UGG Tasman Kids: Sizing, Fit & Which to Buy (2026)

Quick answer: The kids' UGG Tasman II runs close to true to size — the sheepskin feels snug on day one and packs down with wear, so buy the child's measured size, or go up one if they are mid-growth-spurt. We stock it from toddler 5T through big-kid 6 in seven colors, at $79.95–$109.95 versus $129.95 for the adult Tasman. And yes: if your feet are on the smaller side, the big-kid sizes fit many women — the honest math is below.

Do UGG Tasman kids run big or small?

Close to true to size, with one thing to understand about sheepskin: it compresses. A new Tasman II feels snug because the wool lining is at full loft, and over the first weeks of wear it packs down and the fit relaxes about a half size. So a pair that feels perfectly roomy in the box will likely feel loose in a month. Buy the child's actual measured size for the right long-term fit, and only go up a size if they are between sizes or growing fast — never two sizes, because a heel that lifts out of the slipper defeats the point. Socks are optional in sheepskin; if your kid will wear them with socks daily, factor that in when you measure.

What sizes do kids' Tasmans come in?

UGG splits kids' sizes into two ranges, and our Tasman II stock spans both: toddler sizes (5T through 12T) and youth sizes (13, then 1 through 6). The toddler range covers roughly ages 1–5 and the youth range runs to about age 12 — though feet, not ages, are what matter, so measure. If you are converting from a European size or between US ranges, our kids' shoe size chart covers toddler, youth and infant conversions in one place.

Can women wear the kids' Tasman? (The honest money-saver)

Often, yes. UGG youth sizes run on the same scale as men's, so the common conversion is your US women's size minus 2 ≈ your UGG youth size: a women's 7 is roughly a youth 5, a women's 8 roughly a youth 6. Since our kids' Tasman II tops out at youth 6 and runs $79.95–$109.95 against $129.95 for the women's version, a women's 8 or smaller can frequently wear the kids' pair and save real money on what is functionally the same slipper. Two honest caveats: the kids' last is cut slightly narrower, so wide feet should stay with the adult version, and popular colors sell through the top youth sizes first for exactly this reason. If you are between conversions, call us with your measurement and we will tell you straight which one to buy — even when it is the cheaper one.

Is UGG Tasman 1 or 2 better?

For kids, this question mostly answers itself: the Tasman II is the current model — it is what UGG makes now and what we stock new. The "Tasman 1 vs 2" comparison really only comes up if you are looking at older stock or resale listings of the original. Buying new from an authorized retailer, the Tasman II is the one you will get, with UGG's current fit and outsole. If someone offers you a sharply discounted "new" original-model kids Tasman online, treat it with the same caution as any too-cheap UGG — our guide on how to tell real UGGs from fakes is unfortunately relevant in kids' sizes too, since counterfeiters know parents are price-hunting.

What is the difference between the kids' Tazz and Tasman?

Height and attitude. The Tasman II ($79.95+) is the classic low-profile slipper with the braid trim — flat, stable, easy to slip on, the one that works as an everywhere shoe. The Tazz ($99.95) is the platform version: same suede-and-sheepskin recipe lifted on a chunky sugarcane-EVA platform sole, which is exactly why tweens ask for it by name. Practical parent guidance from the fitting bench: for younger kids, the lower Tasman is the steadier choice; the platform Tazz is best once a kid is old enough to actually want the look. Both are real UGG sheepskin, both run the same sizing. The adult version of this comparison — same trade-offs — is in our Tasman vs Tazz guide.

Are kids' UGG Tasmans worth the price?

They are the same materials as the adult slipper — real suede, real sheepskin, UGG's outsole — at a meaningfully lower price, so the value question is really about growth. A kid mid-growth-spurt may only get a season from any shoe, and $79.95–$109.95 is real money for a season. What tips the math for most of our customers: sheepskin holds up well enough that Tasmans routinely survive into hand-me-down territory, the flat sole means there is little to wear out, and — covered above — the top youth sizes double as women's sizes, so an outgrown pair often just changes feet. If the budget is tighter, our kids' fit and buying guide covers how to buy growing-room without buying sloppy fit.

Which colors are in stock?

Right now we carry the kids' Tasman II in Chestnut, Pink Bloom, Black, New Navy, Dusted Cocoa, Antilope, and Obsidian — Chestnut is the classic that matches the adult pair, and the seasonal colors are the ones that disappear first once holiday shopping starts. If a size shows sold out in the color your kid wants, call us: (310) 398-7497. Sheepskin season peaks hard from September onward, and kids' sizes go first.
