jollykay, Order them from here and you will get them half price. Postage to UK £9 and add a bit of import tax on them and they will still be cheaper.

jollykay,
Fernie has 3 fairly decent ski shops, but don't expect fantastic choice.

Fernie isn't exactly a fashionista's paradise and the only ugg boots you're likely to see will be on the feet of some feral Aussie ski bums at a guess. You really wouldn't want to buy them unless you have a particular fetish

jollykay, buy them from M and M Direct here in the UK (go to www.mandmdirect.com and type "ugg" in product search). I buy so much stuff from them as it is cheap cheap cheap. They're a bit limited on sizes at the moment as most have gone, but the Ugg Women's Sundance sheepskin boots are available in sizes 7 and 8 for £89.99. The tall version is available in 3.5 only, for £79.99. Or they've got the leather with sheepskin lining boots (the women's Ugg Dunwich boots) in lots more sizes for £119.99 (RRP is £219.99 on these more posh boots).

If you do buy a pair, make sure you get a sole that is suitable for snow/ice as the normal sole will have you sliding around.
Also waterproof them otherwise the suede will get water damaged and it will help with keeping them clean (or just get a dark colour).
As for buying them in Fernie, only thing I can think is to order them from a us/canadian site and get them delivered to your accommodation.
As for the fact that they're over in the fashion stakes
1: who cares, they are fantastic at keeping you feet warm and dry in very cold conditions.
2: they are the most comfortable thing you can put on your feet after you have taken your ski boots off, just pure heaven.
3: they will come back into fashion one day, I had a pair 15 years ago in NZ, very hardwearing lasts for years, only got rid of them as all the wool had worn away inside,
and yes, I do have a pair in my closet, what sort of fetish should I be on the look out for.
