517 aka Aviator Boots, are no-nonsense unisex ankle boots made of water-repellent leather that are suitable for wearing everywhere, in the city and the woods, and in any weather. They are manufactured in Europe according to NATO AQAP 2110 standard by the same factory making one of the most legendary military boots, M77s. The same manufacturer has also worked with well-known brands, including Dr. Martens and Rossignol. So we assure you they last longer and are of better quality than similar, more expensive “fashion boots” in your local shoestores. As Aviators have no lining besides genuine leather, we recommend wearing warmer socks in freezing weather. Aviators are the go-to boots of Annamari, one of the founders of whatshoes. Aviators will be shipped to you directly from the factory.
