English Spur Straps

English spur straps take a beating from boot heels, arena dirt and wet mornings. These are cut from pliable 1/2 in bridle leather that conforms to the boot instead of standing off it, so the strap sits where you put it and stays there through a long day in the irons.

Smoothed, darkened edges give them a clean, finished look, and the hardware is nickel plated. They come as a pair, so both heels match and you are not hunting down a single strap when one gives out.

Good to know

• Pair them with tall boots and half chaps for schooling and show day alike.
• Wipe off sweat and mud after a ride, then let the leather air out away from direct heat so it stays supple.
• A light coat of leather conditioner now and then keeps the edges from drying out.

Keep a spare pair in the tack trunk before show season gets here.
