UGG launches a warm, lightweight boot to replace the lined boot this winter

Winter is back, and so is our desire for warmth, both on the street and in the office. And yet, the lined boot is no longer synonymous with a massive silhouette and an all-day outfit. According to Grazia, a new UGG is changing the game this season, with more controlled volumes and a more contemporary line.

Why the UGG silhouette is changing this winter

The brand focuses on lightness without sacrificing warmth or a cocooning feel. This puts an end to the idea that lined boots impose a heavy style, incompatible with our fast-paced lifestyles. Grazia highlights a model that can be worn from morning to night, without false notes or visual fatigue.

On the technical side, UGG retains a wool lining and a soft, comfortable upper for everyday wear. In addition, a lightweight sole absorbs shocks in town and supports long walks. Comfort remains intact, but the line has gained in finesse, refining the silhouette in most looks.

Controlled heat without the moonboot effect

The heart of its success lies in the balance between insulation and mobility, two often conflicting criteria. In contrast, the 2024 version of the lined boot focuses on targeted insulation, concentrated where the foot needs it most. The foot stays warm, while the volume is lightened, for a cleaner, much more supple feel.

“Warm inside, light outside: the winning balance.”

Designers speak of a versatile rendering, capable of accompanying many outfits. As a result, you can switch from the street to the office without changing pairs or losing style. It’s all part of a more fluid approach to dress codes, suited to hybrid lives and tight agendas.

What Grazia has to say about the new UGG star

The fashion media emphasize a lower, more modern shape, designed to slim the leg. Also, the shortened upper facilitates clean hems and emphasizes the ankle without compressing the look. This model targets contemporary looks, from straight jeans to casual tailoring, with a real concern for balance.

• Comfortable wool lining, designed for prolonged urban use.
• Lightweight, shock-absorbing sole for everyday use.
• A lower upper that frees the ankle and visually lengthens the leg.
• Reduced weight for a more natural stride and less fatigue.
• Easy care, with gentle brushing and dedicated nubuck products.

Compared to the brand’s icons, the silhouette is more agile without losing its soul. The cocoon feel is retained, but the hold of a high-cut lined boot is avoided, which can sometimes suffocate the outfit. The result appeals to minimalist profiles as well as fans of comfort, who are often in search of a sensible purchase.

In practical terms, they can be cared for by gently brushing them with a suitable product to preserve the material. What’s more, a true-to-size fit reduces hesitation and unnecessary returns. If you’re in-between sizes, you may want to try them on in-store, as the way they feel on your feet is a key factor.

How to adopt it on a daily basis

With cropped jeans and a straight coat, the look remains crisp and dynamic. In this way, the lined boot blends into an urban outfit without overloading, instantly modernizing the style. In short, you get a reliable base for meetings, outings and commutes.

UGG – ballerina Zora (Shoe) plays the card of supple comfort with a streamlined look. Also, its simple line slips on with ribbed socks and flowing pants, for light journeys.

For the weekend, try a chunky knit sweater and midi skirt – the duo works well. Then add a dense scarf to balance the visual bottom and amplify the perceived warmth. The warmth-mobility duo stays put, even on long, cold days.

Cool trends 2024-2025: lightness and function

The season confirms a shift towards more mobile, slimmer pieces. As a result, brands are focusing on smaller volumes and softer, city-appropriate materials. Comfort becomes a style criterion in its own right, validated by the silhouettes seen in street style.

Winter fashion is all about longevity and the right gesture, starting with maintenance. As a result, thinner lined boots are better suited to mixed wardrobes, from casual to office. The cost per wear decreases when the pair is used five days a week, not just on weekends.

From now on, we think of winter footwear as a system, rather than an isolated piece. So we alternate between lined mules, warm sneakers and lined boots, depending on the weather and the activity we’re planning. The new UGG follows this clear logic, combining real warmth with a silhouette designed for movement.
