The boot includes a boot body having a toe portion, a heel portion and a lower region, and has a length extending in a toe-to-heel direction. A first member is supported by the boot body and is moveable between an extended position and a retracted position. In the extended position, the first member includes a contact portion extending beyond the boot body for releasably engaging a portion of the binding. The length of the boot with the first member in the extended position is greater than the length of the boot with the first member in the retracted position. The first member may extend beyond the toe portion of the boot body in the extended position, or may extend beyond the heel portion. In the extended position, the first member may be engageable with a bail portion of the binding. The boot may also include a second member supported by the boot body and moveable between an extended position and a retracted position such that the second member also includes a contact portion extending beyond the boot body for releasably engaging a portion of the binding in its extended position. The length of the boot with the second member in the extended position is greater than the length of the boot with the second member in the retracted position. The second member may also extend from either the toe portion or the heel portion of the boot body and may be moveable independent of the first member.
