Balotade® Pro – the jumping version , are premium leather stirrup leathers designed for intense sports riding, especially show jumping. Made of exceptionally soft, yet highly durable buffalo leather , they are reinforced with nylon stitching to withstand the demands of everyday use.
Comfort and precision in every jump
A special design with the buckle relocated from the buckle to the stirrup eliminates the pressure on the thigh that often occurs with classic models. This allows the rider to have greater freedom and better contact with the horse , which directly translates into better jumping performance.
Protecting delicate saddles
The soft, smooth leather used in the Pro model is an ideal solution for saddles made from more delicate materials. It minimizes the risk of abrasion where the stirrup leathers meet, while maintaining high tensile strength and resistance to intensive use.

You can put on the jumping stirrup leathers in any way you like, depending on your preferences. However, the most popular solution is to place the buckle at the bottom, on the horse's side. This way, it won't touch your leg and cause discomfort.
The Classic and Pro harnesses differ primarily in the texture of the material from which they are made. The Classic model is made of smooth leather, which gives it an elegant look and ensures sturdiness. This smooth leather, while durable, can be less flexible. The Pro sleds, on the other hand, are made of lined leather, which significantly increases their softness and flexibility. The extra layer of padding makes these reins better cushion the pressure on the rider's foot, resulting in greater comfort while riding. Thanks to the use of lined leather, the Pro model offers better abrasion protection and greater comfort, making it more suitable for intensive use.
The choice of appropriate stirrup leathers depends on the type of saddle and the material from which the flap is made. Classic stirrup leathers, made of smooth leather, are best used in combination with saddles that have a smooth flap. This ensures an optimal fit and minimizes the risk of damage to the saddle material.
In the case of saddles with a soft, padded flap, it is recommended to choose Pro stirrup leathers, which are made of padded leather. Thanks to their softness and elasticity, Pro stirrup leathers work better with such flaps, which reduces the risk of them wearing out.
In summary, if you have a smooth flap saddle, Classic stirrup leathers will be a good choice. However, if you have a soft flap saddle, Pro stirrup leathers are the way to go to ensure comfort and protection for both the rider and the equipment.
All of our stirrup leathers are made of natural, high-quality buffalo leather, which gives them exceptional durability and aesthetics. Buffalo leather is known for its resistance to damage and elasticity, making it an ideal material for the production of equestrian equipment.
However, stirrup leathers differ in the way the leather is processed, which affects their functional properties.
Before using stirrup leathers for the first time, it is important to prepare them properly, which will help increase their durability and comfort of use. Here are the steps to follow:
- Cleaning: Before you start maintenance, make sure the stirrup leathers are clean. To do this, wipe them with a damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid excessive wetting of the leather so as not to weaken its structure.
- Oiling: After thoroughly cleaning the stirrup leathers, they should be oiled with a special leather care product. This is an important step because new leather is not yet elastic and requires additional moisture. Use an oil or balm designed for leather, avoiding edible oils, which can go rancid and destroy the material from the inside.
- Absorption: After applying the product, leave the stirrup leathers for a moment to allow the product to penetrate the skin. Then remove excess product with a clean cloth.
- Drying: Stirrup leathers should be dried at room temperature, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Improper drying can lead to cracking and damage to the material.
- Regular maintenance: Remember that after first use and during regular use of your stirrup leathers, regular cleaning and maintenance is recommended to keep the leather in good condition.
With these steps, you can ensure that your stirrup leathers last for a long time and are comfortable to ride in. Regular care will also help protect the leather from sweat and moisture, which is especially important when riding equipment is used intensively.
