Rankin Saddles & Tack
Welcome, Visitor!
I carefully design a saddle to fit both the horse and rider that it is made for. I use Superior
saddle trees, the finest cuts of Hermann Oak™ leather and quality Bork hardware. The cost for a base saddle at this time is $2,395.00. With the rising costs of premium leather, this price is subject to change. There are so many varying factors to be considered when making a saddle that I prefer to have a consultation with the buyer to determine all the particulars prior to quoting a price. Shown also on this page for viewing are headstalls, breast collars, spur straps and hobbles. Prices reflect what the item
sells for as shown. Many varying factors can affect cost of these items also.

*Color of natural oiled finished items may vary from piece to piece due to the nature of leather. I cannot guarantee an exact match in color to items pictured on this site.
