The Tradition series racing plates from Kerckhaert offer the North American market an option for shoeing styles and feet that require a narrower pattern than the Kings. The main design differences are the shape, a slight taper in the width from toe to heel, a nail pattern that is spread and punched slightly finer. This has met with a good response from farriers in the market. They are finding that the Tradition and the Kings shape have a place in their trucks due to the wider variations of front shaped feet. Shoes are symmetrical.
