An engaging mechanism (900) or a snow board (12) which is longer in a direction along a major axis, comprises a latch (800) which substantially intersects the major axis and is turnable between an engaging position and a releasing position, and an engaging member (756). A cleat (902) comprises a finger side engaging member. (756) engageable with the engaging member (756), and a heel side engaging piece (770) engageable with the latch (680). Both ear pieces are adjusted and separated from each other substantially in a direction along a major axis of a shoe and are generally positioned in the shoe. Formed on a sole of the shoe are recess (936) which permits the finger side engaging member (756) to engage with the engaging member (756) for moving, and another recess (946) which permits the heel side engaging piece (770) to move so as to engage with the latch (680). Engagement between the engaging members and the engaged pieces is effected by a stepping-in action. The cleat is located in the recess of the sole of the shoe and higher than a surface of the snow board, so that malfunction of the engaging mechanism will not be caused by gripping on snow. <IMAGE>
