In a combination of a cross-country ski binding and a complementary cross-country ski boot, the boot comprises engagement elements in the front part of its sole which are complementary to and insertable into engagement elements of the binding to form a joint-like connection. The engagement elements of the sole comprise a joint axle oriented transversely to the long direction of the ski and substantially parallel to the undersurface of the boot. The complementary engagement elements of the binding comprise a retaining hook with a U-shaped stirrup piece that forms a hinge joint with the joint axle by enclosing it from behind and which can be moved out of a closed position into a boot-release position and conversely. The joint-like connection between joint axle and retaining hook or associated stirrup piece is so arranged that the undersurface of the boot is held against the upper surface of the ski body in the ball region of the boot. In addition, there is provided an resiliently deformable element or flexor that acts between the undersurface of the boot and the upper surface of the ski body so that the boot is resiliently supported against the upper surface of the ski body in the region between the jointlike connection and the front or toe end of the binding.
