Two Ellipse stirrups in charcoal with silver foot plates

The challenge

Design a stirrup for the Compositi Performance range, with special attention to show jumpers.

Our solution

This model has a flexible outer arm, so the foot can easily be released from the stirrup in a fall. While the spikes give excellent grip, the cushioned foot plates absorb shocks for a more comfortable ride. The removable covers allow personalisation for specific riding disciplines.

The product was developed in close collaboration between Compositi, Philippe Swimberghe and Cides.

Cross-pollination is not a side effect of what we do, it is part of how we work.
