Handy spur structure

Abstract

A handy spur structure related to a continuation-in-part application of U.S. patent application Ser. No. 12/7261860 includes: a spur main body, which is a curved rigid body adapted to a configuration of a heel section of a rider's shoe/boot, the spur main body having at least one post outward protruding from a middle section of the spur main body; and a soft and elastic lining member disposed on a portion of an inner circumference of the spur main body that is closer to a lower edge thereof. Multiple recessed/raised anti-slip stripes are formed on a surface of the lining member. The junction face between the spur main body and the lining member is more approximately orthogonal to the direction of the action force when treading on a horse's belly, whereby the possibility of peeling of the lining member from the spur main body along the junction face is minimized.

Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
