Abstract: A two-part horseshoe consists of a channel-shaped upper part (10) to be nailed to the horse's hoof and an exchangeable lower part (20), which is made of an elastic material and has a ridge member (22) that can be pressed up into the channel (15) of the upper part. The side walls of the channel have a plurality of inwardly extending projections (16) with end faces directed toward the channel bottom (11), and the side walls of the ridge member are formed with corresponding recesses (25) which the projections snap into when the ridge member is pressed into position in the channel. In the front portion of the lower part there is embedded a metal insert (40) having partly a locking hook (43) to cooperate with a corresponding locking hook (19) on the front side wall (13) of the upper part, partly a plate-shaped member (41) forming a toe wear bracket on the underside of the lower part.
