Samelin 598 Desert Boots 2.0 – When Military Engineering Meets Everyday Functionality

1️⃣ From the Battlefield to the City

The 598 Desert Boots 2.0 take their inspiration from military design — originally made for NATO desert missions and now adapted for everyday explorers.
Built from water-repellent nubuck leather, they’re durable, breathable, and visually timeless.

Their sleek, utilitarian silhouette makes them equally suited for urban wear or rugged outdoor terrain.


2️⃣ Improved Grip, Same Legendary Durability

The “2.0” in the name signifies improvement — better sole adhesion, better shock resistance, and better stability.
The directly molded PU/RU sole gives unmatched traction, even on slippery or uneven ground.

They’re the kind of boots you can wear hard and rely on completely.


3️⃣ Designed for Comfort and Endurance

Inside, the anatomical insole keeps your feet cushioned and supported throughout long days of use.
Its antibacterial and washable nature ensures freshness — an important feature for warm-weather boots.

These are military-grade boots re-engineered for everyday adventurers.


4️⃣ European Craftsmanship, NATO-Grade Quality

Each pair is handmade in Estonia, by the same factory that produces NATO combat boots and works with Dr. Martens and Rossignol.
Samelin follows strict NATO AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 certifications, ensuring that every boot meets elite European manufacturing standards.

When you choose Samelin, you’re choosing boots built to outlast trends — and maybe even generations.
