Also known as: 鐙
Stirrups are ring-shaped footholds that hang by straps from each side of a Saddle. They improve one's ability to mount a riding animal and stay in the saddle.
For hosiery that has stirrup-like loops across the wearer's soles but leaves the heel and toes exposed, see Stirrup Legwear.
For the braces that support the patient's legs during a pelvic examination, see Gynecology Chair.
