Lorina Peacock Safety Irons - Pair

The Lorina Peacock Safety Irons are primarily designed for younger riders due to their specific safety release mechanism. While they offer safety benefits, more experienced adult riders might prefer stirrups with different release systems or without a release mechanism for more consistent feel.

The main advantage is that the rubber band is designed to release the rider's foot when under pressure, significantly reducing the risk of the rider being dragged if they fall.

The stirrups are available in 6 sizes. It is recommended to measure the widest part of your riding boot and choose the stirrup size that provides a comfortable and secure fit, typically allowing about 1/4 inch of space on either side of your boot.

Each pair comes complete with stirrup leathers and rubber rings, ready for attachment to your saddle.

It is advisable to inspect the rubber rings regularly, especially before each ride, for any signs of wear, cracking, or degradation. Replace them if they appear damaged to ensure the safety release functions correctly.

These safety stirrups are versatile and can be used for various riding disciplines, including general riding, schooling, and jumping. Their primary focus is on safety, making them particularly popular for training and for riders who may be less experienced.

Ensure the rubber band is clean and free of debris. Check for any obstructions in the mechanism. If the issue persists, the rubber band may need replacement.

Ensure the stirrup leather is threaded correctly through the top of the iron and that the iron is oriented properly. Adjust leather length as needed.

Verify that the rubber band is intact and correctly positioned. The mechanism relies on the integrity of this band. If the band is damaged or stretched, it will need to be replaced.

While stainless steel is resistant, prolonged exposure to moisture or salt can cause discoloration. Clean with a non-abrasive metal polish and dry thoroughly.
