Fit & sizing
Samelin boots tend to fit slightly large. Choose your usual EU size. If you are between two sizes, choose the smaller size.
For measurements and fitting advice, see the Samelin & AIPI Boots Size Guide.
Waterproof construction
The waterproof smooth chrome-leather upper works with a breathable four-layer PTFE membrane made using sock construction. This creates a continuous waterproof lining around the foot while allowing moisture to move away during active use.
Toe protection & outsole
The 734 has thermoplastic reinforcement at the toe and heel plus an additional TPU protector over the toe. Its dual-layer polyurethane and rubber outsole is slip- and oil-resistant, while stainless-steel hooks and eyelets allow the lacing height to be adjusted.
How does model 734 differ from model 736?
Model 734 is based on the Samelin 736 Waterproof Combat Boots but adds an external TPU toe protector. This makes the 734 the more suitable choice when additional protection against scuffs and contact at the toe is desirable.
Break-in
As with many substantial leather boots, the 734 may require a break-in period. Wear them for shorter periods initially and increase the wearing time gradually as the leather adapts to your feet.
Made for military use in Estonia
Samelin manufactures model 734 in Estonia for NATO military units under the NATO AQAP 2110 quality system. Samelin also holds ISO 9001 certification. In 2017, the company was named Estonia’s Defense Industry Company of the Year.
Care
Remove loose dirt with a soft brush or damp cloth and allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat. Remove the insole to improve airflow while drying. Use a care product suitable for waterproof smooth leather, following its instructions to help maintain the leather and weather protection.
