摘要

The boot (1), assembled of a sole (2), a shaft (3), and laces (31) used for fastening is designed in order to facilitate a natural way of walking as well as a gradual bending of the leg towards the foot when worn while snow boarding. The laces (17) are guided through a number of loops (15, 16) positioned opposite each other along the shaft (3, 10, 11). The upper loops (16) are covered by flaps (30, 31) sewn (34) to both sides of the shaft (3) and joined at the front with a leaf spring (65), magnets (40, 41, 42, 43), or another suitable elastic device.
