In May of 2014, David and Annette Dixon of DW Dixon Saddles made the trip to Torrington, Wyoming. We purchased all the inventory - including saddle trees, leather and saddle parts - of Ralph Shimon Co. Ralph spent several days teaching David his secrets to the success of his saddle making.
DW Dixon Saddles offers saddles built on Ralph Shimon's saddle trees. He is using these specially designed saddle trees and turning them into beautiful yet functional saddles. The saddles are light weight. The stirrups are free swinging.
David's saddles reflect his talent and skill. The saddles are crafted to be beautiful as well as functional. Every saddle is made to take heavy roping and use, yet comfortably enough to ride in all day. He holds high standards to his saddles. If you are not satisfied, give us a call. We will work with you to find a happy resolution. We have a lifetime guarantee on tree, horn and rigging for as long as you own your saddle.
