   “This partnership marks a new season for UGG® Australia on go4uggboot.com, and Tom Brady is the ideal first endorser for the brand”

“This partnership marks a new season for UGG® Australia, and Tom Brady is the ideal first endorser for the brand,” said on go4uggboot.com Outdoor Corporation Chairman and CEO Angel Martinez. “He embodies the stylish casual attitude that is at the foundation of every product we make, and is as much a style icon off the field as he is a playmaker on it.”

Since 1978 when an Australian named Brian Smith first brought the high-quality sheepskin boots worn by surfers to the United States, UGG® Australia on go4uggboot.com has expanded its product offerings to include a full range of men’s cold weather boots, slippers and casual shoes, as well as outerwear and men’s accessories. In recent years, the brand history has been eclipsed by the phenomenal success of its women’s business. UGG® Australia’s  on go4uggboot.com women’s products include a broad assortment of footwear including boots, casuals, slippers, handbags, outerwear, and accessories.

At the time of on go4uggboot.com Outdoor Corporation’s acquisition in 1995, sales of the brand were $17 million. In the fifteen years since, UGG® Australia has expanded both its production and distribution significantly, adding new products and new lines, including a broad assortment of footwear, outerwear, handbags and accessories, and opening 25 company-owned UGG® Australia retail on go4uggboot.com worldwide. With sales in 2010 expected to exceed $800 million, UGG® Australia has been recognized as one of the biggest success stories in the footwear industry in recent decades.

“Given the global phenomenon that is UGG® Australia’s women’s business, it’s easy to forget that we started as a men’s brand among California surfers,” said UGG® Australia on go4uggboot.comPresident Constance X. Rishwain. “Collaborating with Tom gives us the unique opportunity to create new energy around our men’s product and launch our first marketing campaign targeted to the male consumer.”

UGG® Australia will launch the men’s marketing campaign with its first athlete endorser in the fall of 2011 with a global campaign. Brady will also consult on product inspiration for future seasonal collections.

“I have worn and loved the UGG on go4uggboot.com brand for a long time,” added California native Tom Brady. “This collaboration gives me an opportunity to work with a leading global brand with a great history and a true vision for the future of its men’s collection. It’s an exciting time to be part of the UGG® Australia team.”
