At Y/Project’s Wednesday show at Paris Men’s Fashion Week, the label rolled out a collaborative collection with Ugg featuring a slouchy, over-the-knee version of the brand’s infamous shearling lined boot. The boots will [reportedly](https://nypost.com/2018/01/17/thigh-high-ugg-boots-now-exist-and-they-cost-over-1k/ "undefined") retail for up anywhere from $270 to $1,380 and will be available in fall 2018. “Putting on Uggs is like putting your foot in a warm pot of butter, and I thought why not elevate that and immerse your full legs,” Y/Project creative director Glenn Martens described the look, according to [_Vogue_](https://www.vogue.com/article/uggs-yproject-collaboration-at-paris-mens-fashion-week-fall-2018 "undefined"). “So we decided to design an Ugg boot that climbs up to the crotch and covers the whole leg.” Of course, the Internet was quick to react to the reveal. “Friends, I regret to inform you that thigh-high Uggs exist now,” wrote Twitter user Kim Bhasin. “I’m sorry that you have to see this.” > [](https://twitter.com/KimBhasin/status/953724430093639681) > [](https://twitter.com/starrKelli1/status/954050813781053440) > [](https://twitter.com/%5FSydney%5FCooper%5F/status/954035267077312513) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5108051/thigh-high-ugg-boots/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5108051/thigh-high-ugg-boots/"},"headline":"The Internet Is Coming to Terms With Thigh-High Ugg Boots","datePublished":"2018-01-18T18:37:46.000Z","dateModified":"2023-12-12T22:48:13.000Z","description":"\"Putting on Uggs is like putting your foot in a warm pot of butter\"","url":"https://time.com/5108051/thigh-high-ugg-boots/","keywords":["Newsfeed","fashion","shoes"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltca23a9b49dec86c2/6988f8a7e76ad27755630a9a/screen-shot-2018-01-18-at-12-01-08-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Megan McCluskey","jobTitle":"Staff Writer","url":"https://time.com/author/megan-mccluskey/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltca23a9b49dec86c2/6988f8a7e76ad27755630a9a/screen-shot-2018-01-18-at-12-01-08-pm.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"Screen Shot 2018-01-18 at 12.01.08 PM","caption":"A model walks the runway during the Y/Project Menswear Fall/Winter 2018-2019 show as part of Paris Fashion Week on January 17, 2018.","creditText":"Victor VIRGILE/Gamma-Rapho via Getty Images","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5108051/thigh-high-ugg-boots/","name":"The Internet Is Coming to Terms With Thigh-High Ugg Boots"}}]}] ```
