The Costin Horseshoe has been created by a highly respected, Australian Master Farrier, Steve Costin, who designed, developed and tested the horseshoes in Australia in conditions which are found throughout the world.

A wholly Australian-owned business, headquartered in Brisbane, Queensland, Costin Horseshoes Pty Ltd is exclusively responsible for designing, developing this groundbreaking Costin Horseshoe to the world. David Lucas has been appointed as the exclusive representative for Costin Horseshoes in the USA.

The company stresses that this shoe does not claim to fix problems in horses. However, many amazing outcomes are being reported in horses, where the change has been made from steel and aluminium horseshoes to the new polyurethane Costin Horseshoe. These outcomes have especially been noted in regard to shin soreness. Having said that, the Costin Horseshoe is design to make horses more comfortable and in so doing, give better results in many arenas – racing, trotting, competing or general riding duties.

The differences you see in a horse after shoeing with Costin Horseshoes, makes you wonder what level of discomfort etc the horse was experiencing when wearing steel or aluminium shoes.

What the Costin Horseshoe is definitely designed to do is to make a good horse even better. Although Steve Costin started his journey on developing the Costin Horseshoe while treating a laminitic mare, the shoe is not designed for laminitic horses or as an orthopaedic shoe. In general, it is essentially a polyurethane shoe, which is designed to replace steel and aluminium horseshoes.
