We start every custom Wade saddle by focusing on the rider, not the template. We take your measurements, your horse’s build, and the work you do, then shape a saddle around all three. The deep Wade horn, wide fork, and closed-in front give you the strength and stability ranch work demands. No two orders leave the shop the same.
Handmade Wade saddles aren’t stitched together on a line. Each one is built by hand, tree to tooling, using leather that’s chosen and cut for the job it’ll do. That means tighter joints, cleaner lines, and a saddle that holds its shape after years in the saddle instead of breaking down after one hard season.
We stand behind every stitch. If something needs adjusting once you’ve ridden it in, we make it right. That’s the difference between buying a custom saddle and investing in one. A handmade Wade model saddle earns its keep for decades, not seasons, and it only gets better with wear.
