Abstract: Improved horseshoe of the type substantially consisting of an element with legs (6-7), which either or not merge into each other, and whereby the upper surface (8) of which, which is intended for coming into contact with the hoof (2), is provided with unevennesses, such as grooves, ribs, protrusions or impressions, characterized in that at least one leg (6) or (7) is provided with a surface (17), (18), respectively, the surface structure of which differs from that of the remaining part (A) of said upper surface (8).

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a horseshoe provided with at least one clip wherein a rod part with a predetermined length is formed by cutting it from a straight rod. The length of the rod part depends on the desired size of the horseshoe. Part of a first longitudinal side of the rod part is blanked out by a cutting tool such that at least one cam-shaped part remains on the first longitudinal side. Each cam-shaped part is subsequently plastically deformed in a direction which is mainly perpendicular to a top side of the rod part such that a clip which extends substantially perpendicular to the top side is formed. The rod part is bent such that an actual horseshoe is formed. The invention includes the horseshoe obtained by the method.
