ABSTRACT:
This ski boot comprises a boot shell having a front gaiter and a rear gaiter associated therewith, as well as a lever element which is pivoted at one end to either of said gaiters, preferably the rear gaiter, for rotation about the pivot axis. Journalled to a middle portion of the lever element is an adjustment assembly for adjusting the working length of a pair of cables which are attached with the other ends thereof to the other gaiter, e.g. the front gaiter, at a point away from the pivot axis. The lever element may be moved to an open position, whereat said adjustment assembly is made accessible for operation and the working length of the cables can be adjusted without pulling them, and to a closed position, whereat the cables tighten the gaiters against each other, and the adjustment assembly cannot be reached from the outside.
