ABSTRACT:
A shoe having a three-quarter or high top upper that is formed at least partially of flexible material has a central rotary closure on an instep cover in a section between the metatarsophalangeal joint area and the ankle joint area, especially near ankle joint area, and is coupled with at least two tightening elements, one tightening element of central rotary closure acting to close the portion of the throat area extending from the closure toward the shoe tip and the other one or two of the tightening elements running upward, especially at an angle (.alpha.) relative to horizontal which is about 10.degree. to 50.degree., especially about 20.degree. to 40.degree., over a guide element on the upper material at or above the central rotary closure, and ending at an attaching point on the instep cover located approximately at at least the same height as the top of this guide element, so that a tightening action can be produced toward the rear in an area between the top and bottom of the heel portion of the upper.
