Abstract
A snow shoe (1) has a peripheral frame (2) which defines an interior zone or screen (8). A retention device (3) retains a shoe (4) of a user on the snow shoe. The retention device includes a pivoting plate (7) which is articulated on the screen around a transverse pivoting axle (9), a front strap (10), arranged on the pivoting plate, and a positioning and a control mechanism which permits modification of the longitudinal position of the user's shoe. Specifically, the retention device permits positioning of the front or rear end of the shoe relative to the pivoting axle (7), or of the pivoting axle relative to the screen (8).
