Welcome, and thanks for riding by today. We're the Oliver family in Amarillo, Texas. We've been serving the American cowboy with quality leather goods for four generations. C. W. Oliver (Claude) started his shop in Vernon, Texas, in 1917 and was later joined by sons Bill and Jack. They continued the tradition of serving the working cowboy under the name of Oliver Brothers Saddle Shop until Bill moved to Prescott, Arizona, in the early 50s. Bill returned to his native Texas and opened the Bill Oliver Saddle Shop in Amarillo in 1960. Richard Oliver joined his dad and, in turn, has been joined by his sons in the shop. Each generation has passed along the knowledge and skills needed to build the best equipment possible for the working ranch cowboy, the pleasure horseman, and the competing showman. Our pride runs deep in our saddles and tack that we build and use ourselves. Our saddles are handmade and numbered, and we keep a record of almost every saddle we make. We can usually give you full information on any saddle we have made; find the number on the cantle or skirt and give us a call.
At Oliver Saddle Shop, craftsmanship runs deep. Richard Oliver and his sons, Bryan and Zeb, bring more than 95 years of combined experience building ranch, cutting, roping, and show saddles and tack. We’re proud to have a talented team of craftsmen who help carry on the Oliver tradition. Hunter Lane builds saddles and strap goods, Lanie Davis crafts leggings, Roy Sansom makes belts and gift items, Titus Olson handles repairs and cleanings, and Rylie Tabor builds strap goods. Kylee Smith keeps our website and social media up to date. We’re blessed with a great crew, and any of us would be happy to help with your saddle, tack, repair, or custom needs. Give us a call or stop by and see us. If you are ever in the area, please come by and visit - we love meeting new friends and visiting with old ones. The most familiar faces are from here in the Southwest, but friends have been made nationally and worldwide.
