Footwear including removable and replaceable outsole members may include:
(a) an upper member; (b) a midsole member, having an exterior surface not
designed for performance use in direct contact with the ground, fixedly
engaged with the upper member; and (c) an outsole member designed for
performance use in contact with the ground removably attached over at
least a major portion of the midsole member. The outsole member may
attach to the midsole member and/or upper member in a variety of
different ways. In use, the wearer may select a specific set of outsole
members to use at a given time depending, for example, on the type of
play surface, temperature, and/or other conditions. Worn outsole members
may be replaced without the expense involved in also replacing the
remainder of the footwear.
