Samelin 791 Tarkovsky Boots – Inspired by Cinema, Built for Reality

1️⃣ A Tribute to Andrei Tarkovsky

The 791s aren’t just boots — they’re a nod to Andrei Tarkovsky’s vision of endurance and authenticity.
Their minimalism reflects the raw, utilitarian aesthetic of Stalker — functional, beautiful, and unpretentious.


2️⃣ Simplicity is Strength

Made from 100% genuine water-repellent leather, the Tarkovsky boots embody the essence of timeless design.
Their unlined construction lets the leather breathe, adjusting naturally to your foot and environment.


3️⃣ Military Precision, Artistic Soul

Built by Samelin, a NATO-certified manufacturer, the Tarkovsky boots fuse military toughness with artistic character.
They’re not fashion-forward — they’re forward-proof.


4️⃣ Made in Estonia with Care

Each pair is handmade in Estonia, a testament to local craftsmanship and decades of bootmaking expertise.
Durable enough for daily wear, refined enough for life’s quieter moments.
