They were originally called "ug boots" or "ugh boots", which is short for "ugly". Traditionally, the term "ugg boot" referred to a style of Australian boot made with sheepskin. During World War I, pilots wore a fleece-lined "FUG" (flying ugg) boot, and a type of ugg boot was also worn in Australia as early as the 1930s by farmers wanting to keep their feet warm. In the 1960s Australian surfers would put on ugg boots to warm their feet after coming in from riding the waves, and people in Australia would often wear ugg boots around the house during the mild winters.
