About the product: The Flex-On Green Composite Stirrups are the perfect choice for all riders, combining comfort, performance and style! This innovative design is manufactured with a single piece steel core and coated with an organically sourced polyamid material and integrates the shock-absorbing flex-on system. This can help to prevent injury by minimising pressure placed on joints caused by the movement of your horse. They are customisable by replacing the magnets-as well as a wide variety of options for the base colour of your stirrups!

What were your first impressions? “I loved the idea of the shock absorbers and the customisation element of the stirrups”

How was the sizing and fit? “The size was good, I have quite small feet and worried they were going to be too big but they fit really nicely!”

How did you test the product? “I hacked, schooled and jumped in them as well as going cross country and after riding in these stirrups I was able to ride longer with no pain. This is good because I have had a knee operation and have broken my back!”

What was your favourite feature? “The shock absorbers are my favourite part as it allows me to ride without any pain”

Any other comments? “I now put these stirrups on any other horse I ride. I highly recommend and I love the fact that you can customise them. “
