A cross-country ski binding for use with a ski boot having a front extension portion on its sole, with the front end portion providing a hooking area on its top surface, has a double-armed retaining lever whose arm which faces towards the rear of the binding forms a hook for engaging behind the hooking area on the extension portion of the boot. The second arm of the retaining lever can be secured in the closed position of the binding by a locking lever pivotally mounted at the front end of the binding. The locking lever is spring-loaded towards the position of locking the retaining lever in the closed condition of the binding. The binding also has a release button which is disposed pivotally coaxially with respect to the retaining lever and which is limitedly pivotable relative to the retaining lever, against the force of a retaining spring, thereby to displace the locking lever into a position for releasing the retaining lever. The retaining lever also has an abutment which is engaged by the first extension portion of the boot upon insertion thereof into the binding to pivot the retaining lever into the binding-closing position. |
