Imported Tack


Obtaining genuine North American tack: saddles, bridles, bits, halters, and accessories, is not easy in Europe. We have contacts to breeders and supplies in North America and can occassionally import tack based on your specific needs. We cannot guarantee that we will be able to supply tack immediately, however if you have a specific wish for something special or original, we can work with you to organize the purchase and shipment of particular items depending on our season and import schedule.

Natural Horsemanship Tack

We are able to import Natural Horsemanship supplies almost at any time. Whether you wish to purchase rope halters, hackamores, reins, or leads, we can provide you with a large selection of colors. If you wish something a little more fancy for show, we also can import leads with shoe-flies and halters with extra details. The color selection is vast, as are the rope thicknesses for halters and leads. Please contact us for more information.

Saddles, pads, bridles and bits

A few times a year we are able to bring over tack from North America. We have contacts in North America which have access to auctions, saddlery shops, and private parties offering used, high quality tack for sale. We offer a personal service, asking our contacts to search out a saddle or tack to your requirements and help you select the best choice by offering photos and information. Some examples of the tack made available to us are shown below. Presently, the possibility of bringing one more saddle is open to us. If you are in the market for bridles with sewn stiching, curb bits or other Western tack, please contact us for more infomation. Please note, as we only bring tack over a few times a year, this service is based on availability and our season. If you desperately want something, we can work with you to bring tack over, however postage will be more costly.

Examples of used Canadian Western saddles we have had access to:


From left to right: 1) child's saddle, 2) general purpose saddle with silver, 3) 1960's antique custom made F. Eamor saddle completely tooled, 4) F. Eamor saddle with tooling, 5) custom hand-made Tall Horses saddle with extensive silver trim.

Examples of used Western saddles in Montana:

Cowboy roping saddles are made for long hard hours working in the saddle. Entirely handmade, with deep seats, Monel stirrups, rawhide covered roping trees, and slick forks Natural Horsemanship style. These saddles are tough rugged and handbuilt roping saddles for cowboys that work several colts and require practical saftey features. If you are serious about working with your horses in such a saddle, we can work with you to select and import a used (or new) saddle. This process takes time, and may require special ordering. Various arrangements for shipping are available depending on our season. And, prices can range between reasonable to very expensive. We do not import saddles in masses, we work with you on an individual basis to custom select and import the right saddle for you. These are a highly specialized saddles and are not for light riding. If you have an interest in such a saddle, please contact us.
