What length stirrup leathers do I need?
Stirrup leather length depends on your inseam and discipline. As a general guide: 48cm for juniors, 54cm for most adults (standard), 58cm for tall riders, and 62cm for very tall riders. Dressage riders typically use longer leathers than jumpers. If in doubt, our team can help you choose.
How often should I replace my stirrup leathers?
Inspect your stirrup leathers regularly for signs of wear, stretching, cracking or damaged holes. Leather leathers typically need replacement every 1–3 years depending on use. Stretched or worn leathers can break, which is a serious safety risk. Replace immediately if you notice any damage.
Are synthetic stirrup leathers as good as leather?
Quality synthetic leathers are durable, low-maintenance and resistant to stretching, making them a practical choice for many riders. However, premium leather leathers offer a traditional feel and appearance that many riders prefer for competition. Both have their advantages — it comes down to personal preference and discipline.
Do you stock magnetic stirrups with matching leathers?
Yes, we stock Freejump magnetic stirrups and compatible stirrup leathers. Magnetic stirrups require specific boot soles for the magnetic connection to work. Our team can advise on the complete setup you need for magnetic stirrups, including the correct boots.
How do I care for leather stirrup leathers?
Clean leather leathers regularly with a damp cloth and leather cleaner, then condition with a quality balm to prevent drying and cracking. Rotate the leathers between left and right periodically to ensure even stretching. Inspect holes and buckle areas for signs of wear.
