Which size of glue-on shoe should I choose?
Please select the appropriate hoof size for your horse. The hoof size must be measured at the widest part (not the length!) of the hoof. If in doubt, choose the smaller size, the width can be flexibly selected using the bars provided. The hooves should be measured as soon as possible after hoof care, as this can influence the size of the hoof.
Use the following size chart to select the correct glue-on shoe size:

Key-Facts Hoofstar RALLY:
- You are free to choose which glue you want to use - acrylic glue is just as possible as PU glue.
- Because of the many holes in the shoe, you can see exactly where the glue is going and you need less glue.
- We recommend using white acrylic glue for better visibility.
- If you choose acrylic glue, the shoe can even be reused. This is because the glue does not bond directly to the shoe, but holds by flowing through the holes and forming little mushroom heads.
- The enlarged profile of the sole gives your horse more grip and tread resistance.
- The shoe can now be used for longer because the abrasion resistance has been increased.
How is the glue-on shoe Rally applied?
You can find detailed illustrated instructions and various instruction videos here. More details about the Hoofstar Rally and adhesive fittings can be found here.
We have also written a longer blog article that points out possible sources of error when gluing. It is highly recommended that you read it carefully before gluing for the first time. Click here for the blog article: Adhesive fitting rally: Why does the adhesive come off again?
