Abstract

A support adjustment device for ski boots composed of a shell with which at least one quarter is associated. The peculiarity of the device consists of the fact that a shaped body is elastically associated with the quarter and embraces at least one portion of the skier's leg. The device furthermore includes sliders suitable for limiting the backward stroke of the shaped body with respect to the quarter. A safe and constant support of the calf is thus obtained.
