At Burns Saddlery, we are owning our products. Each day we are taking turns presenting a product that we carry in the store. We learn about the product features and the manufacturers. We have been doing this for 1 week. In that week there have already been mention of 4 women that bring us the amazing products we carry.
* Carol Gostree designs a line of bits for Equibrand. Carol is a world champion barrel racer that was teaching school and could not find a bit suitable for her horse, she took a bit to the school shop teacher with what she had in mind and had him build one for her. She had been designing bits for over 30 years
* In 1993 Beth Cross and Pam Parker set out to create a new company that would revolutionize footwear for riders. They founded Ariat, America's number one English and Western performance foot wear brand.
* In 1925 Miss Enid Justin founded the Nocona Boot Company following the death of her father " Daddy Joe" Justin. Miss Enid was a key part of the Nocona Boots until her death in October 1990.
History is so important to us at Burns Saddlery, and it has been so fun learning about our manufacturers, especially those great women that have contributed so much to the western lifestyle.
