Abstract
In a ski boot designed to be put on from the rear, the foot-retaining system, located within a rigid shell, on a level with the metatarsus, comprises securing means consisting of two straps. One end of each strap is secured to the shell in the vicinity of the sole of the boot. The foot-retaining system is also provided with an adjustable tension device consisting of a bolt accessible from outside the boot, and nuts. A boot according to the present invention assures satisfactory foot retention in the metatarsal area, distributes the necessary pressure over all or part of the metatarsus, and allows the skier to adjust the loads which he applies.
