A removable protective cover for a hockey skate boot, the cover having a hard but flexible protective shell with an open bottom and heel, and heel-cupping sidewall portions that flex apart diagonally to apply the cover to the boot and to grip portions of the boot heel under tension when released. The shell floats above the surface of the boot on spaced pads secured to the underside of the shell, the pads protecting side- foot, ankle, and instep portions of the foot, while still allowing the boot-laces to be adjusted while the protective cover is installed on the boot. The shell is preferably slotted on the instep to improve flexibility. The initial tensioned fit of the cover on the boot frees the user's hands from having to stabilize the cover while adjusting supplemental fasteners such as straps.

Une housse protectrice amovible pour une chaussure à patin de hockey, la housse étant munie d'une enveloppe protectrice dure, mais souple, avec une partie inférieure ouverte et un talon, et des parties latérales à coques talonnières qui s'ouvrent diagonalement pour appliquer la housse sur la chaussure et pour agripper des parties de du talon de la chaussure sous tension lors d'un dégagement. L'enveloppe flotte au-dessus de la surface de la chaussure sur des tampons espacés fixés à la face inférieure de l'enveloppe, les tampons protégeant le côté latéral du pied, la cheville et les parties de cou-de-pied du pied, tout en permettant d'ajuster les lacets de chaussure pendant que la housse protectrice est installée sur la chaussure. De préférence, l'enveloppe est munie de fentes sur le cou-de-pied afin d'améliorer la flexibilité. L'ajustement tendu initial de la housse sur la chaussure libère les mains de l'utilisateur sans avoir à stabiliser la housse tout en ajustant des dispositifs de fixation supplémentaires comme des courroies.
