Abstract
A fastening device 7 for fastening a skier's foot inserted in an outer shell 1 of a ski boot. A lock member 17 having an operation portion 16 and an engagement portion 15 is disposed in one of a clamping-lever 11 or the outer shell 1, and an engagement portion 20 is provided in the other. The engagement portion 15 of the lock member 17 can be resiliently moved by a biasing spring 18 into engagement with the engagement portion 20 to thereby secure and hold the clamping lever 11 at the clamping position thereof. This makes it sure to prevent the clamping lever from releasing its clamping force due to shocks given when the skier skis in a heavily bumpy slope.
