Shear pleasure

THE weather is changing rapidly and the bare feet of summer are getting a bit cold.
It might be time to Ugg up!
Rosewool City Uggs and Rugs in Palmerin Street, opposite the post office, has Uggs and slippers in all sizes and colours to suit all tastes.
“We have plenty of products to keep people warm in the coming months including Ugg boots, slippers, sheepskin shoes and scuffs as well as plenty of sheepskin blankets,” store owner Tony Gilchrist said.
“We also have a large range of beautiful cow hides, toy animals, roo hides, car seat covers, saddle blankets and single and double sheepskins (doubles are two sewn together) – all at great prices, sale on now!”
He said he’d just recently had a lady come back into the shop to thank him after buying a sheepskin.
“She said she’d had the best sleep ever,” he said.
“The nice thing about sheep skin is that it stops you from sweating in the hot weather but still keeps you very warm in the cold.”
All Ugg boots and slippers are Australian made and designed to keep the warmth in during winter.
He said the shop even has a line of Ugg boots with a plastic coating over the top with animal print designs for those who are reluctant to wear their leather boots outside in the wet grass when putting the washing on the line.
The plastic covering offers a level of water proofing without having to wait for boots to dry out after a quick trip outside into the wet grass.
Tony said friendly shop assistant Ellen Paget is on hand to help customers with all their shoe and sheepskin needs.
