Abstract
Closure device for sports footwear, especially for a ski boot. On one edge of a front opening of the boot, a series of levers is provided with their free end having a hook and tightening pin, while a corresponding series of rack elements 10 is provided on the opposing edge of the front opening. A groove 14 in each of the rack elements can receive the hook of a lever. Provided at the free end of at least one rack element 10 is an extendible and retractable additional hooking element 26 which can receive the hooking pin of the opposing closure lever. The extendible and retractable additional hooking element 26, when in its operative state, projects outside the free end of the rack 10 which is therefore extendible.
