Description
Feature flexible sides that can pivot or bend, offering shock absorption and potentially reducing strain on the rider’s knees and ankles. Jointed stirrups are a type of English stirrup designed to offer enhanced flexibility and comfort for the rider. These stirrups feature hinges or flexible joints on either side, allowing the stirrup to pivot and move with the rider’s foot. This flexibility helps absorb shock and reduces strain on the rider’s ankles, knees, and hips, particularly beneficial during activities that involve a lot of movement, such as jumping or eventing. The foot-bed of jointed stirrups often has a non-slip surface for added grip. By allowing more natural movement of the rider’s foot and leg, jointed stirrups can improve overall riding comfort and reduce the risk of joint and muscle fatigue.
Material: Stainless Steel and Rubber
Size:
Common sizes for Jointed riding stirrups typically range from 4 inches to 5 inches in width. The exact size needed depends on the rider’s foot size.
Children’s stirrups: Often 4.0 inches or smaller.
Standard adult sizes: Generally 4.25 inches, 4.50 inches, and 4.75 inches.

When choosing stirrup size, it’s important to ensure there’s enough space on either side of the rider’s boot to prevent getting stuck but not so much space that the foot slips through easily.
