Answer:

Irons are stirrups and iron straps are the leather straps that attatch the irons to your saddle.

Irons are usually called stirrup irons (so yes, the stirrups) and the straps are called stirrup leathers (which is the part that attaches your stirrups to the saddle).

Irons are the same thing as stirrups just a different name. Iron straps are like stirrup leathers. They're the same EXACT thing just different names. Have a nice day. To the person above me, ok don't call her stupid she had a question, alot of people don't know what irons and iron straps are.
