ABSTRACT:
The invention is with respect to a gripping element for athletic and sporting footwear, as for example for football footwear. The gripping element takes the form of a bell, which is made of an elastically yielding material so that the downwardly facing edge of the gripping element may be bent when the element is forced against the ground by the weight of the user. For this reason, the gripping element is such that it may be used not only on soft, but furthermore on hard, as for example frozen ground. More specially, the gripping element may be made part of a compound structure, with a conventional cleat within it, such a structure having better gripping powers, more specially in the case of soft, sponge-like ground.
