Ugg boots were a sensation in the late 1990s, specially in the US, where celebrities like Pamela Anderson, the Olsen twins and Kate Hudson wore them frequently and their sales skyrocketed. In 2000, Oprah gifted 350 pairs of Ugg boots to her audience during a live show. Of course, that helped the brand, too. It’s Oprah! It became a must-have item. It’s been 20 years since those days. Today Ugg boots are still relevant, still stylish and in fashion. The company has expanded the range of products they sell to include rain boots \ wellie boots. In the review below, we look at the Ugg Sienna boots and see if they are worthy of the Ugg brand.

Comfort
One of the first things we want to know when buying shoes, especially boots, is are they comfortable. There’s nothing worse than boots that rub and cause your feet to ache. Fortunately, The Sienna rubber boots are actually pretty comfortable to wear. The boots are made from PVC, which is notorious for being too firm and inflexible around the ankle, which causes rubbing. However, the Sienna boots do not suffer from this problem and we experienced no rubbing when walking.
Thanks to the shearling insole (sheep wool), the boots felt snug and they provided a good degree of shock absorption when walking.
Style
Without a doubt and as previously stated, these Ugg boots are stylish, fashionable and totally trendy. Although they are common rain boots, they are still amazingly cute and they come in two different finishes: the original high-gloss finish and a matte finish. Both are great, the original ones come in three different colors: black, charcoal and pink. The other one comes only in black and charcoal. Additionally, they have a marbled finish rain boot, which updates the original classic and gives it a cool twist.
Warmth
The boots have a wool insole which helps insulate feet from cold surfaces, which certainly helps keep feet warmer. Unfortunately, the rest of the boot has a thin textile lining which provides very little insulation. This is a shame as the it means the boots are not really suited to cold conditions. At the same time they are not that well suited to warmer weather because the wool insole means feet get hot and sweaty.
Ugg sell Sienna rain boot socks that will help keep feet warmer in cold conditions.
Traction
Rain boots \ wellie boots are going to be mainly worn when the weather is wet. Which generally means that the ground is going to be slippery. So its important that the boots have good traction to prevent slipping and falling over. The Ugg Sienna boots have a rubber outsole and along with the treads give a reasonable amount of traction. The small block heel of the boots provides additional traction in muddy conditions by sinking into the ground to give extra grip.
Best For
The Ugg Sienna boots are very stylish and can be worn as fashion footwear for just about any occasion. The boots are also practical, they’re 100% waterproof and thanks to the wool insole they will keep feet warm. This makes the boots ideal for wearing in cities and towns on wet days.
Value for Money
Saying if something is good value for money is always tricky. People have very different views on what constitutes good value for money. If you are after some good looking, practical boots, from a world famous brand, then the Ugg Sienna boots do offer good value for money. Especially when compared to similar products from other big brands like Hunter, which you will pay quite a bit more for. It should be noted that all Hunter boots are made from natural rubber. The Sienna boots are made from plastic (PVC).
Construction & Quality
The inside of the Sienna boots have a textile lining which helps feet slide into the boots. We did find that the ankle area of the boots is slightly on the narrow side which made putting the boots on and taking them off more difficult than expected.
The insole of the boots is made from natural wool, which will flatten over time but should remain comfortable for many years.
The outer material of the Sienna boots is PVC (plastic). This makes the boots very tough and durable.
The soles of the boots is made from rubber, which is great for grip, but the rubber does tend to wear over time. This shouldn’t be much of a problem for this type of rain boot which isn’t a ‘working’ boot that you would wear all day.
Final Thoughts
Overall the Ugg Sienna boots are a great pair of fashionable rain boots that are ideally suited to city dwellers. The boots are well made and should last at least 3 years and possibly much longer depending on usage.
We’ve given the Ugg Sienna boots a rating of 4.4 out of 5
I hope this Ugg Sienna boots review has provided the information you need to decide if the Sienna boots are right for you.

I've been working with rubber boots (aka rain boots, wellies) in one way or another, since 2009. So, i've seen a lot of wellington boots in my time. I create most of the content for the website, which i hope you find useful.
