Samelin 517 Aviator Boots Red

The Samelin 517 aviator boots in red are a unisex lace-up boot for the city and the countryside: commuting, walks and changeable weather. The colour stands out, and the boot is made to the same NATO quality standard as Samelin's military boots.

The upper is water-repellent genuine leather that keeps out damp and light rain. Inside there is only a leather lining, which breathes naturally, so on cold days add warmer socks. The anatomical insole is antibacterial and washable, and the direct-injected PU outsole gives grip and long wear. A pair weighs about 1.2 kg (size 41).

Each pair is made in Estonia to NATO AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 quality standards.

517 or 516?

If you want a taller shaft, the Samelin 516 high aviator boots in red are the high version in the same colour. Both are in our aviator boots collection.

Brush off dirt after wear and let leather dry slowly at room temperature, away from radiators. Feed leather with a cream or wax now and then, and re-proof suede and nubuck. Find everything you need in our shoe care collection.
