Buying youth sized Uggs for Adult

Is this true, you can do this?

Ive heard that since Im a size 7 in womens that I can feasibly wear a 5 in youth uggs? Anyone know? Ive read the general rule of thumb is minus 2 from your adult size is your youth size.

Yep!

Although with Uggs it can be iffy for two reasons - some styles run smaller than others, so for a size 7 womens, you MIGHT need a size 6 kids.

Also, if you are getting one of the taller shaft ones, the kids sizes are more narrow in the calf and I believe a tad shorter.

I was thinking of just the classic short, do you know if those run the same?

thanks! Im not worried about the shortness, as Im only 4'11" so Im thinking it wont make a difference, and may be even better Chat Icon

The classics tend to run big (a lot of people I know get one size down from their regular size in the classics). So I think a size 5 should be good (because a 4 would be cutting it close I think).

I'm also a size 7 in normal shoes but a size 6 in adult Uggs (I have Sunburst Tall)... Does that still mean I'd be a kids 5?

Re: Buying youth sized Uggs for Adult

I had no choice but do it: the smallest adult size was too big for me. I got a size 3 kids, which is supposedly an equivalent of size 5 adult, except it's smaller than adult 5 and actually fits me!

Got for it!Chat Icon
