Oh my days

is there a left and right on these?
And which way around do they go - as in which way to thread them onto the leather.

because I have been riding with them for YEARS and I have now convinced myself I’ve somehow got them on wrong. If that is even possible?!!

im not telling you which way I have them until I’ve got some replies ?

@milliepops im sure you use these too???

I do
I have them so that when they hang in riding position, the angled edge is facing the back of the horse. Does that make sense? I can take a pic if not

Thank you for your reply! Yes pic please

I feel that they don’t “hang” right which means they are angled wrong when the ball of my foot is on the tread. I never lose them and if I do, they are so easy to find again which makes me think that i can’t be wrong and it’s just my dodgy ankles making my foot angle all off!!

Thanks MP - I’ve got the anatomic ones so that the widest part of tread is facing you when stirrups are hanging down flat against the horse and the logo on front is towards horse. Then as you pop your feet in the logo should face forwards.

There is also a left and right stirrup ? I think this is with the JS logo closest to the horse
