Davos or Vibram?
Choose this model for its directly moulded Davos outsole. Choose the 598 Desert Boots with Vibram Sole if you specifically prefer the Vibram outsole. Both use water-repellent black leather and textile with the same under-vamp lining and insole specification.
Fit and sizing
Samelin boots tend to fit slightly large. If you are between two sizes, choose the smaller size. Otherwise, start with your usual EU size and compare your measurements with the Samelin & AIPI Boots Size Guide.
Made in Estonia
Made by Samelin in Estonia. Samelin combat boots meet NATO AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 standards. In 2017, Samelin was named Estonia’s Defense Industry Company of the Year.
Care
Brush away dry dirt, clean the leather and textile gently, and allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat. Treat the leather with a suitable care product to maintain flexibility and water repellency. Read our Leather and Textile Care Guide.
