A sport boot, especially adapted to an in-line roller skate and having an external sole overlaid by an upper including two quarters demarcating an opening which are adapted to be connected to one another by a tightening lace, along a path determined as a function of the position of return elements or guides arranged on both sides of the quarters, wherein each of the return elements or guides is constituted of a base having a flat bottom adapted to be fixed on the edge of one of the quarters of the boot, having a sliding plane, at its substantially horizontal and constant upper portion, beneath which an element is provided for passage of the lace, so as to protect the lace from any external attack.
