HUDGE rant about uggs so you think your the good person but yet you haven one

[@samekogan]

she said she was unaware and is returning them...

[@Thatonepersoniguess]

No sometimes they dont have to kill the animal. They can just trim the fur and use the trimed fur for the boots ._____. °^° but idk if they do that for uggs but on some other boots they do and purses.

[@isbeliaortiz147]

This video is amazing i wanna cry.. All those haters alout there have no feelings for anything this is really sad

[@madelinekim4414]

Cheers to you for making this video! I think that some people need to start realizing that this is wrong and they should not be this popular.

[@errolthecat]

you couldn't imagine wearing your cat or dog...well, guess what...google dog and cat fur - people do (knowingly or not unfortunately) And btw, you didn't have to buy the boots - there's alternatives to leather.

[@ManicObsessiveMe]

Dont ever think something is out of your power. Everything you do impacts somebody somewhere. If you speak on animal cruelty it could inspire ten more people & those ten people could inspire each ten more people all the sudden theres 100 people not supporting this type of industry. Stay strong.

[@stephaniejean7324]

I wish I was as educated as you when I was younger. animal exploitation is out of this world.. but remember, we vote with our dollar every time we choose to buy something. by purchasing those Uggs and other fur and leather goods, you are paying for the farms to continue to mistreatment of the animals. next time, no matter the looks or desire, skip it and choose something that's friendly to both animals and the earth. you're well on your way.. there's always a new day to make better choices.

[@iisjltii1004]

How did I end up watching this

[@Elisha_Empress]

Why do you have them if animal cruelty is your concern? I'm confused?!?

[@thtssonatalie.xo686]

Elisha Moore exactly what I'm wondering

[@samekogan]

she said she was unaware and was returning them. did you not listen? lol

[@creativedutchess4866]

So you made a 7 minute video, to end it saying "I'm not saying don't buy UGGS because they are gorgeous, but be aware" ? Then what's the point?

[@jalynmonique9871]

I hate these boots because millions of sheep die a year for fashion. Taking them to die in a slaughterhouse is just awful

[@oscarromero1996]

As she tell you in the video she did no research before she bought them. Her heart is in the right place but she just doesn't know how to say the information. it just kills her she bought 250 dollar boots she feels disgusted to wear.

[@angelashley9614]

I hope you took them uggs back. If not, do u think if those poor little sheep everytime ur little foot is in the boot?

[@Preppyvlogsbyacey]

The sweet keychain is pretty stylish though...

[@devadams39]

Very informative! Thank you for posting this video!!! :-) do you have moccsain boots,shoes? Or jellie sandals??? & do you have new pairs of toms shoes???

[@ariona4314]

umm..bailey buttons aren't usually over $200 unless you get the tall ones..

[@elizabethrurey1080]

I have one pair now and I know I am getting another pair, and this will be my last pair! I have eight pairs of Toms thinking I was making a difference, and now I have realized what they are really made out of. I thank you! I had a friend say don't get them, but since it is right around Christmas and I have already asked for them I can't stop that and the funny thing is she was wearing real leather boots! So thank you for being a strong leader and animal lover because I can't stand to see animals suffer and we have to take a stand! I would love to see more videos about what brands treat there animals with disrespect.Thank you

[@alexahayden8849]

im not trying to spam ur feed but, its not sheeps its just sheep

[@wendymendezp6744]

so she is not kidding she is an animal lover because she kept them n didnt return them

[@disney207]

Omg so true , I totally understand this girl . I still want the product , but I want it done in a humane way. Personally I would like the sheep to well cared for , and happy for all of its life , then when it dies , i would like it to be turned into my Uggs

[@tinacampbell8867]

You didn't wear them yet! You could have returned them!!! And you're telling us to "don't be ignorant"?! You are part of them problem if you own them. I hate SeaWorld and you will NEVER see me there because I don't support the way their animals are treated. Even if my ticket only cost $60. I would not give it to them!

