Saddle Restoration & Cleaning in Utah
Heirloom saddles, everyday cleaning, and cowboy hat cleaning
A good saddle can outlast the rider who first owned it. Straight Arrow Saddlery restores older and family saddles and tack so they can be ridden or handed down, and cleans and conditions saddles that just need care.
Restoration is where we started. Lynn Barnson specializes in refurbishing, and Cole Barnson emulates traditional western carving styles, so repairs and new leather match the character of the original.
We also clean cowboy hats at our Panguitch shop.
Panguitch: bring your saddle to 35 N Main St, Monday through Saturday, 10am to 4pm, April through November, or call 385-249-4168 for a winter appointment.
Riverton: by appointment only, with pickup, meetups or shipping. Call 385-434-1242.
