LOOK patented the clipless pedal in 1984. Since then, more professional and amateur athletes have ridden LOOK pedals to victory than any other system in the world. Although few are actually sponsored, most choose to race and win on LOOK year after year. The research and development team at LOOK has gained valuable product feedback from listening to and understanding the needs and demands of top professional cyclists such as Laurent Brochard (1997 Professional Road Racing World Champion), Alex Zulle, Richard Virenque, Laurent DuFaux, Mario Cipollini, Ivan Gotti, Michele Bartoli, and Andrei Tchmil. For more than a decade, the LOOK Delta cleat pedaling system has proven to be the most reliable, safe and efficient system in the world.

I have just picked up a pair - these are the silver ones with the black block at the back. I also have a pair of the second generation plain black, chunky, LOOKs.
