         12 . A versatile cleat for shoe having a front face and a rear face extending between a base and a tip, wherein the tip is offset in relation to the base of the cleat and wherein the cleat includes two cavities separated by an intermediate wall wherein, each cavity is open towards both the tip and the rear face of the cleat so as to favour a natural detachment of the soil when the cleat is removed from the ground, and a fastening means extending from the base thereof, the fastening means being configured to allow the reversible fastening of the cleat to a shoe. 
     
     
         13 . The cleat according to  claim 12 , wherein the fastening means includes a threaded rod extending perpendicularly to the cleat base. 
     
     
         14 . The cleat according to  claim 13 , wherein the threaded rod is surrounding by a washer. 
     
     
         15 . The cleat according to  claim 14 , wherein the washer is of elastic nature so as to allow the deformation thereof during the tightening of the cleat against a sole. 
     
     
         16 . The cleat according to  claim 15 , wherein the washer is of elastic nature so as to allow its thickness varies, depending on the tightening torque applied to the crampon during the screwing of the threaded rod in a threaded housing of a sole. 
     
     
         17 . The cleat according to  claim 12 , wherein the faces of a same cavity that are secant to the base of the cleat form an angle comprised between 30° and 120°. 
     
     
         18 . The cleat according to  claim 12 , wherein the centre of the base and the centre of the tip are arranged so as to define a straight line forming an acute angle (α) with the base. 
     
     
         19 . The cleat according to  claim 12 , wherein the tip of the cleat has a surface area lower than 60% of the surface of the base. 
     
     
         20 . The cleat according to  claim 12 , wherein at least one cavity extends over at least 50% of the distance separating the base from the tip of the cleat. 
     
     
         21 . The cleat according to  claim 12 , wherein at least one cavity comprises a first face opposite to the front face of the cleat. 
     
     
         22 . A shoe comprising at least one cleat according to  claim 12 . 
     
     
         23 . A shoe comprising cleats according to  claim 12 , wherein the rear faces of at least two cleats are oriented differently with respect to the longitudinal direction of the sole of the shoe. 
     
     
         24 . A cleat mounting kit, including:
 a cleat according to  claim 12 ;   a washer comprising an opening in the centre thereof, configured to allow the passage of the threaded rod;   a tool including a housing of complementary shape to the cleat tip and a grasping means configured to facilitate the pivoting of the cleat about the axis of the threaded rod.   
     
     
         25 . A cleat mounting kit according to the  claim 24 , wherein the washer is of elastic nature so as to allow the deformation thereof during the tightening of the cleat against a sole. 
     
     
         26 . The cleat of  claim 12 , wherein the faces of a same cavity that are secant to the base of the cleat form an angle comprised between 80° and 100°. 
     
     
         27 . The cleat of  claim 12 , wherein the centre of the base and the centre of the tip are arranged so as to define a straight line forming an acute angle (α) with the base, the value of this angle being within a range of 60° to 80°. 
     
     
         28 . The cleat of  claim 12 , wherein the tip of the cleat has a surface area comprised between 50% and 20%, of the surface of the base. 
     
     
         29 . The cleat of  claim 12 , wherein at least one cavity extends over at least 80% of the distance separating the base from the tip of the cleat. 
     
     
         30 . The cleat of  claim 21 , wherein the first face is concave in shape.
