What We Do?

At Ojai Saddleworks, we are committed to keeping you in the saddle — comfortable, confident, and looking your best. We take pride in restoring, maintaining, and preserving leather tack, while honoring the traditions of the cowboy way.

Tradition Meets Craftsmanship

At Ojai Saddleworks, we don’t just fix saddles—we preserve the stories, traditions, and craftsmanship that come with them. Whether you’re a working cowboy, an avid trail rider, or a competitor in the arena, we’re here to ensure your gear is ready for the ride ahead.

We offer professional saddle repair, modification, restoration, and detailing, along with high-quality handcrafted leather goods and supplies.

Our goal is simple: help riders and their horses perform at their best with equipment they can trust.

What We Offer?

Saddle & Tack Restoration

We specialize in restoring saddles and tack to their original strength, beauty, and functionality. From structural repairs to detailed leatherwork, we help extend the life of your most trusted equipment.

Our deep cleaning and conditioning process revitalizes leather, removes grime and buildup, and protects your equipment so it continues performing for years to come.

A properly fitted saddle is essential for both rider comfort and horse health. We provide saddle fit evaluations and guidance to help ensure the right fit for you and your horse.

Looking to buy or sell quality tack? Our consignment program helps riders connect with trusted gear while giving well-maintained equipment a second life.

We offer secure saddle shipping services for clients near and far. Whether you’re sending a saddle for repair, restoration, or consignment, we ensure it arrives safely and professionally handled.

Where We Are?

We operate out of Ojai, CA, and serve surrounding areas such as Ventura, Los Angeles, Santa Barbara, and San Luis Obispo. It’s not uncommon for a client to ship us items that need care if they are outside a drivable distance.

(If you’d like to ship us a saddle or tack, please send us an email first at [email protected] to receive an order number.)

**We are currently operating out of a private workshop and are available by appointment only.
