Abstract

An in-line roller skate that includes a boot having a sole plate to which an in-line roller wheel system is attached and further including a shell and a collar mounted for articulation on the boot for securing the boot to the leg and foot, a U-shaped clamping member having a front plate and an arcuate shaped back plate that conforms to the shape of the boot collar, the plates being cojoined by a base member wherein the plates are biased towards each other, the clamping member removably secured to the boot collar by passing over the boot collar at the spine with the back plate placed inside the collar wherein the back plate extends downwardly along the length of the collar to a depth that brings the base member into contact with the collar wherein the base member cooperates with the arcuate shaped back plate to prevent the frame from canting out of parallel with the spine, and the front plate having integral to and extending from it a frame for holding an article.
