Acavallo AluPlus Stirrup

New premium model of our patented, laterally opening Arena stirrups, completely made of certified high-grade anodized aluminum and fitted with a stainless steel tread. Acavallo has carefully chosen and combined the materials used, following detailed research and comprehensive testing.

The aluminum, besides giving the stirrup a sleek and elegant appearance, is lightweight and extremely durable, while the stainless steel protects the tread from corrosion, guaranteeing a long life of the product, too. The opening of the stress-actuated locking and release mechanism is located a centimeter higher from the tread to ensure that the foot cannot slip out laterally by mistake and to prevent sand and dirt from delaying the opening action of the arm in case of an emergency.

Long holes in the tread prevent sand and dirt accumulations so that the gripping effect is not compromised and a five degree inclination of the tread helps riders to assume the correct posture, relieving tension in their ankles, calves, knees and hips.

Mattes Half Lined Square Saddle Pad (with logo) 2 pocket correction

Once you’ve tried it you’ll never want to be without lambskin skin ever again. The MATTES half-pad is always a good choice, for general riding, dressage or show jumping. Mattes has been known for its high quality lambskin products for a century and a half.

Why choose lambskin:

• Breathable structure: The open wool fibres allow air to circulate freely, preventing heat build-up — unlike neoprene.

• Year-round comfort: Naturally regulates temperature, keeping horses cool in summer and warm in winter.

• Highly absorbent: Can hold up to eight times its own weight in moisture before feeling damp.

• Pressure distribution: Upright wool fibres distribute pressure evenly, reducing rubbing and chafing as the fibres glide smoothly against the horse’s coat.

• Antibacterial properties: Natural proteins in the wool help inhibit bacterial growth.

• Supports muscle development: The flexible structure of the lambskin allows the horse’s muscles to move and develop freely.

• Durable and washable: Designed for long-term use — fully machine washable with MELP detergent and suitable for tumble drying.

• Special tanning process: Our washable tanning method maintains the lambskin’s function and longevity, unlike others that recommend brushing only.
