Hey everyone

I'm wondering, has anyone ever tried to wash Uggs on gentle? A recent rain basically ruined my Uggs with watermarks. And I'm thinking about trying to wash them in the washing machine. Because if they really get ruined, it won't make TOO much of a difference, since they look pretty terrible right now with the toe area really dark.

They are short & gray.

I have the Ugg Care Kit but it doesn't help.

Anyone ever tried this?
i did this with an old pair of cream uggs and they got somewhat clean, but you can't do it many times or you'll melt whatever glue and shenanigans are keeping the Ugg together...
 
i have a pair of uggs from 1986...(i worked in a surf-shop in high school)

i haven't worn them in probably 5 years....

but i wore them constantly for about 15 years...and every 6 months to 1 year i would wash them in the machine....

they were fine!

the older uggs were much more durable than the current ones, but as long as they don't have color (washed my daughter's lavender ones..and the color faded) they should be fine

i'd be hesitant washing darker colors
 
it is PERFECTLY FINE to wash ur uggs in the machine. but just do not dry them in the dryer. i have chocolate ones and it made my washing mashine allllll muddy looking.and they r still wet. it can taake 3-9 days for them to fully dry. but its usually 3 -5 for short ugs and 5-9 for the long ones:nuts:
 
sorry, i thought i'd revive this thread because i don't wanna make a new thread on virtually the same topic.

i just did this with my sand colored uggs. (I got a huge stain on them, and i don't have anything to lose because the ugg cleaner didn't take the stain out)

i put them in the washer on the delicate cycle, but i didn't line the washer with towels.

i'm not putting them in the dryer because i'm too scared that they'll be all stiff. right now, they are soaking wet and i'm hoping they'll be dry in a couple of days.
 
I just put my 5 year old Uggs in the washer on Saturday. They were pretty disgusting as I wore them every winter when I was living in Boston. They are about 90% dry at this point. I also bought some new insoles for them. I think they are going to be in great shape for this winter! Not brand new, but definitely looking alot better than they were before. Thanks for the tips ladies!
 
One year old Ugg slippers washed in washing machine. I used half cap of Woolite detergent and set the washing machine on the hand wash cycle. I then allowed the Uggs to air dry. My Uggs did not fade, did not lose shape, did not shrink, and are void of water marks. In short they look brand new.
 
My mom just threw my slippers in the washing machine, its a last resort before we replace them. We have a top-loading machine (in an earlier post someone stated to not use one), so I will let you guys know how they turn out!
