Typically it takes about 10 working days for the skins to be tanned and finished ready to be cut into panels for ugg boots.
Step 1. Tanning/ Processing
Scouring (30-45 minutes) - Surfactants are used at 38oC to remove dirt and grease (lanolin) from the wool.
Pickling (16 hours) - Prior to tanning, the skins are pickled in a solution containing acid and salt. The salt is added to
prevent swelling of the skins by the acid.
Tanning (16 hours) - Tanning is generally achieved by using chromium salts which form cross-links with the collagen,
stabilising the skin structure and preventing putrefaction.
Wool Dyeing / Fatliquoring (3-4 hours) - After tanning, the wool may be dyed a variety of colours. After the dye
is exhausted, the pH is lowered to about 4.0 to fix the dyes to the wool, and fatliquor is added to the bath. Fatliquors are
emulsified oils which are used in leather manufacture to lubricate the collagen fibres, allowing them to move freely when the skin is dried, thereby imparting softness to the skin.
Drying (4-24 hours) - Once tanned and wool dyed, the skins are then dried in heated forced-air dryers by "toggling" the skins
to a frame.
Drycleaning (4-24 hours) - The dried skins are "drycleaned" in either white spirit (a high-boiling petroleum fraction) or
perchloroethylene. The drycleaning removes the natural fat and grease present within the skins.
Pelt Dyeing / Syntanning - Once the pelt grease is removed, the skins are returned to the paddle for pelt dyeing. This step
is performed at low temperature (less than 30oC) in order to minimise staining of the wool by the pelt dye. After pelt
dyeing, the skins are "syntanned" using synthetic tanning agents in order to give the pelts added fullness and firmness. The skins are then redried.
Step 2. Finishing
Once all the tanning and processing steps have been completed, the skins are ready for final finishing prior to being used in
ugg boot manufacture.
Staking - After "conditioning" the skins to approximately 20% moisture content, the skins are staked in a staking machine.
This softens and stretches the skin pelt, and puts a "nap" on the pelt surface.
Combing / Ironing / Clipping - The wool is combed in a combing machine to remove tangles and any burrs or grass seeds present
in the wool. An iron (a hot, 150oC revolving cylinder) straightens the wool, removing the natural wool crimp.Finally, a cylinder clipping machine is used to clip the wool pile to the desired length, usually about 12-15 mm.
Step 3. Manufacturing
Panels are cut from the skins using a "clicking press". Once cut, the panels are sewn together using industrial sewing machines, then the sole is glued to the boot. Once this is done, the boots are ready for sale!

@Thepurplefairie people still dont get it. The sheep were killed already. Then they used the excess hide for the boots. If they killed sheep just for boots, then they would have some serious problems
