Which Sprenger Stirrups?

[Shoei]

Evening,

Could anyone give me their opinions on the best Sprenger stirrups. I am mostly after them to ease my much abused knees (that sounds quite bad when I type that) but the safety feature is also a big sell as I have a very panicky OH.

They will mostly be used for general riding, schooling, hacking etc but also x country and hunting.

Any opinions welcome.

Thanks

I have the bent leg ones and love them. Use them for hacking, schooling and jumping

I didn't like them, sold them and have gone back to the system 4's as the tread is narrower and my leg position isn't forced.

I have 2 pairs of System 4s and would have another when I buy a dressage saddle too.

They are brilliant - I had the fake ones for ages before deciding to treat myself to Sprengers, and they are hugely different and it's such a big improvement. I have the Bow Balance ones, haven't tried the others so can't compare, but am very happy with them.
