A shoe cleat (1) with improved traction includes at least one resiliently flexible traction element (6) extending from a hub (7) and being resiliently deflectable in a direction toward the sole of a shoe when the cleat (1) is secured to the sole. The cleat (1) is further configured to trap and engage blades of grass during resilient deflection of the traction element when the shoe is forced against a turf surface. The grass blades are frictionally engaged and secured in a non-planar engaging area by the traction element (6) resulting in an enhanced traction of the shoe with respect to the turf surface. A convex foot (12) on the traction element includes a suitable curvature to facilitate sliding of the foot along the turf surface as the traction element (6) deflects to avoid penetration into the turf.

Cette invention concerne un crampon (1) de chaussure permettant d'obtenir une plus grande traction. Ce crampon comprend au moins un élément (6) de traction faisant saillie sous une plaque de fixation (7), lequel élément présente un certain degré de souplesse élastique et peut dévier de manière élastique en direction de la semelle d'une chaussure lorsque le crampon (1) est fixé à la semelle. Le crampon (1) est également conçu pour piéger et bloquer des brins d'herbe pendant la déviation élastique de l'élément de traction lorsque la chaussure s'enfonce dans une surface engazonnée. Les brins d'herbe sont bloqués par friction et fixés dans une zone de fixation non plane par l'élément (6) de traction, ce qui permet d'obtenir une plus grande traction de la chaussure par rapport à la surface engazonnée. Un pied (12) convexe sur l'élément de traction comprend une courbure permettant de faciliter le glissement du pied sur la surface engazonnée lorsque l'élément (6) de traction dévie pour éviter la pénétration dans le gazon.
