MICHEL VAILLANT, AN INNOVATIVE MANUFACTURER Our company has been designing and producing specific equine hoof products for over 100 years.Our knowledge and important industrial culture reprensent a strong advantage for both our manufacturing process and our marketing strategy. We only invest in high-tech tools and machines. Working consistently with top quality makes our company innovative and sucessful in the market.Specialized in the sporthorse locomotion, we have logically expanded to the design and production of Aluminum horseshoes.

Our 3 ultimate goals with those Aluminum shoes are to :• Offer a therapeutic shoeing solution for most of the locomotive illnesses/pathologies in collaboration with veterinary researches.• Contribute to sport performances while maximizing the horse’s wellbeing.• Improve the aluminum shoes’ quality to obtain the best ratio between efficiency and durability.

A CLOSE COLLABORATION WITH PROFESSOR JEAN-MARIE DENOIX

Jean-Marie Denoix is a veterinarian and an associate Professor at the «National Veterinary School of Maisons-Alfort» (France). He is largely recognized by his peers as one of the best horse locomotion experts of the world. Pr. Denoix also manages the «CIRALE» which is a unique organization specialized on the research and the diagnostic of horses’ locomotive disorders.

Since the 80’s, Professor Denoix and his team have been regularly collaborating with the company, Michel Vaillant during specific events, trainings and conventions; such as the KINESIC, first ongoing training program for farriers, specialized in the anatomy of the horse, and in bio mechanical and

therapeutic shoeing. Many products were designed and tested from this partnership. For instance, the educational film, «The Functional Anatomy of the Horse’s Tendon», the «Parabolic» steel shoe, the «JMD» orthopedic aluminum shoes.Those JMD shoes have been specifically constructed to answer specific equine veterinary needs.

To dispose of an industrial line of therapeutic horse shoes which has been scientifically validated in order to facilitate the prescription by the veterinarian and the implementation by the farrier for an accurate and efficient treatment of the locomotive pathologies. The orthopedic shoeing concept was introduced after two decades of bio mechanical researching by Professor Denoix. These findings have proven that articular or tendinous forming can be relieved individually by changing the longitudinal and transversal’s balance of the horse’s hooves specifically by altering the manner of which the hoof penetrates soft and reactive grounds.

WHY ALUMINUM ? Primarily for its light weight compare to a steel shoe wich will lighter the lower limbs and reduce the stress on the different structures. In the past, we used to think that heavy steel shoes were more shock absorbing, we know now that heavy shoes increase vibrations. Lightening the lower limb allows for the specific movements to be performed more efficiently such as faster or higher depending on the discipline.The technicity of modern alloys combined with our skills and industrial knowledge, able us to offer extremely resistant aluminum shoes. Our shoes are as wear resistant as any other steel shoes (based on 5 to 6 weeks shoeing). Our endurance race shoes are regularly tested during 55 to 100 miles endurance races without needing the farrier’s assistance during the race.

DESCRIPTION : “M” shaped shoe. Wide rear support under the heels and frog. Open toe. Front shape. Designed in high-tech aluminium alloy. Non-tempered alloy : hot work possible up to 450 °C. 2 quarter clips. Thickness 12 mm. Coverage and weight in size 1 :35 mm for the rear support and 25 mm for the rest of the shoe. 292 g.

CONCEPT AND REACTION ON THE GROUND : Wide surface for optimum support of the rear part of the foot. Frog support to support the foot under the frog. No bearing surface at the toe. Easy control of the sole and access to treat sites of necrosis. Perforated frog support for reduced weight and to permit the injection of silicone under the frog.

BIOMECHANICAL AND KINETHERAPEUTIC EFFECTS : Moves the bearing surface back onto the rear part of the foot. Supports the distal phalanx. Avoids painful support under the toe and minimizes dorsal compressions of the coronae corium.

INDICATIONS :Shoe mainly used in cases of laminitis. By cutting the frog support at its 2/3 part along the line, it is possible to use the shoe for podotrochlear syndrome grade 3.5 (between reverse shoe grade 3 and wedge reverse shoe grade 4).

CONCEPT AND REACTION ON THE GROUND : The wide branch and the onion heel provide support and limit sinking into penetrable and compacted ground. The narrow and bevelled branch improves sinking into penetrable ground (enlarged surface under the heel on the foot side for more comfort).

BIOMECHANICAL AND KINETHERAPEUTIC EFFECTS : Depending on the application of the shoe (medial or lateral wide branch): re-balances the foot in case of lateral or medial overload. Re-balances the joints in case of deviation of the distal limb. Reduces tension on collateral ligaments.

INDICATIONS :Deviations of the distal limb : valgus or varus (medial wide branch if valgus or lateral wide branch if varus). Subchondral compression bone lesions (narrow branch on the side of the lesion to reduce pressure). Desmopathy of collateral ligaments (wide branch on the side of the lesion to reduce tension).

BONAPARTIX® S TR Shoe front or hind

Designed by Professor Jean-Marie Denoix, DVM, PhD director of the CIRALE (Normandy, France).

DESCRIPTION : Trotter model. Reverse shoe also called “Napoléon shoe” in France. Rear support under the base of the frog. Open toe. For front or hind feet. Designed in high-tech aluminium alloy. Non-tempered alloy : hot work possible up to 450 °C. 2 quarter clips. Thickness 8 mm. Coverage and weight in size 1 : 24mm for the rear support (29 mm under the base of the frog) and 18 mm on the rest of the shoe. 116 g.

CONCEPT AND REACTION ON THE GROUND : Wide rear surface to increase support and to limit sinking of the heels into penetrable and compacted ground. Bevelled outer rim at the rear part of the shoe to reduce rear leverage. Open toe and bevelled ends of branches to promote maximum rolling. Bevel on toe quarters to limit collateromotion and rotation during propulsion in turns.

BIOMECHANICAL AND KINETHERAPEUTIC EFFECTS : Reduces stress on the distal sesamoid bone and on the deep digital flexor tendon. Reduces general stress on the podotrochlear apparatus and interphalangeal joint mechanics.

INDICATIONS :Podotrochlear syndrome grade 3. Pathology of the deep digital flexor tendon and accessory ligament (distal check ligament).

SUSPENSORIX® TR Shoe front or hind

Designed by Professor Jean-Marie Denoix, DVM, PhD director of the CIRALE (Normandy, France).

DESCRIPTION : Trotter shoe with a wide toe and bevelled narrow branches. For front or hind feet. Designed in high-tech aluminium alloy. Non-tempered alloy : hot work possible up to 450°C. 3 clips for use with 1 toe clip or 2 quarter clips. Thickness 8mm. Coverage and weight in size 1 : 30mm on the toe. On branches : 18mm foot side and 10mm ground side. 110g.

CONCEPT AND REACTION ON THE GROUND : On penetrable and compacted ground: wide front support to limit sinking of the toe into the ground. Narrow bevelled branches to promote the sinking of heels. Enlarged surface under the heels on the foot side for more comfort. Slightly bevelled outer rim on the toe to promote rolling.

BIOMECHANICAL AND KINETHERAPEUTIC EFFECTS : Reduces stress on the fetlock joint suspensory ligament and on the superficial digital flexor tendon. Reduces general stress on the fetlock joint suspensory apparatus (suspensory ligament, proximal scutum, straight and oblique sesamoidean ligaments).

INDICATIONS :Desmopathy of the fetlock joint suspensory ligament. Pathology of the superficial digital flexor tendon. Desmopathy of the sesamoidean ligaments (straight and oblique). Arthrosis of the fetlock joint.
