Rapper LEX models three new UGG styles for Fall/Winter 2026 in a Hypebeast Japan editorial: the Classic Micro Distort, Classic Distort Boot and Heritage Utility Grizz. The shoes are listed as available through selected UGG stores and the official online store in Japan, with prices from ¥35,200 to ¥44,000.
Rapper LEX models three new UGG styles in a Hypebeast Japan editorial spotlighting the brand’s Fall/Winter 2026 collection: the Classic Micro Distort, Classic Distort Boot and Heritage Utility Grizz. The report says the shoes are available through UGG’s official online store and selected Japanese stores, with listed prices ranging from ¥35,200 to ¥44,000.
The two Distort styles reinterpret the familiar UGG Classic Boot with altered proportions and stitching. UGG says the designs warp, split and expand elements of the original silhouette while retaining features such as twin seams and the Classic outsole. The Classic Micro Distort is listed at ¥35,200, while the Classic Distort Boot costs ¥44,000; both are offered in Chestnut and Black, according to the report.
The third style, the Heritage Utility Grizz, uses two-tone faux fur and a voluminous shape, paired with functional details. The report describes its ratchet strap as a feature inspired by snowboard boots and says the design builds on Heritage Utility tooling intended to provide cushioning, traction and protection. Its listed price is ¥44,000.
Hypebeast Japan describes the editorial’s concept as “A Familiar Strangeness,” using subtle surreal elements in the setting around LEX. The report also includes an interview with Pierce Lopatic, UGG’s senior director of design for global men’s footwear, about the collection’s design approach. The availability information is specific to Japan and does not establish release dates or stock in other markets.
Three Styles Rework UGG Signatures
The collection matters as a product release because it shows UGG presenting recognizable brand codes in visibly different forms rather than relying only on its established Classic Boot silhouette. The Distort models alter the shape and construction details, while the Grizz pairs plush-looking faux fur with hardware and utility-focused tooling. These are design choices described by the brand, not independent assessments of performance or comfort.
For shoppers, the report supplies practical details: the three model names, prices, color options for the two Distort pairs and selected Japanese retail locations. But availability is not the same as confirmed inventory at every location. The article does not give a stock count, size range or delivery information, so interested buyers may need to check directly with the listed retailers.

How UGG Reworks Its Classic Boot
UGG traces its origins to Southern California in 1978, when it was founded by an Australian surfer. The brand’s classic sheepskin boots are associated with surfers warming their feet after leaving the ocean. That heritage provides the reference point for this collection, according to the source report.
In the interview, Pierce Lopatic said UGG used the Classic Boot’s silhouette, twin seams and outsole as a foundation for the Distort designs. He described the aim as changing an established icon while keeping it recognizable. For the Heritage Utility Grizz, he pointed to the contrast between faux fur and rugged details, including the ratchet strap. These explanations are the designer’s account of the intent; the source does not provide consumer testing or independent product-performance findings.
“The brand’s DNA is a crucial foundation for creating anything new.”

Global Release Details Remain Unlisted
The supplied report gives prices and retail information for Japan but does not confirm whether or when the styles will be sold in other countries. It also does not specify product dimensions, full materials breakdowns, available sizes, production quantities or current stock at each listed store. Although the report calls the collection Fall/Winter 2026, it does not provide separate launch dates for the three styles.
The design and function descriptions largely come from UGG’s designer or the report. No independent testing results are supplied for the footwear’s cushioning, traction, protection or warmth, and the source does not say whether those qualities differ from other UGG models.
Check Japan Retailers for Stock
According to the report, the shoes are currently available through UGG’s official online store, the UGG Tokyo Flagship Store and UGG Ginza Matsuya-dori. The Heritage Utility Grizz is also listed at UGG Osaka; the report does not list the two Distort styles at that location. Buyers should confirm sizes and stock with UGG before visiting, as the article does not provide live inventory information.
The source offers no announced next release milestone or international launch schedule. Any additional availability details would need to come from UGG or its regional retailers.
