Abstract
The invention is related to alpine ski boot including a rigid shell base overlaid by an upper that has a front portion and a rear portion, the latter being at least partially pivotal with respect to the shell base and including a latching and unlatching device with respect to the shell base, accessible from the exterior of the boot via a control member, the latching position of the latter, corresponding to an initial adjustable reference advance position, from which the upper is capable of an angular clearance along an amplitude predetermined with respect to the shell base. The latching and unlatching device includes a multi-position member capable of being displaced angularly about a longitudinal axis (X-X') of the shell base in a corresponding coaxial housing arranged in the rear portion thereof, and includes a plurality of orifices radially off-centered with respect to its virtual center, such that one of these orifices, chosen as a function of the initial desired advance of the upper, can be brought into a vertical axis to coincide with a latching finger affixed to the upper.
