Fairhaven Children’s Stirrup Leathers: Practical Performance for Junior Riders
Sized for Kids. Built for Daily Use.
The Fairhaven Children’s Stirrup Leathers are designed specifically for the next generation of equestrians. Part of the dependable Fairhaven Collection by Bobby’s English Tack, these leathers offer a professional appearance and a tailored 48" length that eliminates the bulk of excess leather under a young rider's leg.
Why They’re the Perfect Choice for Kids:
-
Junior-Specific 48" Length: Specifically sized for children and pony saddles, ensuring a clean look without the need to wrap or tuck long, trailing ends.
-
Single-Ply Genuine Leather: Crafted from rugged, unlined leather that provides maximum durability for daily schooling. The unstitched design offers a close-contact feel, helping young riders maintain a steady leg position.
-
Precision 1" Hole Increments: Features closely spaced, hand-finished holes for easy and precise adjustments—essential for growing legs and swapping between flatwork and jumping lengths.
-
Low-Maintenance Hardware: Equipped with polished, rust-resistant nickel-finish hardware that slides easily through saddle stirrup bars and sits flat under the rider's thigh.
-
Ready to School: These leathers are designed to soften quickly with oil while resisting the stretching and wear common with synthetic alternatives.

"Save Your Show Tack" Tip:
Young riders are often hard on their gear! Using these Fairhaven Children’s Leathers for daily lessons and barn work allows you to save your expensive, calfskin-lined show leathers for competition days. They provide the professional look of Bobby's English Tack at a price point that makes sense for growing kids.
To help parents and trainers choose the correct size for junior riders, here is a quick guide to selecting the right length from the Fairhaven collection.
Fairhaven Stirrup Leather Size Guide
| Rider Height / Use | Recommended Length | Product Choice |
| Pony Riders / Children | 48" (122 cm) | Children’s Stirrup Leathers |
| Average Adult / Teen | 54" (137 cm) | Adult Stirrup Leathers |
| Tall Adult / Dressage | 60" (152 cm) | Fairhaven Tall Leathers |
How to Measure for the Perfect Fit:
-
The "Arm" Test: Hold the stirrup leather buckle at your child's underarm and pull the leather taut. The stirrup iron should reach their fingertips.
-
Account for Growth: Our 48" Children's Leathers are designed with 1" hole increments to allow for precise adjustments as young riders grow.
-
Eliminate Bulk: Choosing the 48" length for a child prevents having to "wrap" excess leather around the stirrup bar, which can be bulky and uncomfortable under a small rider's leg.
