Pessoa Hammerhead Spurs
The Pessoa Hammerhead Spurs, designed by Metalab, are highly sought after for their unique black rubber grip that secures the spurs in place. This rubber not only stabilizes the spurs but also safeguards your costly riding boots.
The “S” eyelets on the Pessoa Spurs prevent the straps from slipping, ensuring the spurs remain ideally positioned on the ankle, which minimizes pressure points.
Crafted from stainless steel, Pessoa spurs resist rust, while the boot protector and spur grip are made of robust, long-lasting rubber.
Pressure spots can cause discomfort for the rider, potentially leading to sores in the Achilles area. This can aggravate the zip area, resulting in significant discomfort.
Achilles Tendon Rubs
For those suffering from sore or injured Achilles tendons due to boots or spurs, consider the innovative Achilles Gel Sock from Kentucky Horsewear, designed specifically for such injuries.
The Achilles Gel Sock, a competitive riding sock, features gel padding strategically placed to alleviate pain for riders with Achilles issues.
It’s important to remember that a spur is a tool used in riding to prompt a horse to move laterally or forward. It’s typically used in conjunction with voice commands to ensure the horse’s responsiveness.
Notably, spurs should never be used as punishment, especially with the implementation of the Blood Rule in recent years. To provide additional protection for the horse’s flank, many riders now opt for our superior spur guards. These guards or belly bandages are permitted in competitions.
Sizes available include 15mm, 20mm, and 30mm, in both Large and Medium.
