Tech Stirrups – Italian Innovation in Safety Stirrups

Tech Stirrups is an Italian brand that has been revolutionizing the world of equestrian stirrups since 2013, combining advanced technologies with ergonomic design and the highest safety standards. Founded by a team of engineers and passionate equestrian enthusiasts, Tech Stirrups has become synonymous with innovation, comfort, and reliable protection, offering stirrups that not only protect the rider but also improve their position and performance. At Equishop Store, we offer a full range of Tech Stirrups products, offering professional advice on selecting the perfect stirrups for every rider.

History – From Engineering to the Equestrian Revolution

The Tech Stirrups story began in 2013 in Italy, when a group of mechanical engineers and industrial designers decided to apply modern technologies and materials to create a new generation of stirrups. They noticed that traditional stirrups, despite years of evolution, still had fundamental flaws: they were heavy, stiff, offered insufficient cushioning, and failed to support the rider's foot correctly.

The Tech Stirrups team approached the subject from an engineering perspective, analyzing rider biomechanics, foot pressure distribution, shock absorption, and ergonomics. Working with professional riders, physical therapists, and orthopedists, they developed revolutionary solutions that changed the way we approach stirrup design.

The breakthrough came with the introduction of stirrups with advanced cushioning systems, ergonomic bases, and innovative composite materials. Tech Stirrups were the first to incorporate technologies known from the sports industry—spring systems, shock-absorbing materials, and ergonomic shapes based on biomechanical research.

Today, over 10 years later, Tech Stirrups is a global brand present in over 40 countries, whose stirrups are the choice of both amateur riders and elite Olympic athletes. The brand remains true to its mission: continuous innovation in the service of rider comfort, safety, and performance.

What Makes Tech Stirrups Different – ​​Innovations That Change Everything

1. Advanced Cushioning System

What sets Tech Stirrups apart is their revolutionary shock absorption system based on springs and elastomers. Unlike traditional, rigid stirrups, Tech Stirrups absorb shock and impact, reducing the load on the rider's joints by 30-50%.

• Protection of knees, hips and spine – cushioning reduces impacts transferred to joints during gallops, jumping and intense training
• Reduced fatigue – less strain means the rider can train longer without discomfort
• Injury prevention – especially important for riders recovering from injuries or with joint problems
• Rehabilitation support – many people who have suffered knee or hip injuries use Tech Stirrups as part of their return to riding

2. Ergonomic Base – Support for Correct Position

The Tech Stirrups stirrup base is ergonomically designed, with a slight inclination and shape that supports the natural foot position.

• Promotes heel-down positioning – ergonomic shape naturally encourages proper foot positioning
• Even pressure distribution – wide base distributes pressure across the entire foot, eliminating pressure points
• Arch Support – Slight bend supports the arch, reducing fatigue
• Improved balance – a stable base helps maintain balance and correct posture

3. Ultralight Construction

Tech Stirrups uses advanced materials – aircraft aluminum, composites and technical polyamides – to create stirrups that are exceptionally lightweight (300-400 grams per pair), yet incredibly durable.

• Reduced leg strain – lighter stirrups mean less fatigue
• Easier to maintain position – less weight makes it easier to control the stirrups
• Durability – despite being lightweight, the stirrups can withstand loads exceeding 300 kg

4. Safety - Opening Arm

Most Tech Stirrups models feature an opening side arm that releases the foot in the event of a fall, preventing entrapment.

• Automatic release – the arm opens when pressure is applied
• Adjustable sensitivity – ability to adjust the force required to open
• Easy to close – the arm closes easily again after a fall

5. Personalization and Style

Tech Stirrups offers stirrups in a wide range of colors and finishes, from classic black and silver to vibrant colors and metallic finishes. Interchangeable base inserts allow for additional personalization.

• Cushioning – Tech Stirrups: 30-50% impact reduction | Traditional: 0% (stiff, transmits all impacts)
• Weight – Tech Stirrups: 300-400g pair | Traditional: 600-800g pair
• Ergonomics – Tech Stirrups: ergonomic base for positional support | Traditional: flat base
• Safety – Tech Stirrups: Opening arm | Traditional: Closed (choke point risk)
