Abstract
A rear-entry ski boot having a lower shell above which an upper is mounted which includes a rear spoiler which is pivotally mounted on the lower shell to facilitate the insertion and removal of the skier's foot. The boot additionally includes a removable heel portion affixed in place by a connection on the extreme rear end of the sole of the boot. The lower shell of the boot is open rearwardly, i.e., the two sidewalls are not joined at the rear of the sole of the boot and the releasable heel portion extends upwardly by an upper curved part which acts as a seal with the concave side facing forwardly and the upper curved part to be applied on the rear opening of the lower shell that is bounded by the upper edges of its sidewalls by overlapping the skier's heel rearwardly and by providing continuity in the lower shell to the rear.
