Where to Buy Western Tack?

[lucemoose]

From the UK, as postage rates are steep from the US etc and that includes Ebay! Wouldnt mind knowing for things like sport boots, general US grooming and horsecare products and I wouldnt mind a tie down..
I know there are a few places but havent w clue where they are or whether they do online/mail order etc??
Thanks!

I'm not sure if they still do but I know Robinsons used to sell western tack

Robinsons do western tack, just search through the sadd;es/bridles sections and you'll find some.

There's a western tack shop in rainham, kent - haven't been past it for a while but i'm presuming it's still there. I think it's called rawhide but i could be completly wrong!

Rawhide shop closed, but if you do a search I think they might still be selling on the Net.
Be careful if you're planning to buy a western saddle, so many in this country are rubbish and too narrow for most of our native types.

Be very wary of cheap western saddles - badly made and often the decoration is pinned on which can dig into the horse's back.

I paid £400 for a good second saddle for Cairo and about £130 for his bridle and another £65 for the bit (custom made for his big gob). You can get western tack for clydesdales, but have to shop around
