WELCOME TO SIMON GRAY SADDLERY

Located in the Perth Hills area of Western Australia, SGS uses only the highest quality materials and every item is handcrafted with skill and precision. SGS can custom make a unique item for the discer

SGS began in 2008 and has an established clientele throughout Australia and internationally, offering free postage for orders over $300 (excluding saddles and repairs). SGS is one of only a few saddlers licensed with the Australian Stock Horse Society to craft tack with their ‘.A.’ logo. Being a member of the Saddlers and Harness Makers Association of Australia (SHMAA) Simon is committed to keeping the saddlery trade alive in Australia. Wherever you see the SHMAA logo you know the saddler is working to the manufacturing and ethical standards of the association.

Simon’s passion for horses started when he was 3 years old, learning to ride on a fat pony called Lennark. Simon continues to ride with his greatest enjoyment being on the polocrosse field, and is a dedicated member of the Perth Polocrosse Club. Simon’s interest in saddle making was sparked when, as a teenager, he was introduced to leatherwork at Pony Club. He undertook work experience with a Perth saddler during his final school year and was offered a saddlery traineeship in Victoria upon leaving school. His training was undertaken under the guidance of several renowned saddlers and he has since developed his own unique craftsman skills and products. Simon offers friendly service and takes great pride in his work thereby ensuring every customer is completely satisfied. He is happy to travel to measure your horse and can arrange pick up and delivery of items.

Here are a couple of photos of a saddle I’ve recently finished for lady who sadly lost everything in the terrible Wooroloo bushfire. The least I could do to help is add in a bonus bridle and breastplate set, naturally in Perth Polocrosse Club Inc. colours. Jess, I hope this helps you getting back out on the field in style.

A couple of bridles recently finished and off to their new home.

As you probably know there has been a devastating fire near Perth. We haven’t been affected but I’ve been out fighting it the last couple of days and sadly friends and customers have been impacted. I intend on going out helping with the clean up too and therefore won’t be in the workshop for a bit. I will do my best to get in contact with customers and update order statuses where possible. Stay safe everyone :)

That smug feeling you get having the first ride in someone else’s new saddle! I hope you like it Natalie.

I’m not currently taking on any repairs except for this little bit of pro bono work for RDA Brigadoon. Replacing the girth points on a few of their saddles for their upcoming safety assessments.

Best of luck to everyone at the ASHS Nationals this coming weekend. Unfortunately we wont be coming over this year as there's a bit of a wedding Penelope and I will be attending- ours!
I'll be off work for about a week so there shouldn't be too much of a delay in any orders. Keep an eye out for the SGS saddle up for grabs again this year in the ABBEY Open Challenge.

Exciting news SGS is getting a new website and it will be mobile friendly! Whilst I'm working on this I will not be taking on any repairs. If I have committed to your repair I will get to it, hopefully in the timeframe I stated.

Please call me to discuss. Please DO NOT text me or send me personal Facebook messages (I probably won't respond). I will get back to emails and SGS Facebook messages in time but call if you want to get onto me.

New orders from www.simongraysaddlery.com.au and service of your SGS saddles and tack will continue full steam ahead.

Thank you
Simon

Each SGS bridle has 179 hand stitches, including 9 hand stitched keepers. Keepers with a run of stitches are stronger, more durable and look better than a butt loop stitched keeper or one with a brass staple.

Once you go black..... well once you've got a black saddle you probably need some black tack to go with it! I can custom make all my tack in black as well as the traditional dark Havana and ausnut - a liver chestnut/ reddish brown. This set is black with navy blue braiding plus two sets of reins ready for the Perth Royal Show.

My phone has been intermittently playing up for the last few weeks. My apologies if you've been trying to get in touch but it has finally died for good. Phone shopping this morning and we'll be back in action.

All set up for the The Australian Stock Horse Society 2017 Nationals at the Australian Equine and Livestock Events Centre. I've got saddles and tack in stock ready to 'ride away' and a bunch of bridles and breastplates to finish off this week. Any of the ones pictured can be finished to order. Drop by and say g'day next to the R.M.Williams Longhorn Express.

Please note- due to preparations for my intentions to trade at the Landmark Classic and ASHS Nationals I will not be taking on any repairs or odd jobs (belts, one off jobs etc) until after the events (March 2017). I want to focus on getting my back log emptied and gear in stock to head east. Saddle and tack orders from the website (www.simongraysaddlery.com.au) and phone orders will still be made to order as they come in.
Regards
Simon

We're open for business at the Australian Polocrosse National Championship at Albury. The Grand parade is done, with WA winning the best presented state, and the first game is underway. Pop on down and say G'day.

10/04/2016

WA polox people- I will be leaving Wednesday morning for Albury. If you have forgotten anything (big or small) get it to me at Wundowie by tomorrow night and I can bring it over.

Simon Gray Saddlery is now offering a new 'stencil' brass '.A.' logo on bridles and breastplates. Instead of being engraved and paint filled the 'A' is cut out of the brass to show the colour of the leather behind. These are proving a great hit but the original green ones are still available.
I will be at the Australian Polocrosse Nationals, Albury later this month and then the Australian Stockhorse Society National Show, Tamworth in May. I will have as much stock available for sale as possible, as well as a mobile workshop to fill orders and do repairs.

18/03/2016

Please note limited orders will be filled between now and 15th May due to the Polocrosse Nationals at Albury and the ASHS Nationals at Tamworth. No orders will be filled between 18th May and 7th June due to a holiday. No large repairs will be taken on from now but I will endeavour to do all small urgent repairs. Please call me on 0427090248 to confirm availability before ordering.
