This is a second articles on How to Clean Ugg ® Boots. it provides a little mre depth that the previous article.

You've now got your first pair of Ugg ® boots and after wearing them for a while you may find that they have started to lose that new look about them.  In this article we are going to provide you with some tips on how to clean your Ugg® boots so that they stay looking as good as new.

As you will soon discover because these particular boots are extremely comfortable to wear you may find that you will wear them constantly.  This then leads to them becoming covered in dirt and dust as well as retaining the odors that have come from your feet. An easy way to ensure that your Ugg ® boots retain that just brought look is by using a special product for cleaning them.

The biggest problem that may stop you from buying such a cleaning product is the price.  Certainly some of the ones that are advertised for use by boot makers can be extremely expensive.  So rather than waste money on these we provide a number of steps to clean your Ugg® Boots and ensure that they stay looking as good as they day they came out of the box.

Step 1 - You need to very lightly dampen the outside of the boot with some cold water.  It is important that at no stage do you fully immerse them in water.  Immersing them in water not only affects the lining of the boot inside but will also cause the boot to become misshaped.

Step 2 - At this stage you need to mix 1 part cleaning solution (suitable for cleaning leather) with 1 part water and again taking a sponge you dip it into this solution and then wipe this over the outside of the boot.

Step 3 - Gently rub the cleaning solution over the boots and then immediately follow this up with another sponge which has been dipped in cold water once more.  This will then rinse of any of the excess cleaning solution as well as help to remove the dirt.

Step 4 - Once you have cleaned your boots you now need to stuff them full with either paper towels or newspaper.  This will not only help the boot to retain its shape but will also help to remove any excess water.  Whilst leaving your boots to dry which should be done naturally you should never put them in a place where they are directly in sunlight or close to a heat source (radiator or fire).

Step 5 - Once your Ugg®h boots have dried out completely you now take either a suede brush or a towel that is lint free and use this to restore the nap on the outside of the boot.  If you want to deodorize the inside of your boot take 2 tsp of baking powder and 2 tspn of corn flour and sprinkle inside the boot.  Shake the boots around then let them stand over night before you shake out any excess.
