Rear entry ski boot, said ski boot comprising a rear spoiler linked to the lower shell by means of a pivot located in the heel zone, said rear spoiler having two wings that are each provided with a latching means cooperating with the sides of the upper in the zone corresponding to the journal of the ankle of the skier, when said spoiler is in a position of closure of the upper on the lower part of the leg, wherein said rear spoiler has at least one transverse indent open towards the outside of the boot at the side constituting the rear part of the upper, said indent extending along a plane intersecting a plane passing by the latching means and pivot of said rear spoiler, thus determining, on the one hand, an upper segment journalled on latching means in the zone of the journal of the ankle, and capable of pivoting frontwardly on said means, and on the other hand, a lower segment journalled on pivot of the rear spoiler in the zone of the heel on lower shell, this lower segment constituting, by its upper edge contiguous to the lower edge of the upper segment, a stop abutment stopping all rearward pivoting of said upper segment, as soon as the edges are in contact.
