The device comprises a control button turnably mounted on the boot and having an axle offset with respect to its rotation axis, a toothed pinion turnably mounted on the offset axle, and a toothed ring coaxial with the control button and having one tooth more than the pinion. The pinion turns inside the ring. The braces cooperate with winding grooves via anchoring devices carried by the pinion and ring, respectively.
