A protruding part formed on one split end part of a boot is temporarily fixed to a recessed part formed on the other split end part in the state where step-shaped hook portions formed on one-end thereof are engagingly locked to each other, and connected by welding, fusion or adhesion. The protruding part is hooked only in one thickness directional side. An overlapping protruding part formed on the non-hook side (inner side) of the recessed part is connected extending over the inside surface of the protruding part and the inside surface of the split end part continued thereto.

1. A boot comprising:first and second mounting parts formed at two axial ends,a bellows part extending between the first and second mounting parts, anda longitudinally extending open part having first and second split end parts and extending between the two axial ends,the first and second split end parts of the open part being mutually opposed,the first and second split end parts of the open part having a protruding part and a recessed part, respectively, extending between the two axial ends,the protruding part having a step-shaped hook, and the recessed part having a step-shaped hook corresponding in shape to the step-shaped hook of the protruding part so that the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part in an unjoining direction in a hook position after the protruding part is positioned in the recessed part, whereby, after they are hooked to each other, unhooking them in the unjoining direction is avoided,an overlapping extending part protruding from the recessed part so that the overlapping extending part guides the protruding part when the protruding part is inserted into the recessed part,the step-shaped hook of the protruding part being within the recessed part when the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part,wherein, when the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part, the overlapping extending part covers the recessed part and the protruding part,the protruding part and the overlapping extending part being formed only at each inner peripheral side of the first and second split end parts so that, when the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part, the inner peripheral side bulges inwardly, but an outer peripheral side of each of the first and second split end parts does not bulge outwardly,the outer peripheries of the first and second split end parts being arranged at a same level in the hook position,wherein all of the first and second mounting parts, the first and second split end parts, the bellows part and the overlapping extending part are integrally made of a same material. 2. The boot according to claim 1, wherein the outer surface of the first split end part and the outer surface of the second split end part are arranged at a same level without any step or bulging portion on the outer surfaces of the first and second split end parts when the protruding part is positioned in the recessed part. 3. The boot according to claim 1, wherein the overlapping extending part extends over the overlaps with the protruding part and the first split end part when the protruding part is positioned in the recessed part. 4. The boot according to claim 1, wherein an open part is formed by dividing one circumferential part and connected after putting the boot over a member, the open part is welded and connected. 5. The boot according to claim 4, wherein the open part is welded by heating of a heating body having self-heating property. 6. The method for making a boot comprisingfirst and second mounting parts formed at two axial ends,a bellows part extending between the first and second mounting parts, anda longitudinally extending open part having first and second split end parts and extending between the two axial ends,the first and second split end parts of the open part being mutually opposed,the first and second split end parts of the open part having a protruding part and a recessed part, respectively, extending between the two axial ends,the protruding part having a step-shaped hook, and the recessed part having a step-shaped hook corresponding in shape to the step-shaped hook of the protruding part so that the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part in an unjoining direction in a hook position after the protruding part is positioned in the recessed part, whereby , after they are hooked to each other, unhooking them in the unjoining direction is avoided,an overlapping extending part protruding from the recessed part so that the overlapping extending part guides the protruding part when the protruding part is inserted into the recessed part,the step-shaped hook of the protruding part being within the recessed part when the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part,wherein, when the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part, the overlapping extending part covers the recessed part and the protruding part,the protruding part and the overlapping extending part being formed only at each inner peripheral side of the first and second split end parts so that, when the step-shaped hook of the protruding part is locked by the step-shaped hook of the recessed part, the inner peripheral side bulges inwardly, but an outer peripheral side of each of the first and second split end parts does not bulge outwardly,the outer peripheries of the first and second split end parts being arranged at a same level in the hook position,wherein all of the first and second mounting parts, the first and second split end parts, the bellows part and the overlapping extending part are integrally made of a same material,said method comprising the steps ofputting the boot over a member,thereafter setting a heating element having self-heating property to an open part of the boot, andwelding the open part. 7. The method according to claim 6, wherein a welding agent provided on the open part is heated by the heating element so that the open part is welded. 8. The method according to claim 7, wherein the welding agent is applied to one or two surfaces of the open part so as to weld and join the surfaces together. 9. The method according to claim 8, wherein the welding agent includes at least one of dimethylformamide, tetrahydrofuran, toluene, ethyl acetate, methyl ethyl ketone, acetone, cyclohexanone, dichloromethane, N-methyl-2-pyrolidone, and dibutyl ether. 10. The method according to claim 7, wherein the welding agent consists of a solvent for dissolving a thermoplastic elastomer. 11. The method according to claim 6, wherein the open part is formed by dividing one circumferential part of the boot, and thereafter a welding agent is applied to the open part and is heated by the heating device so that the open part is welded. 12. The method according to claim 11, wherein the heating device is deformable, and the heating device includes an amorphous bag containing a heating component. 13. The method according to claim 11, wherein the heating device has a bellows-form corresponding to a bellows-form of the boot so that the heating device is closely fitted to the open part along the bellows-form of the boot.
