Since it's introduction in the mid 1960's the Imperial "Original" has been regarded as the "Rolls Royce" of tournament horseshoes. In the first years of existence it gained the favor of the top players and won State, National and World championships. In 1968 Elmer Hohl of Canada used Imperials when he set the all time record for the highest ringer percentage ever in the Men's division of the World Tournament. That record of 88.2 percent still stands today as well as countless championships by many top players right up to now. This is a proven horseshoe that has earned it's great reputation.

Congratulations to Joan Elmore for repeating as Women's World Champion on August 4, 2007 in Ardmore, OK... Joan once again forced a play-off by defeating Sue Snyder in nail-biter in the final round of regulation play.  But this time the play-off was with Sue and again, Joan turned it on in the end winning decisively with an 89.39% game, not giving Sue much room to even score. She went 19 - 1 in the extremely competitive finals, pitching an impressive (for the poor conditions) 81.39% over 20 games.  Yes, once again, the Imperial Original Horseshoe did the job... well, maybe Joan helped it a little bit...  but still, another impressive victory for an Imperial pitcher, right?

Some of this might be a bit redundant, but it's all worth saying again...This shoe is always in stock, year round, and it is manufactured from the highest quality, most durable alloy on the market and carries our famous one-year no hassle factory warranty... If they break under warranty, like all the shoes we make, you'll have a new pair immediately... we take care of business.  Just ask anyone... we take care of all our customers, before and after the sale.

When you proceed to the next page to enter this item into your shopping cart, you will be prompted to choose quantity, color and weight options. The color option is pretty basic, but the weight option requires a bit of explanation...

In the weight selection box, you will be asked to choose from three selections: official weight, medium and heavy.  The official weight of a horseshoe is 2 lbs. 8 oz. and the NHPA allows for a variance of two ounces, making the maximum weight 2 lbs. 10 oz. 

If you select "Official Weight" you will get horseshoes within that range and that generally satisfies most everyone.

Occasionally, some advanced  pitchers want to specify shoes on the lighter side or heavier side of that range and that's why we have the other two selections. If "Medium" is requested you'll get shoes at the bottom of the weight range and if "Heavy" is selected you'll get shoes near the maximum weight. Obviously, it's only a two ounce range, so the difference is nearly imperceptible to most people.  But for those who have a preference, those options are there.  It seems those who've been at it a while seem to prefer the slightly heavier shoe.

If you have an even more specific weight request than this you will have to call in and ask us about it at 1-800-841-4685, Mon thru Fri, 9 am to 5 pm Eastern Time.

Note: If you want to order multiple pairs of the same item with different colors and weights on each you may have to enter the items individually into the cart. But don't worry, the appropriate quantity discount will still be applied.
