Tapaderos are leather coverings attached to the front of stirrups on a saddle, primarily used in Western riding. Their purpose is to protect the rider's feet from brush, weather, and other elements while riding through rough terrain. Additionally, they help prevent the rider's foot from slipping through the stirrup, reducing the risk of being dragged in the event of a fall.
