ABSTRACT:
Means for adjusting the freedom of movement between the instep shield (2) and the tip (1') of a shell (1) for skiing boots having a shell (1) which accommodates the foot and is covered on top by such shield (2). The shield is movable in relation to the shell (1) in the direction of walking and at its front rim (21) is supported on a resilient cushion (6) e.g. of rubber fitted to the boot tip (1'), following the arcuate shape thereof. In the transverse central region of the cushion (6) a slider (11), taking the form of a double-armed toggle lever and which is adjustable in the walking direction, is provided. It limits the adjustment range of the shield (2) and comprises a ratchet device which, biased by a spring engages into a matching ratchet formation of a guide in any selected position.
