: I would like to know the measurements for your aluminum competition shoes--length, width, total outside distance around shoes. Do you have this information? I couldn't find it on your web site.
Dear Linda,
We can give you some measurements that should help you. They are in inches, and OD = outside heel tip to heel tip,
L = length from toe to heel through center line and W= width at widest point. Remember that all of these measurements can be changed by hammer shaping the shoe cold.

00.5 OD=13. L=4.750 W=4.750

1 L=5.375 W=4.750

I hope we have hit on the competition shoes you were interested in. There was a shoe sizing chart made by the Farrier Industry Association about 12 years ago, but a lot has changed in those years and it should be redone.
