A ski boot having a rear quarter which is constituted by a first half-quarter and by a second half-quarter which are mutually articulated and oscillate with respect to the shell. The second half-quarter is also articulated to the shell. The half-quarters interact with adjusting members for adjusting their mutual position, so as to achieve a better adaptation and embracing of the rear region of the lower part of the leg while skiing.

Ski boot

A ski boot composed of at least one quarter, articulated to a shell, and having, at the rear region adjacent to its own upper perimetric edge, a seat for a flap. The device includes a eccentric lever which is preferably pivoted transversely to at least one pair of wings which protrude laterally to the quarter. The eccentric lever naturally interacts with the flap and allows it to keep at least two operative positions: an inclined one for skiing, when the lever is closed, and a rearward one for walking or for adapting to the calf of the skier's leg when the lever is open.
