FAQs

Are these spurs available in other colors?

Yes, John Whitaker International also offers these spurs in Red.

What is the primary material used?

These spurs are constructed from durable nylon with a soft-touch coating.

Will these damage my leather boots?

No, the soft-touch nylon coating is designed to be gentle and significantly less abrasive than traditional metal spurs.

Can I use these for competition?

Yes, they are suitable for general use, but always check your specific governing body's rulebook regarding spur types and materials for competition.

How do I clean them?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away debris. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

Troubleshooting

Spurs rotating on the boot

Ensure the heel area of your boot is clean and free of polish residue, as this can reduce the effectiveness of the ribbed grip.

Difficulty sliding onto the boot

Gently warm the nylon band slightly or ensure the boot heel is dry to allow for a smoother transition during fitting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Ribbed inner lining prevents slippage
  • Soft-touch coating is gentle on equipment
  • Lightweight construction for comfort
  • High-quality craftsmanship by John Whitaker International

Cons

  • Material feel differs from traditional metal
  • Not suitable for riders preferring heavy-weight spurs
  • Specific maintenance required for nylon surfaces

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure optimal performance, slide the spurs onto the heel of your riding boots, ensuring the ribbed section sits flush against the boot material. These are designed to be compatible with most standard English riding boots. For maintenance, wipe the spurs down with a damp cloth after each ride to remove arena dust or sweat. Avoid using harsh chemical cleaners or stiff wire brushes, as these may damage the nylon coating. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve the integrity of the material.
