Definitions

  • This invention relates to a ski boot structure with constant length sole.
  • ski boots are already available commercially which have a sole of constant length, irrespective of the boot size.
  • This embodiment has the advantage that the bindings for the boots can be arranged at preset fixed distances, thus facilitating assembly of the bindings to a ski.
  • the one illustrated in Swiss Patent No. 629,942 which has a sole of constant length as the size varies, which sole is always positioned centrally to the boot bottom, so that the front portion or toe end and rear portion or heel end of the boot bulge out from the constant length sole by a substantially equal extent.
  • This embodiment has, as mentioned, the advantage of permitting the use of a binding with ferrule and heel piece at a preset distance apart, irrespective of size, but has the disadvantage of requiring a binding type specially designed for said boot type.
  • Another serious drawback is that the skier, in securing the boot to the binding, practically obstructs his view of the binding ferrule with the boot toe portion, thereby the fastening operation may become difficult since no reference can be seen by the user, the ferrule being located under the bulging front portion of the boot.
  • -It is an object of this invention to obviate such prior disadvantages by providing a ski boot structure with constant length sole which affords, during application of the boot to a ski binding, an accurate visual reference to greatly facilitate the fastening operation.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide a constant length sole ski boot which can be applied to standard bindings, i.e. requires no specially designed bindings.
  • Still another object of this invention is to provide a ski boot structure which, owing to its peculiar construction, can give full assurance of being reliable and safe to use.
  • a ski boot structure comprising a sole of constant length irrespective of the boot size, characterized in that, for any boot size, the relative positions of the toe portion of the sole and toe portion of the boot remain unaltered.
  • a ski boot structure according to the invention comprises a sole, indicated by the reference numeral 1, which has a constant length irrespective of the boot size.
  • the peculiar aspect of the invention is that the toe portion of the sole, indicated at 1a, retains for any size the same relative position to the toe portion 2a of the boot shell 2, the boot being of any types, i.e. a rear entrance boot or possibly a front entrance boot.
  • the heel 3 of the shell will bulge out by a greater or lesser extent, according to the boot size, with respect to the heel portion 1b of the sole.
  • the invention achieves its objects, and in particular, it should be pointed out that the provision of a constant length sole boot, wherein the sole always has its toe portion positioned in a uniform manner relatively to the boot toe portion, and in a substantially similar manner to traditional boots, affords the possibility of using standard type bindings while always keeping in full view the binding ferrule 5 during fastening the boot to the binding.
  • any suitable dimensions, contingent shapes or materials may be used to meet individual requirements, providing that said materials are compatible with the specific application.
