Abstract

Comfort sock designed to be arranged inside the shell of a sports boot, such as a ski boot. The sock (1) incorporates a one-piece structure comprising a foot covering (6) with a vamp (7) and an upper (8), a reinforcement (13), and at least one comfort support liner (11) independent of the covering (6) and connected to the reinforcement (13) of pivoting-sliding connections (16). This support liner (11) is arranged opposite an elastic area (9) of the foot covering (6), against which it comes into close contact at the time of closure of the shell of the boot in which the sock (1) is positioned.
