Leaning Oak Leathercraft

History
Leaning Oak Leathercraft was inspired by years of 'horsing around'. From trail riding in Virginia as a child with his mother, to cowboying on farms in Texas, Michael's years on the back of a horse have given him a unique perspective to saddle making and repair. He focuses on building saddles that are not only safe and comfortable, but also speak to the essence of the relationship between rider and horse. Leaning Oak Leathercraft's commitment to high quality, stylish design will provide you with a saddle that will last a lifetime - for you and your horse.

Philosophy
Thoughtful design and exceptional craftsmanship don't just happen. It takes skill, patience and dedication to rise to the challenge. That's where we come in.

Methodology
Using only the highest quality leathers and design materials, we design and build our saddles to serve you and your champion for a lifetime. With careful attention paid to the nuances of your riding style and individual taste, we ensure the finest components and safest techniques are used to build our saddles. Rigorous analysis of your needs starts with measuring your horse and discussing your needs, ensuring true custom work.