[@SunburntPasta]

I don't have uggs and I never really wanted them because they were popular at my school but then (how it always works) if I bought uggs then they would probably not be popular anymore. Plus I'm not buying no boots for over 100 dollars. This was not a rude comment btw

[@Pinkplampuffate]

Keeps touching the uggs over and overrrrr lol

[@yvonnecad]

Thanks for thinking outside the box and thinking about who is suffering beyond what we consume. You are a very smart compassionate young girl. Young people like you will make the would a little better. I do not use any animal products for this reason but it took me a lot longer than you to be aware of how things are made. You are an inspiration. Just a tip, if you could make a shorter video Im sure it would get more views and get the message across to more people.

[@SorchaMorency]

So wear them but feel bad about it?

[@Stary_nights-at_myhouse]

Everyone's needs to take a minute to realize she's a child stop harassing her about what is right and what is wrong most children don't even have this kind of understanding for the real world give the girl some credit

[@montta15]

This is senseless. She did a research and still bought them.

[@Elisha_Empress]

Exactly!

[@oliviasalais7055]

She did research after she bought them..

[@keemcz]

she did research after she brought them you dum bitch

[@isbeliaortiz147]

This video is really sad..i wanna cry.. All those haters have no feelings

[@glamour-qp5dw]

I still going to wear my ugga

[@glamour-qp5dw]

Uggs

[@HorseNNLuver]

Also if it bugs u so much how bout u return them? But u still said u loved the boot...

[@s89hblr]

I think maybe you could use that boots for your cat's playhouse if s/he is small enough. I wish you could convince UGG customers a truth.

[@kenzieb8748]

Thank you for making this video. it is horrible how they treat these poor animals just to make shoes!

[@Henini-kk7ty]

People in East Asia wear dogs, cats, and bunnies for boots

[@mybrorox1997]

whattttt?¿ i thought they only shaved the sheep not abused it too

[@squawrainbow]

Wool shaving of a sheep or lama is necessary for the animal ! ==== uggs are made from dog- and cat fur too so called imitation fur on clothes etc is also NOT imitation (make of other stuff) but also from dogs and cats minks are normally anal electrocuted or skinned alive so be aware what you want/do

[@clarissaalessi]

if the uggs make you sick inside to look at..... then RETURN THEM. and if you are an animal lover then why did you say they are gross????

[@fede16091980]

So you're saying: buy UGGs 'cause they are gorgeous but be aware of what you're buying? It doesn't make much sense to me...we should all stop buying leather and fur stuff!!!

[@peacelovepianoandgum]

How we're those boots 200+ on the website they are 165! Dude you got ripped

[@karliepayne370]

For all of you saying "the sheep don't die" yes they do. first they shave them for the fur for the inside of the boot, then they skin the sheep to make the outside. Tthe sheep bleeds to death and dies.

[@karliepayne370]

and yes this is animal cruelty but if you think about it we kill cows, pigs, ext all the time so we have the meat we eat. We don't have to eat meat to live. And I love UGGS but its wrong.

[@Alex347Fin]

they don't kill them -_- they just shave them

[@paulinazoltkowski4614]

No they kill them. Skin is different than wool. And the types that this girl is talking about is the actual skin. Not wool.They kill them and actually use their skin. Learn the difference

[@bre3334]

Half of these people are going to boo hoo about it and still buy uggs

[@firebubbles1532]

Okay, now I don't even want to wear my pair....they were expensive and now I'm just, grossed out and yeah...

[@elonailjazi413]

You guys should know that after the the sheep can't produce wool anymore people put them into some kind a shipping truck and bring them to a place WHERE THEY ALL GET SLAUGHTERED!! FOR THE LOVE OF GOD WHO NEEDS ANIMAL FUR?? I am a huge animal lover too and I know sheep is food to some people but it is just to cruel no animal deserves to die like that. PLEASE COMMENT AND SUPPORT TO STOP ANIMAL ABUSE AND FUR FARMS!!

[@jordananderson7285]

First of all, the plural for sheep is sheep. You need to get your facts straight. Not sheep dies whenever you sheer them to get the wool. My neighbors have sheep and I have cows. They MUST feed their sheep or else wool wouldn't grow. I have cows and it's the same way. The farms take wonderful care of their animals. Now get your stuff straught before you go acting like a miss know it all!!! Your ridiculous. And quit bashing farmers.

[@joesephblow5555]

do you have leather shoes. That was once a calf drinking from it's mom. So was my steak from last night.
