首款马蹄专用跑鞋面世

“The Mega-Lock tape remains approximately 3 weeks on the hoof and is protected with a protection foil during the time the hoof goes bare. The foil has a sealing lip similar to swimming goggles, so that the Mega-Lock tape is prevented from water and dirt intrusion,” Megasus claims.

Megasus公司称：“Mega-Lock 胶带可以在马蹄上维持三周左右，没有装马掌的时候，Mega-Lock 胶带上的保护箔可以起到保护作用。保护箔上有类似于泳镜密封圈的东西，可以防水、耐脏。”

The Austrian company ensures horse owners that the clip-on system is so strong that the Horserunners will stay on the hoof in any terrain.

这家奥地利公司向马主人保证，这些夹扣设计很牢固，马穿着跑鞋在各种地形上奔跑都不会掉。

“The time is ripe for healthy and comfortable hoof protection for horses,” Charly Forstner said. “In 1998, I already proved with a wedge test that the hoof moves on the vertical plane 1-2cm, almost 10 times more than horizontally, and without affecting the overlying joint. This means that the hoof works jointly and compensates for ground irregularities such as stones and ground waves. A rigid fixation of the hoof capsule by a horseshoe is, therefore, very close to plastering it. Horseshoes immobilize ligaments and tendons; hence, it makes the blood flow becomes weaker.” Apparently, the Megasus Horserunners change all that.
