Our manufacturerFlex-onoffers shock-absorbing safety stirrups with Ultra Grip. Inside, there is a steel core and outside, plastic, which significantly reduces the weight of these stirrups.

To improve grip, stirrupsare equipped with special treads. These are available in either rubber or metal. Which material you prefer depends on your personal preferences. Some manufacturers, such as our manufacturer Sprenger, combine the advantages of both materials.
