Martin makes their own saddletrees, uses Hermann Oak Leather, real sheepskin and controls all levels of production. Countless custom options are available. The turnaround time on a custom order is about three months. Cashel trail and all-purpose saddles are also produced at the Martin shop.
With a 10 year guarantee on the fiberglass-covered, wood saddletree and an unconditional warranty on the workmanship and materials, there is a lot of value for the price in Martin custom saddles and Cashel trail saddles. Martin Saddlery also builds a line of saddles for famed saddle maker, Donn Leson, called the Leson Classic.
The general manager of Martin Saddlery is year-old Brian Peterson. Brian is a master craftsman with an extensive background in precision welding and leatherwork. His wife, Tracey, also works at Martin and is a barrel racer, in addition to doing equine massage and therapy.
Originally from Brisbane, Australia, Brian grew up around horses. He competed in the roughstock rodeo events and initially came to the States to attend Western Texas College in Snyder, Texas. By the time Brian was 13, he was buying hides and making headstalls to sell. He rode an Australian saddle, which was traditionally used for ranch work in Australia. After some years in the States, he went back to Australia for four years.
He worked for a top Australian saddle maker, Eddie Powell, learning to make saddletrees. Brian and his wife returned to Texas in Martin Saddlery bought all the equipment he needed and Brian set up a saddletree shop at the saddle facility. Eighteen months later, Brian took over as general manager.
Brian continues to participate in equine events by showing in reined cow horse. He rides with Faron Hightower and Todd Crawford. Brian feels that the internet has become a driving factor in the rapid evolution of the saddle industry. In addition, the handicapping of events like roping, divisional barrel racing and the success of equine clinicians has made the horse industry accessible for much more information.
