Abstract
Improved footwear, such as a ski boot having a substantially rigid shell, a slip joint defined at the instep area between a vamp portion extending upwardly and an upper shell portion extending downwardly with a portion overlying the vamp at the instep area provide boot flexure. A slit in the upper shell portion commences at the joint and extends upwardly. Threaded adjustable fastening means are positioned across the slit so that the amount of boot flexure can be adjusted.
