Alu shoe PHR front MICHEL VAILLANT

Developed with Pierre-Henri Renault, farrier on CSI 5*. Shoe with a wide cover, a double bevel all around the shoe and a bevel on the inner rim. Front shape. Made from hi-tech aluminium alloy. Non-tempered alloy : can be used for risk-free hot shoeing up to 450°C. 3 clips to allow use with option of 1 or 2 clips. Thickness limited to 12 mm.

PRINCIPLE AND INTERACTION WITH THE GROUND : Wide coverage in contact with the foot to distribute loads and protect the sole. Narrow ground bearing surface which is closer to the center of the foot in order to reduce front, medial and lateral lever arm. Designed with a double bevel all around the shoe in order to promote maximum rolling in all directions. Totally bevelled inner rim to reduce weight and to balance sinking into soft grounds between toe and heels.

BIOMECHANICAL AND KINETHERAPEUTIC EFFECTS :

- Reduces joint stresses in particular on distal and proximal interphalangeal joints.

- Reduces collateromotion and rotation movements and stresses on collateral ligaments.

INDICATIONS : Sport shoe made to optimize comfort and performance whilst reducing stresses, particularly on joints.
