OK about attaching english stirrups. Shoud the buckle be toward the horse or facing out toward the flap?

Answer 1

Facing the flap.

Answer 2

facing toward the flappppp

Answer 3

The buckle should be facing the flap. So when your on the horse you can pull the strap down and re adjust it, some pictures on wikipedia.com or google could help

Good luck

Answer 4

facing out that way if someone else uses your saddle and adjusts the iron lengths you can just litteraly pick up the leather and change it while mounted. I've had to do it nearly a dozen times

Answer 5

facing the flap

Answer 6

The buckles on stirrup leathers need to face OUT, or you will never be able to adjust your stirrups up or down.
