The ACR Heart Bar Shoe provides excellent support for the frog by spreading pressure more widely. Its widely spaced nail holes let you free the toe by nailing the quarters. It provides a large contact area and optimal support for the third phalange. The quarter clips provide wall support if the toe is cut away. The tight heel bend allows for the laminitic foot's typical shape and facilitates application; the split in the heart bar lets you adjust the heel-to-heel distance. Its effect is increased by using a support silicone such as LUWEX Premium.
