Description

Damn, if you are here, you are probably braver than us or most of our customers as you are considering wearing white boots. 517 aka Aviator Boots, are no-nonsense unisex ankle boots made of water-repellent leather that are suitable for wearing everywhere, in the city and the woods, and any weather. They are manufactured in Europe according to NATO AQAP 2110 standard by the same factory making one of the most legendary military boots, M77s. The same manufacturer has also worked with well-known brands, including Dr. Martens and Rossignol. So we assure you they last longer and are of better quality than similar, more expensive “fashion boots” in your local shoestores. As Aviators have no lining besides genuine leather, we recommend wearing warmer socks in freezing weather.

Insole: Anatomical, antibacterial and washable
Weight: 1,2 kg (size 41)
Manufacturer Standards: NATO AQAP 2110, ISO 9001

Size guide

Find your size

Stand on a sheet of paper and measure from your heel to your longest toe. Use the longer foot.

All our shoes use EU sizes. Brands differ slightly, so check the fit notes for your model as well.

How to measure

Stand on a sheet of paper in the socks you plan to wear, mark your heel and longest toe, and measure the distance in centimetres. Measure both feet and use the longer one.

Fit notes by model

  • Samelin 553P and 5531 hiking boots run large. We recommend one size down from your usual size.
  • Samelin 598 desert boots run slightly large. Sizing down often gives a better fit.
  • Nesna Lobben and Polar Lobben felt boots: buy up to 2 sizes bigger than your normal shoes, especially if you wear thick wool socks.
  • Natural felt slippers mould to your feet and may stretch slightly over time, so choose a snug fit.

Still unsure?

Email info@buzzastore.eu with your foot length and the model you like, and we'll recommend a size. If the size isn't right, you can return unworn shoes within 30 days.
