Abstract
Ski boot of the rear entry type, comprising an upper constituted by a forward cuff (4) solid with the shell (2) of the boot and open to the rear, and by a rear hood (9) swingable about two axes (8) of articulation located on either side of the lower part of the shell, these two elements being assembled to one another by a single hook located in the vicinity of the top end of the upper. The rear hood (9) is in two parts, viz., an upper channel-shaped part (9b) to be inserted into the interior of the cuff (4) between the edges (7) of the latter, and a yoke-shaped lower part (9a), covering the lower portion of these edges (7) and fixed for pivoting movement outside the cuff (4) on the two axes (8) of articulation, the join (11) between these two parts straddling, on each side, the corresponding edge of the cuff.
