ABSTRACT:
This ski boot of semi-rigid synthetic material has a lower portion (3) comprising the sole and at least one pair of opposite flaps (11, 12, 13, 14) controlled by means of a foot-tightening system. The flaps are covered by a vamp (5) attached or not to the front quarter (4) of the boot shaft. This front quarter (4) is allowed to bend forwards with respect to the vamp (5) and bears against a resilient member (29) mounted on or under the vamp so as to provide an elastic flexion of which the elasticity is adjustable. With this construction the skier's foot is properly held in the boot without impairing the boot tightness.
