Abstract

A cross-country ski binding is provided which includes a boot sole holding member engageable with a boot sole extension to hold the same in position on a ski. Guide structure is provided at a bearing member fixed to the ski, which cooperates with a corresponding guide part of the holding member to guide the holding member to move in a forward longitudinal direction during its movement into the sole-holding position so that the boot sole is pulled forwardly into the binding as it is clamped into position.
