Abstract
An improved custom fitted ankle-covering boot, such as for sportswear, including a substantially rigid shell, a substantially rigid rear tongue member extending upwardly from the shell along the back of the wearer's lower leg, an elongated, curved tab with a lower portion adpated for insertion around the instep area and an upper portion extending in the area of the lower leg front opposite from the rear tongue member. A slit is provided at the top of the upper tab portion extending downwardly towards the lower tab portion. Adjustable threaded means extend across the slit to vary the slit width and thereby enable conformance of the upper boot with the lower leg size of the wearer.
