There is a boot band clamp at the top and bottom of the boot. My old '91 Pathfinder had a similar boot with the band clamps integrated into the boot. These bands pinch the boot around the shifting lever at the top and the control housing at the bottom. I recall carefully prying the bottom off the housing first and then pulling it up, inside out, until I could push the top of the boot up past the step in the shift lever where the top of the boot sits. With the knob removed, I could then slide the boot off the lever. Whatever is in the way of getting to the bottom edge of the boot so that you can pry it up and off the control housing, has to be removed first.
