ABSTRACT:
A ski boot comprises a foot-encasing shell body having front and rear cuffs, each being pivotally engaged on opposite sides to the shell body for relative movement away from each other into boot-open position and toward each other into boot-closed position; there being an inner boot member. A boot tightening element is carried on the rear cuff with a pair of elongated cables extending forwardly along opposite sides of the boot from said element. Each cable in the forward portion thereof being operatively related to a pressing pad overlying the inner boot member in the portion thereof disposed upon the wearer's foot between the ankle and instep. A guide is carried on each side of the shell body for training thereabout of an intermediate portion of the related cable. Each guide is so located that when the boot is in closed position the cable will substantially coincide with a line interconnecting the guide and the proximate pivot pin of the rear cuff and when said boot is in open position the cable will be removed from such interconnecting line.
