Balkenhol spurs for men with Balkenhol fastening - German Silver highly polished, 40 mm rounded

The innovative design of the loop for the spur straps was not named after the well-known riding master Klaus Balkenhol for nothing. We have developed this special loop with his expertise. It is designed for everyday use with your horse - for a secure and comfortable fit. How does it work? The Balkenhol loop has a smaller strap eyelet and an outwardly flared center bar. This allows the spur strap to be guided past the inside of the boot. No pressure, no slipping - no problem!

In order to offer the optimum solution for every horse, our round spur wheels are available in different versions. While the smaller ball wheels with their small diameter and narrow shape act more selectively, the pressure is distributed more evenly with the larger ball wheels. At the same time, the smooth surface of the wheel ensures a lower degree of impact than with serrated wheels, for example. Sounds complicated? Then here's our recommendation: the ball wheels are ideal if you want a little more impact than with rounded spurs.

A question of size? But yes: If you are rather short and have shorter legs, the distance between your thigh and the horse's belly is usually smaller. In this case, we generally recommend slightly shorter spurs. However, if you are tall and have long legs, slightly longer spurs are usually more suitable. Then your thigh can lie quite still, although the distance to the horse's belly may be slightly greater.
