Pole shoes in a D.C. machine are designed to support the field coils, spread out the magnetic flux for better uniformity, and reduce the reluctance of the magnetic path. They do not directly function to reduce eddy current loss; instead, eddy current losses are typically reduced by laminating the core where the magnetic flux changes direction.
