A brakeshoe for shuttle brakes on a loom which stops a shuttle in a shuttlebox after the shuttle has inserted a filling yarn during weaving cloth. The brakeshoe includes an arcuate shaped rigid support member. Positioned on top of the acrcuate shaped rigid support member is a rubber layer which has a height decreasing with increasing distance from the selvage of the cloth. A coating of abrasion proof material such as shett steel, covers the upper surface of the rubber layer on a side next to the shuttlebox for engaging the shuttle as it enters the shuttlebox.
