The boot at a glance
The Samelin 516 High is the tall Aviator boot for anyone who wants more coverage around the ankle and lower leg. That makes it a logical choice if you walk not only on pavements, but also through the garden, the woods or bad weather. The tall shaft still keeps the silhouette slim. In winter you wear warmer socks with it, so it stays your go-to boot all year. The 516 suits men and women and is available in EU sizes 35 to 48.

Product description
Samelin has been making boots in Estonia for more than 75 years. The brand's combat boots are worn by NATO armies, including those of Germany, Norway, Estonia and Finland.
Quality with a proven reputation
In 2017 the company was named Defence Industry Company of the Year in Estonia. According to the manufacturer, the 516 lasts longer and is of better quality than comparable, more expensive designer boots.
Tall, slim and sturdy
The tall shaft gives solid protection while keeping the silhouette slim. At 1.4 kg (size 41) and with its full leather construction, it is a boot for the city, the forest and any weather.
In winter too
In freezing temperatures you wear warmer socks, so the 516 stays your go-to boot all year round.
Brown gives the tall shape a natural, warm look.
The 516 is suitable for men and women and available in EU sizes 35 to 48.
