Bates Webbers - any good?

[arizonahoney]

I'm thinking of buying a pair to go on my GP saddle. Interested to hear if people reckon they're worth the money as opposed to normal stirrup leathers.

I love them

All my cobs are really wide. I find there is less 'bulk' under my leg and gives me better contact with my saddle.

Highly recommended

I have some for my dressage saddle. Love them.

However they are not recommended for jumping as they are not deemed safe for that purpose.

Good to hear. I may just go and buy some. I am really short - 5' - so probably I'll need the shortest ones?

Yep, I am 5'2 and I needed the shortest size.

I love my Webbers too, highly recommend them. Didn't realise they weren't recommended for jumping though, not that I do jump very often I hasten to add!
