I have some cleats that say Look Patent, what are the compatible look pedals? I am pretty sure that that is what the cleats say but correct me if I am wrong.

Are you sure that's a cleat? Metal or plastic? If it's plastic it's almost certainly a "place-holder" that is intended to be replaced by a cleat.– Daniel R HicksMar 22, 2021 at 21:05

@daniel r Hicks I’ve never seen a metal look cleat. They are always plastic.– AndrewMar 23, 2021 at 11:29

@Andrew - I've never seen a plastic cleat.– Daniel R HicksMar 23, 2021 at 11:47

1@DanielRHicks - you must not be very familiar with clipless pedals. Look pedals with plastic cleats were the dominant road bike clipless system for a couple of decades and are still quite common. They are the reason that so many road bike shoes come with 3-bolt pattern soles.– AndrewMar 23, 2021 at 13:16

I cannot correct you if you are wrong because I can't see your cleats. I assume you have 3-bolt cleats. Look also makes 2-bolt cleats, but that's not what they're known for.
Your cleats are probably compatible with Look Keo pedals; in addition to Look themselves, there are a lot of other companies making Keo-compatible pedals. Look has an older design called "Delta" that is not compatible with Keo, so if your cleats look really old, they might be Deltas. I don't think anyone is still making Delta pedals.
Note that Shimano SPD-SL pedals are very similar but incompatible; note also that Shimano SPD pedals are completely unrelated to SPD-SL pedals.

2Photo added - that's definitely a Keo cleat so you can firm up your answer.– DavidWMar 22, 2021 at 20:03

Concur - and they're barely worn at all. Perhaps a ride or two at most, or even just walking around.– Criggie ♦Mar 22, 2021 at 21:49

It's mostly a matter of how much you want to spend to get lighter pedals and fancier materials. Mar 22, 2021 at 23:43
