   On occasion it is necessary to shorten you stirrups even when you are already at the last hole available in your stirrup leathers. If you are in a pinch and don't have a hole punch readily available to you, rolling your stirrups can be a quick and easy solution to hold you over temporarily. Follow the picture step by step instructions below and feel free to ask any questions!

Start by pulling your stirrup leather buckle down away from the saddle.
Unbuckle the stirrup leather.

Fully separate both pieces from each other.
Take the end with the metal buckle and loop it through the stirrup.

​This should create a twist around the top branch of the stirrup.
​Rebuckle the stirrup leather.

I usually find that rolling stirrups is the equivilant of shortening your stirrups by two holes.
