{"product_id":"stirrup-hoops","title":"Stirrup Hoops","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe stirrup shape mimics the form of traditional equestrian stirrups, with a rounded, gently curved bottom, creating a graceful silhouette. The hoops are medium-sized, 1\" long and .75\" wide, making them versatile enough to be worn for both casual outings and more formal occasions. The surface of the earrings features a hand-stamped design that adds depth and interest. They hang gracefully from secure, comfortable French hooks, perfect for anyone who appreciates a unique twist on a classic hoop design. These are available in sterling silver or bronze.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFun Fact: These earrings were inspired by bronc riding champion Fannie Sperry Steele. \u003cmeta charset=\"UTF-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eFannie became known for refusing to use a hobbled stirrup — the device that essentially locked a rider's feet in place and made staying on a bucking bronc significantly easier and safer. She insisted on riding with free stirrups, riding \"slick\", the same way the men competed, which was considered far more difficult and dangerous. She won the Ladies' Bucking Horse Championship at the 1912 Calgary Stampede riding slick, and it was a point of fierce personal pride — she felt hobbled stirrups were a cheat and she wanted no part of them.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cowboy's Sweetheart Jewelry","offers":[{"title":"Sterling Silver","offer_id":44224100794477,"sku":null,"price":140.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Bronze","offer_id":44224100827245,"sku":null,"price":114.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0667\/2138\/2509\/files\/Shop_Sterling_Silver_Stirrup_Hoops_2.jpg?v=1771825669","url":"https:\/\/cowboys-sweetheart.com\/products\/stirrup-hoops","provider":"Cowboy's Sweetheart","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
