"I got myself some plain, inexpensive flexible stirrups. The flex helped, but I was still having pain in my knee where I had my meniscus removed. It was like the supporting muscles in my knee were being fatigued by the slight pressure to turn a regular stirrup outwards and it would be sore for a day or two after a long, hard hunt. I borrowed these and was shocked at the difference having not just the flex, but also the extra wide foot bed and the adjustible tops made to my foot and knee comfort. To top it all off, I lost a stirrup doing a complicated ditch crossing onto a road and was able to slip my foot back in a lot faster. I can't recommend them enough, they are worth every penny. As my friend with restless leg syndrome said, "I spent a lot of money and time on a new saddle and new boots to make my legs not hurt, when changing my stirrups was all I needed to do.""

"I have had these stirrups for a year and a half now. After ten hours of riding in them at a recent endurance ride, my feet would eventually lose some sensation... feel that a closed-cell foam pad on them might help. Need to addess this before the next endurance ride - hopefully the Cashel foam pads will fit these. Otherwise, they're fab for shorter (3-4 hr) conditioning rides. They've helped with my knee/ankle pain."

"I absolutely love these stirrups. I have been having ankle pain when riding in my jump saddle, and these stirrups completely solve the problem! My leg remained solid and relaxed, pain free! I tried them on my dressage saddle, also... and I really enjoyed the results. I set them on the 90 degree setting, and that paired with the super grip really allowed my leg to fall naturally around my horse. In normal stirrups, my heel tends to come up when I apply my leg. Not so with the super sports! Looks like I might need 2 pairs!"

"I have always had pain, tension or stress in my ankles, knees and hips riding. I would brace in my stirrups and it would cause me to lock up. I figured why get these when I just need to stop bracing... boy was I wrong! When I rode in these stirrups it felt like my legs where feathers and I finally found alignment without brace in my body. Best most comfortable ride I have ever had! Worth every penny and so upset I didn't get them sooner and saved my ankles all the trouble they had before.
I love the wide pad (thought I wouldn't) and I love, love, love the jointed action in the stirrups. It really saves my ankles and the twisting top helps my knees and toes point straight and free."

"I've been dealing with the last two toes on my right foot going numb while riding for awhile now. I tried the stirrups, and no more numbness! And to top it off, my hips didn't hurt after my ride! I didn't rate durability since I just got them, but they seem very sturdy."

"I just had to ride that day I received them in the mail & my knees, ankles felt great! It was a 2.5 hr ride. They look very well constructed, solid, but I only rode with them 3 times & didn't want to give them a 5 star durability unless I had them longer"
