An improved sole structure for attachment to a shoe for bicyclists. The sole structure includes a conformed rigid body having in the front region a plurality of recessed seats each containing a fastener for attachment to a plate anchoring the sole structure to a bicycle pedal, and also includes in the plantar arch region a recessed seat containing a bolt fastened to a plate provided on the sole lower side, the plate being connected to a strap for attaching the sole structure securely onto a foot of a bicyclist. The sole structure provides channels extending rearwardly through the sole from a downward protruding frontal face for air ventilation of the foot of a cyclist, and includes a heel block attached to the sole lower surface rear portion to facilitate normal walking for the cyclist. The sole body upper face may include front and rear soft resilient cushions for improved support of the foot of the bicyclist. Preferably, the body structure includes an insole having a plurality of perforations located in flow communication with dual channels extending from a front inlet opening along the sole upper face to more effectively ventilate the cyclist's foot. A resilient layer such as organosiloxane gel may be provided in selected area portions of the insole.
