Looking for some lightweight stirrups for my dressage saddle, I have Royal Riders on my jump saddles which I love but want something a little less chunky/ more elegant as on a pony. Anything which benefits backs/ankles even better.

Currently have Mountain Horse QRS Quick Release Stirrup Irons on my dressage saddle not entirely sure why but they are a heavier than I want and I'm not their biggest fan.

Very aware some people will say lightweight stirrups aren't as safe, I know this but I've found the lightweights easier to keep my foot in than the heavyweights which also hurt my ankles. Previously had Stubbed offsets on and also heavier than what id like.

I have a reasonable budget anything around 50/60ish but not going to buy a stirrup just for fashion.
 
I have jins which are slightly more but IMO worth it. I have them because they are so light (and pretty!!)
 
I LOVE compositi!!! The grip on them is good & my foot stays in place better:) would highly recomend, cheap and can also be different colours of treads!x
