Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From the cult platform mini boots – as worn by Bella Hadid, of course – to the Tasman clogs, it’s officially Ugg season. But, owing to their new high-fashion status, it’s also pretty much impossible to find a pair.
A staple of the style set’s wardrobe, the Noughties fur-lined shoes have gone from scorned to sold out – but if you’ve been lusting over a pair, budget-friendly retailer Ego has served up the perfect dupe.
Characterised by their embroidered Aztec-style braiding, faux-suede outer, faux-fur shearling lining and slip-on fit, Ego’s slippers are a near-identical alternative to the Ugg Tasman shoes (£95, Ugg.com).
Better still, Ego’s pair will set you back just £25 – and there’s still stock in all sizes. Plus, if (like us), Ugg’s sold-out olive pair of Tasmans (£95, Office.co.uk) have been top of the wish list, Ego has you covered on that front, too, with a strikingly similar design.
Whether you’re embracing the Noughties-revival or want a pair to take you from the sofa to the shop, here’s your lowdown on Ego’s take on the revered Ugg Tasman shoes.

Ego catch-up Aztec detail faux-fur lining flat slipper in chestnut brown faux suede: £25, Ego.co.uk
Distinguished by the same embroidered braid and easy-to-wear slip-on silhouette, Ego’s bargain pair are lined with warming faux-fur shearling. Complete with a subtly chunky sole, the slippers come in a classic Ugg-inspired chestnut brown colourway or sleek olive-green finish (£25, Ego.co.uk).
While Ugg’s sold-out Tasmans cost £95, Ego’s pair will set you back just £25, saving you more than 70 per cent. A great pair to fill the void while we wait for Ugg’s OG slip-ons to come back in stock, Ego’s slippers are still available in sizes three to eight.
