A band is wound around the outer peripheries of said shells and cuffs; there being a device for tightening said band. There is a forward inclination angle adjusting mechanism for adjusting the angle of forward inclination of the skier's leg including means for adjusting the length of the portion of the band extending across the front cuff and being arranged for moving circumferentially. Said boot may also include a forward inclination pressure adjusting mechanism to adjust the pressure applied to the skier's leg by the boot when the skier moves forwardly. The boot of the present invention may contain either the forward inclination angle adjusting mechanism or the forward inclination pressure adjusting mechanism or both.
