Shop 400+ new & used saddles and quality tack, all while supporting a business that gives back to our horse community. Saddle Up Western Saddle & Tack Shop — Family-Owned Since 1997 🤠

We’re a family business through and through, and honestly? Saddle Up started back in 1996 as Dick’s “retirement hobby” (you know how those go), and in 2009 his daughter Danna joined the ride. Fast-forward to today and we’ve got 200+ new and used saddles in stock — and the lineup changes daily. If you don’t see your perfect match today, check back tomorrow… it just might roll in!

⭐ Our Upgrade Program

Horses aren’t cheap — we get it. So we created a program that helps riders start where they’re comfortable and level up when the time is right. Here’s the deal: start with a quality saddle that fits your horse and your budget. When you're ready to upgrade, bring it back and we’ll take it in on trade less 30% toward a higher-priced saddle (new or used from our inventory — consignment excluded). It’s the perfect way to ease into riding, try different fits, or finally make the jump to your dream saddle.

🐴 Buying, Selling, Trading & Consigning

We’re always on the lookout for good, well-loved tack and saddles, and so are our customers. Bring yours in — we buy, trade, and consign every day.

Whether you’re local or scrolling from the barn, we’re here to help you find exactly what you need. Call or email us — odds are, we’ve got it in the shop. Thanks for riding with us,

Sunday Saddle Feature 🤎
This week we’re featuring W256-1026, a NEW McCall McLite Western Wade Saddle. You get that classic Wade look without quite so much saddle to hoist onto your horse!

This saddle features all rough-out leather in a medium oil finish, paired with a black padded bicycle seat and simple 2-line border tooling. Leather rosettes and saddle strings keep the look traditional, while the rounded skirts and McLite construction help keep the overall weight down to approximately 22 lbs.
Saddle Details:
• 14.5" finished seat
• Regular tree
• 6.5" gullet, measured mid-concho to mid-concho
• 24.5" skirt
• Approx. 22 lbs.
• 4" cantle
• 3" horn
• 2-way leather in-skirt rigging
• Includes horn wrap, rope strap & rear cinch

Regular Price: $3,365
🍂 And don’t forget, ALL new McCall saddles are $200 OFF now through October 31!

That brings this Wade down to $3,165 during the sale.

Come check out W256-1026 in person at Saddle Up or find it on our website!
As always, measurements are provided as a reference. Saddle fit depends on much more than gullet width alone.

When checking saddle fit, we recommend evaluating the saddle before cinching it down. In this quick demonstration, we explain why.

Once a saddle is cinched tightly onto the horse’s back, that pressure can make it much harder to get your hands underneath the saddle and accurately feel what is happening along the bars. This can make it difficult to properly evaluate contact, pressure, bridging, and how the saddle is actually sitting on the horse’s back.

Checking the saddle uncinched allows us to get our hands underneath, follow the tree along the horse’s back, and get a much clearer picture of how the saddle is making contact.

Cinching is important when it’s time to ride, but when we’re evaluating the initial fit, we want to be able to feel what the saddle is doing without cinch pressure getting in the way.

🐴 Saddle fit is about more than how a saddle looks from the outside. Sometimes your hands can tell you what your eyes can’t!
