Western Spurs For Boots - Horse Riding Spurs

Close to twenty spur and strap options, led by Metalab with Sprenger close behind. The Metalab range includes Hammerhead and Prince of Wales patterns; Sprenger's Ultra Fit line is the German maker's fitted design. Roller and round-end options cover horses that resent a fixed shank, and Dyon's leather spur straps finish the set properly. Every order leaves Ireland with US duty already collected, so the courier hands them over and asks for nothing.

Metalab and Sprenger, side by side

Metalab covers the classic patterns: the Hammerhead, the Prince of Wales, and humane-neck options for riders who want the leg cue without the point. Sprenger's Ultra Fit spurs are its more engineered take. Between the two makers, plus single options from Dyon, Lami-Cell and Walsh, the page covers jumping, dressage and the show ring.

Straps matter more than riders admit

A good spur on a cracked nylon strap still slips. Dyon's leather spur straps are cut to last and to match the rest of a leather-heavy tack trunk. If you are showing, plain black or havana leather straps read correctly in a US hunter or equitation ring, where quiet, traditional turnout is the standard.

From Tipperary to your tack trunk

Equijump ships from Thurles, County Tipperary, in Ireland. DHL Express brings spurs to a US address in 3 to 5 business days, fully tracked, and spurs are light enough to sit in the lowest shipping bracket. US import duty and any applicable state sales tax are collected at checkout under DDP; there is no charge on delivery. Returns are accepted within 30 days of delivery in original condition. Change-of-mind return shipping is at your cost, and duty paid to US Customs is not refundable.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of riding spurs do you stock?

We carry Metalab as the anchor brand for stainless and rubber-coated spurs across rounded, rowel, hammerhead and soft-touch patterns. We also stock Equijump Ltd own-brand Prince of Wales spurs, plus spur straps from Dyon, Walsh, Lami-Cell and Metalab to pair with any spur.
How do I choose the right spur length?

A short shank suits sensitive horses, pony riders, or anyone moving up from no spurs. A medium shank is the everyday default for adult riders. A longer shank gives more reach for tall riders or horses that respond best to a clearer cue. Start short and lengthen only if you genuinely need more.
What is the difference between rounded, Prince of Wales and roller spurs?

Rounded (or "ball end") spurs have a smooth-ended shank - the gentlest pattern, used for everyday flatwork and for riders new to spurs. Prince of Wales spurs have a flat, slightly squared end - the show-ring standard, slightly more direct than rounded. Roller spurs (rowel pattern) have a rotating wheel at the end of the shank - more pronounced, used for horses that need a clearer leg cue.
Are spurs allowed in competition?

Most show jumping, hunter and dressage classes allow spurs at most levels. Specific patterns (long shanks, sharp rowels) are restricted in some classes - always check the rule book before competing. Pony classes typically restrict spur length more strictly than adult classes.
Which spur brands do you carry?

Metalab covers most patterns at sensible price points. Equijump Ltd own-brand Prince of Wales spurs are the value choice. For specialist patterns from Sprenger and other top-tier German makers, see our specialised bits collection (Sprenger spurs are mixed in there); for everyday spurs, this collection covers the range.
How should I introduce a young rider to spurs?

Start with a short, soft-touch spur (Metalab Soft Touch Horizontal or rubber-coated) and an anti-slip nylon strap. The young rider should ride with the spur in place but not actively use it for several weeks - the goal is to first ensure the spur doesn't accidentally cue the horse before the rider learns to use it deliberately.
