  • Patent number: 6754984
    Abstract: A sports shoe, in particular a soccer boot, comprises a sole (1) which is made of plastic and has on its underside (2) at least one carrier surface (3 to 5) which is configured raised. In each of these surfaces there are embedded at least two threaded inserts (6) that serve for receiving traction elements (7 to 10) capable of being screwed in. The shoe is characterized in that the at least one carrier surface (3 to 5) has such a geometric shape and the threaded inserts (6) in the at least one carrier surface (3 to 5) are positioned such that several interchangeable sets of different traction elements (7 to 10) are able to be screwed into the threaded inserts (6).
