Abstract
A sports boot, especially for cross-country skiing or walking, including an upper, a reinforcement extending at least vertically upwardly on each side of the heel, and a rigid collar encircling at least the ankle, and connected by its sides to the reinforcement, by two anchoring systems located on each corresponding side of the foot, and enabling the rotation of the collar along a substantially transverse axis with respect to the upper of the boot. At least one of the anchoring systems is effective for varying the position of the corresponding side of the collar with respect to the reinforcement, for enabling the inclination of the collar with respect to the median vertical plane of the boot and/or the rotation of the collar around a substantially vertical axis.
