Jim Blurton Lateral Extension Heartbar

The Jim Blurton Lateral Extension Heartbar is a highly specialised remedial shoe designed for horses presenting with complex foot problems arising from competition, injury, or conformational challenges. It combines the frog-supporting properties of the heart bar shoe with a lateral extension that provides additional support and stability to the lateral aspect of the hoof. This makes it a valuable tool in the management of conditions requiring simultaneous frog loading and lateral stabilisation, such as mediolateral imbalance alongside laminitis or chronic navicular syndrome. Each shoe in the Jim Blurton remedial range is designed for both comfort and ease of fitting, giving the farrier a clean, well-made starting point for what can be technically demanding work. Available in multiple sizes, it belongs in the kit of any farrier undertaking complex corrective and therapeutic shoeing.

Jim Blurton Lateral Extension Heartbar Horseshoes are designed to solve foot issues caused from the various stresses of competition and everyday problems. Each shoe is designed for comfort and ease of fitting, providing the farrier with everything they need in a shoe to provide a perfect fit and solution every time.
