Our saddles are handmade one at a time by Julia McCormack.

Our philosophy is that a saddle must first-and-foremost fit the horse (the right tree), and secondly fit the rider (a comfortable seat). After that, the "upholstery" is all icing on the cake.

For ready-to-buy saddles, we make what we like most: the buckaroo old-time all-day saddle, small round skirts with a 3/4 spider rig, all-leather ground seat, wide-tread wood stirrups, a tall, narrow horn , half-leathers for the fenders, and medium weight leather, all of which make a lighter saddle built on a very sturdy wood/rawhide Rod Nikkel tree that will last more than a lifetime.

Saddle prices start at $2500 for a completely plain (no tooling) saddle. To that you can add extras such as tooling or silver conchos.
