In a boot comprising an upper portion and a lower portion the upper portion comprises a flexible draw cord extends within channel means provided within and around the upper periphery of the upper portion and exits the channel means through openings in the upper portion. A squeeze-type fastener holds the draw cord at a selected length of the cord adjacent the openings and outside of the upper portion and the draw cord is an endless loop outside of the channel means. A gripping means is affixed to the terminal end of the endless loop of the draw cord. The endless loop termination of the draw cord outside of the boot ensures that the cord is never able to unintentionally retract into channel means 100 and eliminates any need for tying cord ends so that the upper closure is effective for use by a child without assistance from an adult.
