Abstract: This invention relates to sports footwear, in particular a ski or snowboard shoe or boot, including a shell provided at the top with a longitudinal opening, a flap or tongue extending longitudinally along the shell and connectable near the region of the tip. The flap or tongue is capable of covering the opening and is removably connectable to the shell to define a first configuration of the sports footwear, in which the flap or tongue is connected to the shell in order to limit or prevent, during use, the oscillation movement of the user's leg in relation to the foot, and a second configuration, in which the flap or tongue is removed from the shell to allow, during use, the free oscillation movement of the user's leg in relation to the foot.

Abstract: A sport footwear includes at least an upper part configured to act as an upper cuff and a lower part acting as a lower shell. The upper part has a pair of opposite and distanced lateral edges. At least one terminal closing mechanism is provided on the lateral edges and at least one other closing mechanism, positioned adjacent to the terminal closing mechanism, which extend frontally astride the lateral edges. The sport footwear includes a single command mechanism configured to drive both of the closing mechanisms at the same time. The command mechanism includes at least one main lever pivoted on a first of the lateral edges. Moreover, the closing mechanisms are each provided with a respective drive end connected to the main lever, near the first of the lateral edges, and with an opposite anchoring end connected to a second of the lateral edges.

Abstract: A sports shoe comprising a lower part which contains the user's foot, an upper part pivoted on the lower part to contain the ankle joint, and a clamping device that selectively clamps the upper part with respect to the lower part. The clamping device comprises a command mechanism mounted at least partly outside on the upper part, and at least a lever element pivoted on the lower part and selectively moved by the command mechanism between a first clamped position, in which the lever element cooperates with the upper part, in order to keep the upper part in a determinate clamped position with respect to the lower part, and a second released position, in which the lever element allows the upper part to oscillate freely with respect to the lower part.
