Any ideas? I'm guessing some pedal clip thing but I'm confused - look more like football boot studs to me.

Studs for the front of mtb shoes,

i think the other gold bits are shims.

The other bits are to protect shoe soles from (?) crank bros pedals, I think

They let you get some grip going up muddy banks. Work well (like a football stud)
