UGG uses sheepskin. When purchasing a product online, the details will also state the use of sheepskin. There have been protests from animal rights groups since 2000 to current day because of their use of sheepskin. https://www.ugg.com/about-sheepskin.html https://www.ugg.com/women-boots-classic-boots/classic-short-ii/1016223.html?dwvar_1016223_color=CHE&utm_source=google&utm_medium=pla&cq_src=google_ads&cq_cmp=20511512314&cq_con=&cq_term=&cq_med=pla&cq_plac=&cq_net=x&cq_pos=&cq_plt=gp&gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiA98WrBhAYEiwA2WvhOmZSQVaBYpl39vmp9trQeR9qcqCWHA_XcHnzOmwG6ziOJ_VSexdzzxoCR2wQAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/UGG_(brand) https://www.peta.org/media/news-releases/uggs-40th-anniversary-party-to-prompt-peta-protest-40-years-of-cruelty/ https://footwearnews.com/business/legal-news/peta-ugg-cease-desist-humane-claims-1203556615/amp/ https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/the-uggly-truth/
