And nothing solidifies the platform Ugg being the shoe of the season more than supermodel Gigi Hadid stepping out in a pair. On her way to celebrate the launch of her cashmere label, Guest in Residence, Hadid completed her fall-ready look with a pair of one of Ugg's trendiest boots, the Classic Ultra Mini Platform. This fresh (albeit controversial) take on the supermodel-loved shoe has a two-inch platform, but features a shorter rise around the ankles than the Classic Mini by 1.5 inches. If you were wearing the brand's platform sandals à la Sydney Sweeney in warmer months, there is no better way to make the cold-weather transition.

Combining suede with the brand's UGGplush wool blend, there's a reason why celebrities and supermodels alike break these boots out every time the temperature drops. You can dress them up or, following Gigi's lead, round out the look with fall-ready knitwear like these ultra-plush cashmere joggers. If you want the height with a little more ankle coverage, you can always opt for the Classic Mini Platform, which is available in both Suede and Ultra Matte. Unsurprisingly, these have also gotten the stamp of approval from models when it comes to an off-duty look.

The Classic Ultra Mini Platforms give you Ugg's beloved comfort and quality with a fun take on the classic fall boot. Shop the newest style now or opt for its sister shoe that still speaks to one this year's hottest trends while providing slightly more coverage.
