ABSTRACT:
The ankle section of an ice skate, especially an ice hockey skate, should press as little as possible on the ankle of the foot inserted therein, even with tight lacing of the ice skate. For this purpose, the ankle section of the ice skate leg is provided with a recess, and this recess is filled with a pad. The ice skate leg is provided, in the ankle section, with a pivotable leg flap, by means of which the recess and the pad lying therein is coverable from outside. The leg flap is provided with a second lacing region, which cooperates with the other leg lacing. Upon movements of the foot relative to the leg, the pad does not shift relative to the ankle, thus does not rub on the ankle, and accommodate these movements by flexible deformation.
