UGGs with bows are the Mini Bailey Bow II, a winter boot from UGG that adds a fixed satin bow to the back of the shaft.

The bow stays flat rather than tying, which matters when you’re short on closet space or packing.

The boot uses pretreated 17 mm twinface sheepskin that repels water before you treat it yourself, so you can wear it in light snow without the panic that comes with suede in weather.

The Mini Bailey Bow II in Black

The black boot's fixed satin bow lies flat against the back of its shaft.

Journeys stocks the Mini Bailey Bow II Boot in black, the style that answers this search most directly.

The boot puts a fixed satin bow at the back of the shaft, the detail that sets it apart from the standard Mini.

The bow stays put rather than tying: it sits flat when you pull the boot on and sits flat when you store it, which matters if you’re short on closet space or packing for a trip.

The upper is pretreated 17 mm twinface sheepskin that repels water and resists stains before you ever treat it yourself.

That pretreatment means you can wear the boot in light snow or on wet pavement without the panic that comes with suede in weather.

The 17 mm sheepskin is thick enough to insulate without adding bulk, and the black colourway works as a true neutral.

It closes the gap between winter boot and something you’d wear with a skirt or dark denim when the occasion calls for both warmth and a cleaner line.

Sheepskin Fleece Lining and Insole

Fleece lines the boot from its cuff to the toe and covers the insole.

The 17 mm sheepskin fleece wraps the inside of the Mini Bailey Bow II from cuff to toe, rated for warmth without adding bulk.

The same 17 mm sheepskin lines the insole, so your foot sits directly on fleece rather than a synthetic layer.

Reviewers who bought the black style report wearing them without socks through winter and staying warm. One repeat buyer orders a pair each fall for that reason.

The fleece compresses slightly after the first few wears but holds its loft better than synthetic pile, and the natural fiber wicks moisture instead of trapping it against your skin.

Treadlite Outsole

The Treadlite outsole gives this sheepskin boot a flexible, lightweight base.

The Treadlite by UGG outsole sits beneath the sheepskin upper and gives the Mini Bailey Bow II a lighter sole than what traditional rubber compounds deliver.

The material flexes with your foot rather than fighting it, which matters when you’re walking across a parking lot or standing in line at the coffee shop.

Treadlite adds grip on smooth indoor floors and slightly damp pavement, the surfaces you actually encounter in a boot this casual.

The compound also absorbs some impact when your heel strikes, though these are still fashion boots with a flat profile (not walking shoes with arch support or cushioning through the midsole).

The outsole’s light weight keeps the boot from feeling clunky despite the sheepskin bulk.

You can wear them for a few hours without the fatigue that comes from heavier winter boots, which makes them practical for errands or a short campus day.

What Customers Say

Black boots rest beside a wool coat and folded scarf in a winter entryway.

The product page collects five quick takes from buyers, all of them positive but none detailed enough to walk you through fit or durability:

  • Bought the boots in black and ready for winter
  • Buys a new pair every fall; warm enough to skip socks
  • Well-made and comfortable
  • Daughter loves them, color included
  • "Best boots ever"

These are individual comments rather than a breakdown of performance across sizing, weather conditions, or how the bow holds up after a season of wear.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do UGGs with bows have real sheepskin?

Yes, the Mini Bailey Bow II uses pretreated 17 mm twinface sheepskin for both the upper and the lining.

The sheepskin insulation wraps from cuff to toe and lines the insole directly beneath your foot, rated for winter warmth without synthetic layers.

Can you wear UGGs with bows in the rain?

The Mini Bailey Bow II comes pretreated to repel water and resist stains, so you can wear them in light snow or on wet pavement.

The pretreatment protects the suede before you apply any treatment yourself, though these remain fashion boots rather than weatherproof winter gear.

Are UGGs with bows warm enough for winter?

The 17 mm sheepskin fleece insulates well enough that repeat buyers report wearing them without socks through winter.

One customer orders a new pair every fall for that warmth, and the natural fiber wicks moisture instead of trapping it against your skin.

What is the bow made of on Mini Bailey Bow UGGs?

The bow is made of satin and sits fixed at the back of the shaft rather than tying. It stays flat when you pull the boot on and when you store it, which saves closet space and makes packing easier.

Do the bows on UGG boots come off?

No, the satin bow on the Mini Bailey Bow II is fixed to the back of the boot and does not untie or detach. The bow stays in place as a permanent detail rather than a ribbon you can remove.

What colors do UGGs with bows come in?

Journeys stocks the Mini Bailey Bow II Boot in black, the most versatile colourway that works as a true neutral with both casual and dressed-up outfits. The black upper pairs with dark denim, skirts, and winter layers without clashing.
