A ski binding comprises a sole-plate incorporating a spring-winder safety release mechanism releasably holding the plate on a ski by means of a flexible cable. A ski boot has a recessed housing defined by a peripheral wall fitting over the sole-plate. The boot sole and sole plate are locked together as a unit by locking means, such as pivoted levers or sliding bolts in the periphery of the plate engaging in corresponding recesses in the peripheral wall of the boot sole. These recesses may contain a compressible material preventing the recesses from being filled with snow or mud when the user walks. A control member is provided for voluntarily unlocking the boot from the soleplate, independently of the safety release mechanism.
