<p>An athletic shoe sole, including a sole platform (2), having a plate member (16) slidably engaged therein for movement from a forward to a rearward position wherein the sole platform (2) defines a plurality of ports (18) for receiving a corresponding plurality of cleats (17). The cleats (17) comprise a post (24) having a flange (28) attached to one end and a cleat base (29) attached to the other. The flanges (28) of each cleat (17), once inserted through the ports (18), passes through a corresponding plurality of key slots (19) defined by the plate member (16). When the plate member (16) is urged rearward, a slot (22) portion of each key slot (19) passes around the post (24) and beneath the flange (28) to secure the cleats (17) to the sole platform (2). A threaded bolt (33) is provided to urge the plate member (16) between a forward and a rearward position. Bubbles (23) are defined by the plate member (16) about the key slot (19) to lift the flange (28), post (24), and cleat base (29) upward, and thereby urge the cleat base (29) in pressed abutment with the sole platform (2). The present invention allows the user to quickly replace the cleats (17) as required.</p> |
