    We build fine custom, handcrafted saddles and many handcrafted tack items for every western discipline. However, our primary focus, as a saddle maker, is on you, our customer and the user of our product.  Each saddle we build is individually handcrafted with one type of buyer in mind. . . the discriminating horseman or horsewoman who demands the very best for themselves and insists on the best of equipment for their horses.

    We have the greatest respect and admiration for our forefathers who paved the way for modern horsemanship.  We have tried to learn from their ancient techniques but adapt to the evolutionary changes each discipline has brought to the modern performance horse. We are well aware that ONE SIZE DOES NOT FIT ALL, whether you are talking about horses or riders.  As modern breeding programs tweak the conformation of their performance animals to perform well in their respective disciplines the Jerry Shaw Custom Saddle is also an evolutionary process.  We strive diligently to listen attentively and carefully to the needs, wants and desires of those we serve before a saddle’s construction is begun. As your needs change our designs and methods will change to accommodate your requirements.

    

We firmly believe that UTILITY and BEAUTY can co-exist in perfect harmony in the western saddle.  We try to combine unbridled beauty, unequalled quality of materials and workmanship, and the latest in style and class with unparalleled comfort for the horse and rider.  Each saddle is painstakingly crafted to achieve that perfect balance of form and function without sacrificing beauty. Although BEAUTIFUL doesn’t equate to BETTER, we’ve found that it doesn’t hurt for a saddle to be uniquely and distinctively gorgeous while being perfectly serviceable. We want our customers to ride with pride. 

Above all, though, our goal is QUALITY not QUANTITY and every aspect of our saddles is an example of un-compromised quality.  Just as the code of the cowboy in the Old West was to “always protect the brand” he rode for, each saddle that leaves our shop wears our brand, (my name) and is an ambassador of our reputation as a saddle maker.  Each is permanently stamped with my name and represents us in the arenas, the trails and the pastures for generations to come. For that reason, the quality goes in it before my name goes on it.

We invite you to see what a J Shaw Custom Handcrafted saddle can do for you.
