American Equus Hunter Safety Stirrup

The stirrup features a side arm designed to open under pressure. If a rider falls, the weight and angle of the foot against the arm trigger it to release, allowing the boot to exit the stirrup freely and preventing the rider from being dragged.

Yes, they are designed specifically with the hunter ring in mind. The traditional aesthetic and understated finish comply with the conservative equipment standards typically required in hunter classes.

Absolutely. The stirrups are crafted from high-grade aluminum and feature an anodized finish, which makes them both rust and corrosion-resistant. They are built to withstand the rigors of daily training and various weather conditions.

Unlike traditional rubber pads that can wear down or become slippery when wet, the integrated tread is machined directly into the stirrup base. This provides a more consistent, aggressive grip that helps keep your foot secure through technical courses.

No, they are significantly lighter. The aluminum construction reduces the overall weight on the saddle, which can help minimize fatigue during long days at the barn while still providing the necessary durability for jumping.
