You thought the fashion world was done with ballet sneakers? Think again! These trendy shoes just got a chilly-weather makeover. Introducing the UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers, the cozy winter slipper meets sturdy sole meets delicate pointe shoe in the brand's signature colorways and raw suede edges. In other words... some people love it, and others hate it.
This UGG ballet sneaker has truly divided the E! shopping team, with various team members swearing they're ugly and others who are absolutely obsessed with them. I'm in the latter camp. Let's face it, we don't usually go to UGG for their trendy pieces (although some other flats in their collection might be changing that), we turn to them time and time again for the cozy & casual look, and that's exactly what this shoe provides.
- The UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers come in four colorways: the brand's signature chestnut/sand, the classic neutral black, a subtle pop of blue, and a fiery pepper red.
- These ballet sneakers retail for $145, but the nearly sold-out red pepper shade is on sale for 37% off at Nordstrom Rack.
- They feature a suede upper exterior, a natural sheepskin-lined interior, and lace-up ties that wrap around the ankle.

I got the UGG ballet sneakers in the brand's signature chestnut/sand colorway a month ago... and love them. They're so comfortable and so easy to style. I usually pair them with jeans and a casual top or sweater. They're cute in an "ugly" way. They can be worn with or without socks. I'd recommend them with socks if you're walking a lot, and I even prefer the look of them with thick socks. But wearing them with bare feet is also an easy vibe.
When it comes to sizing, I'm usually between sizes 8.5 and 9. The smaller size is for flats, heels, and everything I'd prefer to wear without socks. 9 is reserved for narrow shoes, boots, and low-profile sneakers that have a slimmer fit. For UGG's ballet sneakers, I went with an 8.5, and they're the tiniest bit too big without socks and absolutely perfect with a thick sock.
If you love the coziness of your favorite UGG slipper with the ease of styling a ballet flat and the sturdiness of a sneaker sole, I'd highly recommend the UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers—especially when certain colors are on sale!
Editor's Pick
UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers
In UGG's classic chestnut/sand colorway, these ballet sneakers feature a soft suede upper, lace-up ties that wrap around the ankle, and an ultra-plush natural sheepskin lining.
UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers (Black)
Prefer a color that goes with everything in your closet? This black colorway is the perfect neutral, with the same features as the classic shade, but with more subtle raw edges on the suede upper.
UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers (High-Voltage Blue)
Chic, while still a colorful neutral, this high-voltage blue colorway of UGG's ballet sneaker is to die for (in this shopping writer's opinion, at least).
UGG Quill Ballet Sneakers (Red Pepper)
If you want a fiery pop of color, this (nearly sold-out) red pepper colorway of the UGG ballet sneaker is a gorgeous, cool-toned red you won't find anywhere else.
