Abstract: A heel securing device, for ski boots of the rear-entry type comprising a front quarter and a rear quarter which are associated with a shell inside which an inner shoe can be removably arranged. The peculiarity of the device resides in that it is constituted by at least one flap which is associated with, or provided at, the shell, the inner shoe or an adapted removable heel element, the other free end embracing the rear region of the heel overlying the perimetric edge of the shell. It is thus possible, once the rear quarter is secured onto the front one, to achieve uniform pressure on the entire heel region without activating adapted and specific means.

Abstract: The adjustable closure device includes a tensioning means, such as a lever, for actuating a cable adapted to tighten the front and rear quarters of the ski boot; the front quarter has a stop element for engaging the front quarter with the shell when the skier extends his/her leg; a release means is provided for releasing the stop element disengaging the front quarter from the shell and thus obtaining a walking position.
