The Aviator, taller. Same factory that builds the M77 for NATO armies.

Sizing: unsure of your fit? Check our size guide before ordering.

The 516 is our high-cut Aviator — more ankle support, more coverage, same honest construction. Water-repellent leather upper, unisex fit, at home in the city or the woods in any weather.

Made in Estonia to NATO AQAP 2110 and ISO 9001 standards by Samelin, who have also manufactured for Dr. Martens and Rossignol.

One honest note: there's no lining beyond the leather itself. In freezing weather, wear a thicker sock.

Good shoes. The rubber sole is very comfortable in slippery conditions, but because of the softer rubber compound, it does wear out faster. I’m still very satisfied and would recommend choosing your usual size. I first bought one size smaller, and even though there really was more room at the toe, the width of the shoe was not enough and it started squeezing my toes and the ball of my foot from the sides. Better to add an extra insole yourself if needed.

Great ankle support, tough leather, and they break in nicely. If you want boots that look pretty on a shelf, look elsewhere.

I was looking for shoes that would fit a wider foot. Normally, I wear size 39 shoes, but following the guide, I bought size 38 because they have a bit of extra room. I didn't need any break-in period; the shoes were immediately comfortable for my wide feet. They've been my favorite shoes for several years now, though I haven't used them as winter shoes yet. They look really cool on the foot. I recommend giving these shoes a try!

Took some time to wear in (don’t take long walks right away) as they are made of only leather. But once worn in, they’re great.
