Releasable sealed attachment of a boot (or a glove) to the free end of the corresponding portion (leg, sleeve) of a protective garment (1), wherein the open and flexible free end (5, 6) of the boot (or glove) has a first ring (20) for co-operating with a second ring (30) which is fastened to the open and flexible free end of the appropriate portion (leg, sleeve) of the garment. The assembly further comprises a cylindrical and flexible roll-up skirt (50) which is fastened to the end (51) of the appropriate portion of the garment, and designed to cover tightly the assembly formed by the two rings (20, 30). Said rings (20, 30) are semi-rigid and the first ring (20) connected (23) to the boot (17) (or the glove)has on its inner surface a radial engageable recess (22), while the second ring (30) connected to the leg (13) (or the sleeve) has a slightly greater external diameter than the first ring, and is provided with a radial annular projection (31) for engaging the recess (22) so as to sealingly and releasably join the two semi-rigid rings (20, 30) and thereby join the boot (15, 16) (or the glove) to the leg (13) (or the sleeve) of the garment (1).
