Abstract
A footgear, particularly usable for skiing, includes a shell which has a recess at the upper metatarsal region and with which at least one quarter is associated. One or more flaps are removably associable with the quarter and/or with the shell through connection members. The footgear thus obtained allows, by virtue of the interchangeability of the flaps, to replace them in case of breakage or wear, to vary the shape and color of the flaps and to recycle them once they have been changed.
