When you’re out in the elements, your boots shouldn’t let you down. Whether you’re walking through wet forest trails, rocky mountain paths, or muddy autumn roads, your footwear becomes more than a piece of gear — it’s your foundation.

That’s where Samelin comes in. For over 75 years, this Estonian bootmaker has been crafting rugged, military-grade footwear trusted by NATO armies across Europe. From the legendary M77 Combat Boot to today’s new Samelin Hiking Collection, their dedication to durability, comfort, and timeless design hasn’t changed.

Hiking Heritage, Built for Everyday Adventure

The new 550, 5531, and 553P hiking boots are the next evolution of that heritage — engineered for Nordic weather but made for anyone who loves an active lifestyle.

• Waterproof nubuck leather keeps your feet dry in all conditions.
• 4-layer TOPAZ membrane ensures breathability and comfort.
• Vibram dual-layer soles offer traction and endurance across terrains.
• Anatomical, antibacterial insoles provide lasting comfort and hygiene.
• Handmade in Estonia at a NATO AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 certified factory.

Meet the Lineup

550 – Lightweight Versatility

Classic and adaptable, the 550s are ideal for everyday hikes and travel. Waterproof nubuck leather, breathable membrane, and Vibram traction make them reliable in any season.

5531 – All-Weather Endurance

Built for longer treks and mixed terrain, the 5531s feature waterproof nubuck, a 4-layer breathable lining, and a dual-layer Vibram outsole for performance that lasts.

553P – Reinforced for Rough Terrain

All the benefits of the 5531 with a reinforced toe cap for added protection. Designed for rocky routes and challenging environments where resilience matters most.

Design That Lasts — and Ages Beautifully

Unlike synthetic fast-fashion gear, Samelin’s boots are made to be repaired, not replaced. The natural nubuck leather develops a unique patina over time, telling your story with every step. Small-batch production ensures every pair receives the attention of skilled hands.

From Factory Floor to Nordic Forests

Samelin’s artisans in Estonia have spent decades refining the balance between comfort and toughness. Recognized across Europe for exceptional quality, the brand continues to manufacture according to strict military standards — because reliability isn’t negotiable.
