They weigh approximately 1.06 kg per pair.

Troubleshooting
Stirrup feels loose on stirrup leather.
Ensure the stirrup leather is threaded correctly and is not worn. Check if the stirrup leather has the appropriate width for the stirrup's eyelet.
Rubber sole losing grip.
Clean the rubber sole thoroughly with water and a brush to remove dirt and debris that may be affecting traction. Ensure the sole is completely dry.
Difficulty releasing foot.
Ensure the rubber ring and leather attachment are properly seated and not obstructed. Check that the stirrup leather is not twisted. In very rare cases, boot fit might be too tight for the stirrup's release mechanism.
