Shires
Karben Ultra Grip FX Stirrups
Shirs Stirrup Leathers
As a general guide to the length required - Measure the length of your arm from your armpit to the tip of your fingers for jumping length (or alternatively measure your inseam to ankle for dressage), double to measurement and add 2-4 inches for jumping, or add 6-8 inches for flatwork. Stirrups will add another 6-8 inches to this.
The standard adult length is 54" for general riding and jumping. Shorter riders may select 48 - 52".
The average length for dressage riders is 60". Very tall riders may need 62-67 inches. Shorter dressage riders may choose 56-58 inches.
Usually, a rider will select stirrup leathers which allow them to shorten for jumping and lengthen for flatwork while still allowing enough spare to tuck into the stirrup leather keeper on the saddle to reduce bulk under the leg.
Adult stirrup leathers are 1 inch or more in width.
Children's stirrup leathers are thinner as they are expected to carry less weight.
These Shires Karben Ultra Grip FX Stirrups have been carefully balanced and constructed with reassuring safety benefits. Retaining form under normal circumstance, in the event of a fall the outer safety arm flexes under pressure, allowing escape of the foot and reducing incidence of serious injury to the rider. Following release, the rubber arm retains its original shape and purpose as a supportive lateral arm.
The stirrup is designed in ultra-light aluminium, cast for strength and with sleek lines. Low maintenance powder coating gives a durable finish. The foot plate is deep and secure, deep grip treads give excellent wet or dry traction, making the stirrups ideal for fast work. Secure and stabilising, the weighted base is shock absorbing to keep legs energised. The stirrup’s angled eyelet offers a more naturally optimised hip, knee and foot alignment and assists with retrieval.
