UGG Classic boots are sheepskin pull-ons that come in several heights, from the ankle-high Ultra Mini to taller styles, plus platform versions with a raised sole. Pick the height first, then check the style name in the listing. Standard suede Classics are not waterproof.
Heights, from ankle to calf
Wikipedia notes that sheepskin boots range from just above the ankle to above the knee. In the Classic range, the Ultra Mini sits about 3.5 to 3.75 inches tall, just over the ankle bone, and the Mini rises to roughly 5 to 5.5 inches, onto the lower calf. A retailer guide stresses they are not the same boot at two heights: the Ultra Mini has an angled topline, while the Mini is cut straight across. The Mini or Ultra Mini page goes through the difference.

Flat sole or platform
The platform versions add a raised EVA-based sole. A retailer guide says the Ultra Mini Platform flexes more at the forefoot than the Tazz slip-on but is stiffer than a flat-soled Mini. If you plan to walk a lot, a flat sole is the easier choice. The platform suits shoppers who want extra height and are happy with a heavier boot.
How to size UGG Classic boots
UGG labels use US sizes, and most of the range comes in whole sizes only. For Classic boots, one retailer guide says to round a half size down, because the lining compresses and the boot feels snug for the first two or three wears. Wide feet or high arches may do better at their true size. Sizing up too far can leave the suede sagging around the ankle, which cannot be undone.
For the full set of styles, see the UGG Black Friday hub.

Frequently asked questions
Are UGG Classic boots waterproof?
Standard suede Classic boots are not waterproof. One retailer guide says only the Weather Hybrid versions are seam-sealed and waterproof, so look for that name in the title.
Do UGG Classic boots stretch?
Sheepskin lining compresses over the first few wears and twin-faced sheepskin softens over several weeks. Retailer guides advise starting with a snug fit rather than sizing up.
