Abstract
A shell with a flap for covering first and second portions of a ski boot is disclosed herein. Two sets of mating fasteners are attached to the flap and shell, respectively. The first mating pair prevents the flap from displacing from the second portion of the ski boot when fastened, causing the flap to fully cover the second portion. The second mating pair causes the flap to partially cover the second portion of the ski boot, leaving a section exposed for access by a user. The shell also includes two straps and a hoop. The first strap embraces a bottom portion of the ski boot while the second strap is inserted through the hoop and embraces a heel portion of the ski boot.
