🐴 5 THINGS TO LOOK AT WHEN BUYING LEATHER TACK

Don't only look at the colour and price.

Look at:

1️⃣ The quality of the leather
2️⃣ The stitching
3️⃣ The edges and finishing
4️⃣ The buckle and hardware
5️⃣ The areas that receive the most pressure and wear

Good tack is about more than looking good in a photograph.

The details matter.

At Chris Leather, that's where we focus our attention.

🛠️ WHO ACTUALLY MAKES YOUR TACK?

At Chris Leather, the answer is simple:

Chris does.

From working with the leather to cutting, punching, stitching and finishing, each piece goes through his hands.

That's the difference between buying a product...

and knowing the person who made it.

⚠️ WHEN DID YOU LAST REALLY LOOK AT YOUR STIRRUP LEATHERS?

Most riders check their horse.

They check the saddle.

They check the girth.

But how often do you inspect the leather that connects you to your stirrups?

Look for:

🔎 Cracking around the holes
🔎 Stretched leather
🔎 Thinning
🔎 Damaged stitching
🔎 Excessive wear

Don't wait until worn tack becomes a problem.

If your stirrup leathers are showing their age, it may be time for a new pair.

❤️ THE HORSE COMES FIRST.

For most horse owners, their horse isn't simply an animal.

They're a partner.

A companion.

A trusted friend.

That's why the things we put on them matter.

At Chris Leather, we take pride in making tack that is not only beautiful, but carefully crafted for the job it needs to do.
