The USTRC-branded saddle starts with a foundation of a half-fiberglass-reinforced wood, rawhide-covered tree. Built by our artisan craftsmen with over 30 years of experience, our USTRC branded saddles use only Hermann Oak’s premium 13-15 ounce heavy skirting saddle leather and 100 percent wool sheepskin lining. Designed with custom USTRC conchos and a wider, deep roper rawhide-covered wood stirrup, these saddles feature a hand-laid groundseat and hand-stitched cantle and seat to provide you with a great tool to help you with the foundation and fundamentals of a great run.
