Fine-tune your aids and communicate with precision using our selection of equestrian spurs. Designed for accuracy and effectiveness, these spurs are essential for riders of all levels.
At EquiJump, we recognise the specific needs of Irish riders — from amateur competitors on the local circuit to professional equestrians training year-round. Our collection of horse riding spurs has been carefully selected to help improve communication, refine leg aids, and support better balance without compromising comfort or control.
Whether you're schooling at home in Kildare or competing at events in Millstreet, the right pair of spurs can make all the difference.
Each spur in our collection is chosen for its ability to combine technical performance with equine sensitivity. Polished stainless steel, non-slip coatings, and ergonomic shaping allow for effective yet subtle cues — a must for disciplines like show jumping or dressage. Riders favour models such as the Sprenger Ultra Fit Extra Grip Spurs for their boot protection and bendable arms, while the Metalab Prince of Wales Spurs offer a secure grip and classic profile trusted by Irish professionals.
Combined with our premium spur straps, like the leather Dy’on model, you’ll get reliable contact and a refined finish in the ring.
Proper spur fit is essential to avoid discomfort or miscommunication. We advise Irish riders to position their spurs just above the heel of their boot, allowing for natural movement without needing exaggerated leg action. Adjustable spur straps help maintain positioning during longer sessions or competition rounds. For horses that are more sensitive, we recommend softer rowel options and to always test the fit in a safe schooling environment.
Wipe your spurs down after every ride to remove moisture and dirt, and check regularly for signs of rust or wear. For coated models, use a soft cloth and avoid harsh chemicals that may degrade the finish. Leather straps should be conditioned occasionally to maintain flexibility and prevent cracking, especially in damp Irish climates.
