Abstract

The device comprises hollow frusto-conical elements adapted for enveloping a ski boot inner shoe and/or in combination also a ski boot shell. The frusto-conical elements are adapted to be pulled toward the rear portion of a boot. To this end, each frusto-conical element is associated with a small adjustable length cable by means of devices positionable externally on a bootshell, which devices are adapted to place the small cables themselves under tension.
