About Us
Tennessee Saddlery
Founded over 45 years ago in the heart of Tennessee horse country, Tennessee Saddlery was born from a deep respect for the unique needs of gaited horses—especially the Tennessee Walking Horse. Early on, we recognized a gap in the market: traditional western saddles simply didn’t fit these breeds properly.
Our founder dedicated years to developing saddle trees and designs tailored specifically for gaited horses, combining functionality, comfort, and durability. From lightweight synthetics to traditional leather saddles, every product is designed with the rider and horse in mind.
Since launching our online store in 2004, Tennessee Saddlery has earned a reputation for quality craftsmanship, specialized design, and unmatched customer satisfaction. We work directly with skilled manufacturers, ensuring each saddle meets our exacting standards—using full-grain leather, precise tooling, and techniques that reflect our commitment to excellence.
At Tennessee Saddlery, we believe premium western saddles for gaited horses shouldn’t come with a premium price tag. That’s why most of our saddles are priced under $600—making comfort, quality, and fit accessible to every rider.

Our Team
Tim & Michelle | Owners, Horse Lovers
At Tennessee Saddlery, horses are more than just a passion—they’re part of our family story. Both of us, Tim and Michelle, grew up surrounded by animals of all kinds, but it was horses that truly captured our hearts.
We raised three daughters who began showing paint horses at a young age, and as a family, we’ve proudly earned 10 APHA World Titles across western pleasure, halter, and other disciplines. Our love for the equine world has shaped everything we do.
Today, when we’re not helping customers find the perfect saddle, you’ll likely find us in the barn tending to our retired show horses. This hands-on connection with horses keeps us grounded and focused on what really matters: quality, fit, and comfort—for both horse and rider.
We’re proud to offer a selection of saddles that combine thoughtful design, craftsmanship, and affordability. Whether you’re a first-time buyer or a seasoned competitor, we’re here to help you find the right fit.
And even if you don’t buy a saddle from us, we hope you leave with a positive experience—and maybe a couple of new horse friends, too.
Reviews
Just got my saddle in, it came a day earlier than the expected date which I’m super happy with! Fits my mare so well with no sliding forward or back. She feels more free moving also! The leather is soft and it isn’t stiff like most new saddles. It holds me in well too and is really comfortable. Definitely happy with this purchase!
