Saddles Restoration

Roping Saddles Restoration | Leather Work - Saddle Repair. https://leathercraftmax.com This saddle repair project took two months to complete. A lot of the components had to be replaced in order to bring the saddles back to a usable condition. New stirrups, saddle fenders, flank straps, cinches and catchers. The saddle oil I used really helped recondition the leather bring it back to life. These custom made roping saddles have seen a lot of use in the arena and were just about used up and consider not repairable but I took them in and did my thing to them.
The saddles you see here were made in 1992, 1994 and 1996 and the saddle numbers are 202, 251 and 313.
The saddle trees were made by the late Jim Parry of the Hercules Saddle Tree Company, Moab Utah.

Saddles are maker marked Bruce Cheaney Custom Saddles, Gainesville Texas.
