Abstract

A ski boot includes a shell base having an overlying upper, the upper including a front portion and a rear portion journalled with respect to the shell base about a transverse axis, so as to enable pivoting of the rear portion of the upper towards the rear at the opening of the boot. The rear portion of the upper is connected to the front portion by tightening and closure elements, whereas the shell base includes two lateral wings extending upwardly, to which a linkage is connected, linking them to the rear portion of the upper where a traction element of the linkage is located.
