Bates Stock Stirrup LeathersBates Stock Stirrup Leathers are designed to complement your Bates Kimberley Saddle and feature the customary 1 1 4 inch width with a superior webbing core for added strength. A traditional sleeve enables you to ride with the buckle near the stirrup iron. Due to the more relaxed riding position of a stock saddle, with the rider's lower leg in a more forward position, it is usually more comfortable to utilise traditionally designed stirrup leathers.
