ABSTRACT:
A snowboard boot is formed with an ankle and heel support. The boot includes a sole portion and an upper portion fixed to the sole portion. The ankle and heel support includes a strap member that is formed with first and second lacing loops and an ankle strap portion which extends between the first and second lacing loops. A first support leg extends downward from the first lacing loop and a second support leg extending downward from the second lacing loop. The first and second support legs are fixed to a lower inside portion of the upper portion proximate the sole portion. The ankle strap portion is configured to wrap around the back side of an ankle portion of a foot above a heel portion of the foot and with the first and second lacing loops laced, the ankle and heel support provides firm engagement between the foot and boot.
