The HY'BRED Sport Shoe can be used as a true orthopedic device, designed to allow fluid movement, traction, shock absorption, and as a therapeutic alternative to traditional shoeing methods.

In testing the validity of the HY'BRED Sport Shoes' claims, we have been able to affix our shoe to a number of equine concerns. Case studies have been conclusive in their findings that the shoe provides significant benefits to the soundness of the equine athlete. In the design, we recognized the importance of our clients to have the ability to slide a bit before contact, which enables a more natural fluid movement. Once the hoof has ground contact it was equally important to provide confident stability which our design offers. Numerous studies have shown the concussive benefits of a Urethane to ground over the steel / aluminum to ground connection.

The HY'BRED shoe provides the ability to absorb the loading force; significantly providing substantial shock reduction characteristics. Additionally, the scope of our testing enabled us to work with horses with multiple pathologies including Osteochondrosis (OCD), Splints, Sidebone, Ringbone, Arthritis or Degenerative Joint Disease, Caudal Heel Pain, and Laminitis. We found that a Ferrier could use the HY'BRED Sport Shoe in place of traditional shoeing for all these concerns.

For All Horses

Steel vs. Rubber/Urethane
There are more than a dozen ways that shoes are known to damage the feet, legs, and circulatory system of the horse. One of the worst damages comes from loss of shock absorption.

While no shoes are the healthiest for horses In the tough yet elastic barefoot hoof, the flexing of the weighted hoof can absorb as much as 2,000 lbs. of concussion. But the horseshoe holds the foot inflexible, canceling out 75% of its ability to absorb shock. Instead, the concussion goes on up the leg and damages joints and tendons that were not designed to take so much shock.

With the addition to the shock detuning Urethane the HY'BRED shoes give support and safety needed the horseshoe mimics the horses natural gait.

Results
A Sound Healthy horse: Because of the nature of a horse's hoof and the concussive forces the shoe prevents and the enormous amount of pressure put on the hoof. The horseshoe mimics the horses hoof and the rubber spread naturally before the hoof. Relieve the pressure and force that will cause damage and aliments to the noble animals hoof and leg.
