Comments about The Frio The Frio Universal Locking Cold Shoe, for Mounting Any Shoe Mount Accessory to a 1/4-20 Thread:

How imaginative. A cold shoe called "Frio" which is Spanish for "cold".

Name aside. This is a nice little flash mount. Extra nice in that it has the little hole to accept the locking pin on Nikon flashes and apparently also has features that lock Canon flashes in place too. Not to mention the extra safety measure of the plastic tab at the back to hold the flash from slipping out even if it's not locked in place otherwise.

It is meant to be used on a threaded stand however. It can't be used alone to keep a flash standing upright on a floor, table or other surface.
