• Stainless steel

• Spur position

The spur is placed just above the heel, centered at the back of the boot. The shank should be horizontal, pointing backwards, without pointing down or out. A well-positioned spur acts with a slight ankle movement, without lifting the heel or stiffening the leg.

• Attaching the strap

Thread the strap through the eyelets of the spur, then fasten it on the outside of the boot. The strap should be adjusted firmly but without tightness, to prevent the spur from turning while allowing the ankle freedom of movement. A strap that is too tight will restrict the ankle; if it's too loose, the spur becomes imprecise.

• For a precise action

Spurs are a subtle and momentary aid, reserved for riders with a stable leg. They should never cause continuous pressure.

The real secret to spurs that last and remain precise? Keep them clean and well-adjusted.

After each session, take 30 seconds to wipe them down: sand, mud, or moisture quickly attacks the metal and strap. A damp cloth is enough.
For a deeper clean, use a little mild soap and a fine brush to remove dirt ingrained in the gears or teeth.

Pro tip: always dry them completely before storing them, and regularly check the straps that secure them. Nothing ruins a spur more than moisture left in the metal. And most importantly: adjust them correctly. Too loose = shaking and noise, too tight = discomfort for both horse and rider. Spurs should slide slightly on the boot without rotating.

In short: quick wipe after use, regular gentle cleaning, complete drying, and perfect adjustment. With this, your spurs will remain precise, safe, and comfortable.
