Product description
The 517 is made in Estonia, in the same factory as the famous Norwegian M77 combat boot.
Built by combat boot specialists
This manufacturer has been building boots for more than 75 years. The brand's combat boots are worn by NATO armies, including those of Germany, Norway, Estonia and Finland, and in 2017 the company was named Defence Industry Company of the Year in Estonia.
According to the manufacturer, the 517 lasts longer and is of better quality than comparable, more expensive designer boots. That means plenty of boot for your money.

The water-repellent leather makes the 517 suitable for the city and the forest, in any weather. At 1.2 kg (size 41), you can wear it all day.
