By sliding the sleeve over ones shoes and securing it with the over toe buckle, as well as the heel strap, your shoes are now equipped with SPD clips, allowing for cycling using clipless pedals.

as part of a semester long project aimed at designing solutions primarily with the aim of circularity, I designed and developed the Upcycle Cycling Crampon. I created a tool which offers cyclists the functionality of clipless pedals across any footwear, all from recycled materials.
Constructed from retired firehoses, the Upcycle cleat takes advantage of a durable, waterproof material and diverts it from landfill by transforming it into a usable product.
