Stirrup buying guide
People who have been around horses are well acquainted with the different types of
stirrups used in horseback riding. Those who are new to horseback riding may have
an idea as to what stirrups are. Choosing the proper stirrups is important for safety
reasons and to promote proper riding, and bonding with the horse. To select the right
stirrups, shoppers will first need to understand what stirrups are, what different parts
make up the stirrup, and the differences between English and Western stirrups.
A shopper will also need to know how to determine the appropriate size stirrup for their
riding needs.
What Are Stirrups?
A stirrup is a piece of equestrian equipment that attaches to thesaddle and holds the
feet of the rider. The stirrup can be shaped differently depending on its use. The strap
that the stirrup is connected to can be of varying lengths depending on the style of riding.
There are usually two stirrups (one for each foot), and they are used for mounting the
horse as well as helping to keep the rider balanced when on the horse.
Differences Between English and Western Stirrups
There are two different types of horseback riding: English and Western. Because the
two types vary greatly, the equipment, or tack needed for riding will also vary.
English Riding
English riding is much older than the Western style of riding. English riding tack is
designed to provide the rider with maximum maneuverability. This style of riding
often involves jumps, racing, and general riding. In English riding, the stirrups are
worn shorter so that the knees are higher. This makes it easier for the rider to lean
forward for posting and jumping.The stirrups in English riding are made up of two
parts. The stirrup irons are the metal hoops that the rider places their feet in. The
stirrup leathers are the straps that attach the irons to the saddle, and can be
adjusted as needed. The stirrups swing freely on each side of the horse. The stirrup
irons and leathers can be changed as often as needed for different purposes.
Types of English Stirrup Irons
Before purchasing stirrups, English style riders need to determine what type of riding
they will be doing. Riders should select stirrup irons and leathers that are comfortable
for riding and fit appropriately. Shoppers will need to purchase the irons and leathers
separately, and should understand the differences and the benefits of each type confers.
English Stirrup Irons
English stirrup irons are not actually made of iron anymore. Most often they are made
from stainless steel, or they can be made from aluminum when used by jockeys for
horse racing. Stirrup irons made from cheaper metals, such as nickel, should be avoided
since they are not as durable and may pose a safety risk. The most common types of
English stirrup iron shapes are common/standard, Fillis, peacock, and jointed.
Common English Stirrups
The standard or common English stirrups are used the most. These are designed for
general riding purposes and have not changed much since their introduction. These
stirrups have an open oval that the food rests on and is covered with a tread or pad.
The top of the iron has an eye for the stirrup leather to run through.
English Fillis Stirrups
The Fillis stirrup was designed by James Fillis in the 1800s. This type of stirrup is
shaped like the common stirrup, but it is heavier and has a thicker tread. Fillis
stirrups are most commonly used by dressage riders.
English Peacock Stirrups
Peacock stirrups are often called safety stirrups. These are designed to prevent the
rider’s foot from being caught in the stirrup in case they fall off of the horse. These
differ from other types of stirrups because rather than being metal all the way around,
peacock stirrups have a thick rubber or elastic band on one side that will break away
when the rider falls. These types of stirrups are most commonly used with children.
Jointed English Stirrups
Jointed English stirrups are designed to be flexible and provide better shock absorption.
This type of stirrup uses spring construction on both sides of the stirrup that provide
cushion with downward movements. This results in more comfortable riding for the
rider’s knees and the horses’s back.
Determining Proper Stirrup Size
Having the proper stirrup size is important not only for comfort but also for safety.
When measuring for stirrups or trying stirrups on for size, riders should be sure to
wear their riding boots. With all stirrups, riding boots with a thick heel should be
worn for traction and to prevent the foot from falling through the stirrup. Since riding
boots are always worn with stirrups, the stirrup needs to accommodate that size.
To measure stirrups for the proper size, riders should measure the widest parts of their
feet. They should then add one or two inches to that measurement to account for the
extra space needed on each side. A good rule of thumb when determining size is to have
enough room for a finger on each side when the boot is in the stirrup. Stirrup sizes
usually range from 4-5 inches wide.Some riders may choose to have less of a gap
because of preference, but they should be advised that with a smaller gap, it can be
harder to get the boot in and out of the stirrup. It is also easier for the foot to be caught
in the stirrup in case of a fall.
