In dressage, riders are trained to lower their heels and correctly position their stirrups. The angled design of the stirrups helps to correct the rider's posture, ensuring the heels are properly lowered during riding. This angle effectively corrects posture. Of course, you can firmly grip the stirrups. The horse's response also changes. The last photo is included to show the angle. Suitable for official competitions. Made of stainless steel. Width is the same as standard stirrups, 12cm. Stirrup rubbers are also the same.
