Hello there. Please start by measuring the depth of your bottom nylon shoe, as illustrated below. It's possible you have an S380-21, which has a 1" deep shoe; or a S385-21, with a 1-3/32" deep shoe; however I suspect your shoe's depth might be less than 1", in which case you'd need a balance outside of our stock items. We could certainly help, but let's confirm first to be safe. In any of these cases, the balance will have a new stamp option of 2030, which correlates with your old balance's stamp of 20C.

Comparison of the S378, S380 and S385 balance shoes.

I'm afraid I can't determine what your precise depth is from just a photo of a tape measure. You will need to measure your shoe as carefully as you can and make your best determination between the two options described above.

Great, then that would be the S380-21 balance, as indicated by the chart above.

Please feel free to reach out if you had any other questions and I'd be happy to assist you.
