For many riders, regardless of their level of experience, the greatest challenge seems to be keeping the lower body relaxed and supple.
That's why Winderen created their Double Shock Absorbing System stirrups. These innovative stirrups immediately improve the effectiveness of your daily training sessions.
Unrivaled shock absorption confirmed by research
Research confirms that Winderen stirrups significantly reduce knee loading time, reducing overload and increasing the efficiency of the leg muscles and joints. As a result, the rider gains a more stable leg position and better balance in the saddle.
The Winderen stirrups weigh 560g/1.24lb each.
To get the right stirrup weight, the metal frame was made of high quality, durable aluminum. The footpad and also the upper absorber cover are made of durable composite.
This is the weigh most riders described as “appropriate”. They are neither too light nor too heavy. Thanks to the right balance they are virtually undetectable.

At this time, the Winderen stirrups are legal for all English disciplines governed by the FEI. Equestrian Canada and USEF have also approved these stirrups for show jumping, eventing, and dressage!
Most stirrup leathers available on the market with a maximum width of 25 mm/1 inch should fit.
Mono leathers are another great option. Do not choose leathers thicker than 6mm / 0.24 inches if choosing a mono strap stirrup leather.
Yes! You can order a pair of Winderen stirrups on a one week trial. Please contact us to get started.
These stirrups do not have a breakaway/opening arm as a principle of design; in order for the shock absorption to work, the arms are one single piece.
Due to the width of the footbed, many customers who try Winderen stirrups realize they no longer need a traditional safety stirrup.
