<p>A golf shoe stud comprises a moulded plastics body (11) enabling the stud to be mounted in the underside of the shoe, a steel stem (22) which extends through the body and forms a frusto-conical stump (24) projecting below the body, a thin steel lamina (30) which overlies the underside and edges of the plastics body (11), and a nose (20) of tungsten carbide which is mounted on the stump (24). The nose is bonded to the stump by brazing, and an upper end portion (23) of the steel stem is out-turned for securement of the body (11) and the lamina (30) between the out-turned portion (23) and the nose (20). The stud may be of a replaceable kind in which the plastics body (11) forms a threaded spigot (16) and a sole-engaging flange (18), or it may be of a permanent kind in which the moulded body (11') is arranged to be incorporated in manufacture into a moulded shoe sole.</p> |
