Each pair features stunning German silver floral overlays that are handcrafted for a classic, show-ready aesthetic, making them as beautiful as they are functional for the discerning Western rider.Key Features & Specifications: Frequently Asked Questions:Q: Are these spurs suitable for a beginner or novice rider?A: Yes. The short shank and blunted rowel design are specifically intended to be "soft," which significantly reduces the risk of accidental over-cueing while a rider is still developing consistent leg position.Q: How do I ensure these spurs fit my specific riding boots?A: These spurs feature a standard 3/4" band designed for adult Western boots. Because they are made of genuine steel rather than brittle alloys, you can carefully adjust the width by hand or with a tool to achieve a snug, no-slip fit.Q: What is the best way to maintain the antique finish?A: To prevent the natural patina of polished steel, simply wipe the spurs with a dry cloth after use. For the German silver overlays, an occasional cleaning with a silver polishing cloth will maintain their brilliant, high-end shine.Item Number/SKU: AVSP-401
