Thanks for writing! There are could be a few different factors contributing to the design of your shoe. For example, it could the way they interact with your balances or maybe just a manufacturer choice a design.

Are you looking to determine if our 15-015 is the right replacement for your existing pivot shoe? If so, I'll need to see a photo of it removed from the window. It would also help to see a photo of the compatible balance it is used with.

Please let me know if you have any questions in the meantime.
