I'm a Fashion Editor—These Are the Low-Key Uggs I'll Be Wearing With Leggings All Winter Long
I just bought my first pair of Uggs.
I'm a 22-year-old fashion editor, and I've never owned a pair of Uggs—until today. Don't get me wrong. I've always admired the celebs and It girls in their shearling-lined booties, but I was never an Ugg girlie. Maybe the FOMO finally got to me, or perhaps it's the freezing NYC winter that looms ahead, but I've purchased my first pair of Uggs.
It wasn't an easy decision. There are an overwhelming number of cute styles to choose from. I love the elegance of the Elea Suede Slippers($125), but the Bea Genuine Shearling Lined Platform Mary Janes ($125) have the support of IG It girls. I gave thought to the Classic Ultra Mini Platform Boots ($170) and all their styling possibilities. There was a lot to consider. That's when I turned to the Nordstrom reviews.
Below are the best Uggs for fall and winter 2025, plus some cozy styling inspo. (Hint: I'm loving the legging-and-Ugg combo.) Keep scrolling to see which classic Uggs made the cut and shop chic contenders.

I decided on the Classic Mini II Genuine Shearling Lined Boots ($170).
This is the review that sold me: "The mini size is great and much more versatile than the OG size. These are super lightweight and keep my feet comfortable and warm on these cold winter days, perfect for indoor wear, but wear them cautiously outside as they aren’t waterproof (suede)." — Nordstrom reviewer
Get the look: Black Uggs + Black leggings + Brown cardigan + Trench coat
"I love this boot. It keeps my feet warm. I have 7.5 size feet with a wide front and size 8 fits perfectly. I bought the black and the chestnut colors. I love them and always get compliments wearing it." — Nordstrom reviewer
"Love the look with with wide leg jeans or even wide leg comfy pants/sweats and chunky socks! Can be dressed up or dressed down. I was afraid they wouldn't stay on well, but so far that has not been an issue." — Nordstrom reviewer
Get the look: Chestnut Ugg boots + Black leggings + Tie-wast brown sweater
"They are so cute and fluffy! Sizing up is a plus to get that extra plush feeling at the back of your heel." — Nordstrom reviewer
"This is the shoe I was looking for when boots are not quite yet called for. And talk about warm!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"These fit a little snug as most Uggs do until they have been worn, but I seriously love these. So cozy for fall!" — Nordstrom reviewer
Get the look: Gray Uggs + Heather-gray leggings + White-and-gray sweater + White puffer jacket
"Oh I LOVE these slippers...I had them already in the tan color and wanted them in black...I usually wear a 81/2 or 9 and found their 9's are too large...so I get the 8's...they are the best!! I would recommend them to everyone... :)" — Nordstrom reviewer
"I am always without fail a women's size 6. I read the reviews and listened (thank god) and ordered 1 size up - a women's size 7. Let me tell you, they fit like an absolute glove. A 6 would have been way too small. These slippers are so chic, definitely glad I got them when I did. I have a feeling they'll be tough to get soon the closer we get to winter." — Nordstrom reviewer
Get the look: Sand Ugg boots + White leggings + White tank + Cardigan
"I was actually all hesitant about buying these because there is not many pictures with these on anyone's feet but I love Ugg's and decided to get and both colors anyways… OMG these are sooo cute and so comfy I was extremely surprised and the sole is normal they are not platforms at all!! I am really happy with these and I don't normally write reviews at all!" — Nordstrom reviewer
"I am typically a size 7 in shoes and these were so small, I had to order two sizes bigger than usual. They are super comfortable though so once you get the right size it's totally worth it." — Nordstrom reviewer
"I have a feeling these Uggs will be trending this winter. Like the Tasmans, but a bit more flare. So excited to wear these!!!" — Nordstrom reviewer
