Description

The "Elite Escape" stirrups are the ultimate way to in customize your ride. The Elite Escape stirrups blend our Traction Pin foot bed design and ergonomic branch design with our new "Escape" Technology . Our foot bed system naturally eases knee, ankle and foot pressure with our unique ramp-in design.  In addition, our proprietary traction pin system secures your foot and provides for an unparalleled connection to the base of the stirrup. The wide base of the foot bed helps you to achieve optimum balance while absorbing concussion to the ball of your foot.  The solid 6061 Aircraft Aluminum construction provides an incredibly safe ride with a 3000 lb per sq.in. lateral crush strength protecting your feet against possible injury in the event of an accident.

Each stirrup is hand-polished and finished in your choice of over 1000 color combinations.

    User Disclaimer & care instructions

    important safety notice

    Hunter EQ Safety Stirrups feature a precision-engineered release arm with a spring-activated opening mechanism. Before each ride, it is critical to confirm that the release arm opens and closes freely without obstruction. Ensure no debris or foreign objects are interfering with the mechanism's functionality.

    installation & usage instructions

    • Mount stirrups with the movable safety arm facing outwardnever toward the horse’s body.
    • For the safety mechanism to function as designed, all the following must apply:
    1. The stirrups are mounted on the correct sides.
    2. The release arm is facing away from the horse.
    3. The foot can naturally press the release arm outward in an emergency.
    4. The mechanism is clean, free of debris, and properly lubricated.
    5. No external obstacles (saddle parts, horse, brush, etc.) block the release.

     Do not insert the ankle into the stirrup ring.

    care & maintenance

    • Clean the grip and release mechanism after every ride using a direct stream of water only—no detergents or chemicals.
      Remove all debris (sand, dirt, stones, etc.) from the moving parts to ensure proper function.
    • Use stirrup covers if storing with the saddle to protect the finish and mechanism.
    • Lubricate the spring mechanism regularly to ensure consistent performance.
    • Only ride with clean boot soles to help preserve tread life and grip performance.

    warnings & restrictions

    • Do not wear clothing, accessories, or boots that could interfere with stirrup function.
    • Tested operating temperatures: -20°C to +80°C.
    • Always verify proper stirrup orientation before riding.
