When UGG came out with their platform Fluffita slippers last fall, I bought a pair in white without hesitation. Having worn their popular UGG Fluff Yeah slippers, I was drawn to the UGG Fluffita for its similar platform and fluffy construction. The lack of elastic strap on the Fluffita is a bonus for me, as I prefer something I can quickly slip my foot in and out of throughout the day. When I bought my Fluffita slides, there weren't many online reviews, so I went with my true size 7. After wearing them for a few months and buying more pairs, I'm sharing my thoughts on sizing and quality for the UGG Fluffita in this review.
Fit and Sizing
The UGG Fluffita runs true to size in terms of width.These do not come in half sizes. I bought my regular size 7, and they fit well when I wear them with socks. The ribbon across the toe box allows for minimal adjustability, and is mostly decorative. When tightened all the way, the strap hangs off the side, so I tuck mine into the buckle avoid dragging on the floor and getting dirty. If your feet are narrow and you're going to wear them without socks, then I'd go down one size. If your feet are medium or wide, then your regular size is recommended. Since there is no heel strap to anchor the back of your foot in place, you want a secure fit. Texture notes: I noticed that the white colorways tend to have a thicker, more plush texture on the insole and lining than other colorways such as June Gloom or black. I'm not sure why, but the black ones seem to have a smoother (flatter) lining and insole than other colorways.
Quality and Comfort
The uppers, lining, and insole of the UGG Fuffita are made of plush curly sheepskin. These are sturdy, comfortable shoes with a soft feel on the foot. They are not heavy or clunky like they may appear. As a result, they are easy to walk in, and the 1.75" platform gives a little boost of height that I can appreciate. The outsole is embellished with the UGG logo on repeat, and the ribbon vamp strap is also decorated with the UGG logo. The signature Treadlite sole gives them versatility and traction for wearing both indoors and outdoors. They can transition easily from being winter slippers to spring sandals. When worn with socks, my Fluffita slides keep my feet nice and warm on winter nights. I've been wearing mine on repeat since November. I occasionally clean them (since the white ones show dirt) and brush the insoles to keep them fluffy.
