Hilason Western Saddle Repair Leather Latigo Carrier Tan
Hilason Leather Latigo Carrier - Western Saddle Repair Part
The Hilason leather latigo carrier is the small tan leather piece that keeps your girth strap sitting flat against the saddle instead of bunching under the skirt. Cut from full grain harness leather with a stitched scallop border, this western saddle repair part threads onto the latigo and holds it neatly in place from the first ride of the season to the last.
Why This Leather Latigo Carrier Holds Up on Working Saddles
- Full grain harness leather resists stretching at the point where the latigo pulls hardest
- Stitched scallop border reinforces the edge and adds a traditional western finish
- Wide strap slot lets the latigo feed through cleanly with no twist or tangle
- Tan color and low profile blend with most western rigging once installed

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a latigo carrier used for on a western saddle?
A latigo carrier, sometimes called a girth holder or latigo keeper, secures the latigo strap that anchors the cinch to the saddle. It keeps the girth strap flat and untangled under the saddle skirt so the rigging stays tight and easy to adjust. On most western saddles it is a small leather piece that takes a lot of wear, which is why replacement carriers are such a common tack repair.
Is the Hilason latigo carrier made of real leather?
Yes. This leather latigo carrier is cut from full grain harness leather, the same heavy leather stock used across Hilason saddle making. That matters because full grain leather resists stretching and surface cracking where the latigo pulls hardest. The tan finish and stitched scallop border give it a traditional western look that suits both older and newer saddles.
Will this latigo carrier fit my western saddle?
It is designed for quick attachment to a western saddle and threads onto the latigo strap without stitching or extra hardware. Latigo strap widths vary between saddle makers, so compare the slot on your current latigo carrier with this one before ordering. If you are unsure, measure the latigo strap width on your saddle first.
Does this latigo carrier come with a latigo strap or hardware?
No. This listing covers the leather latigo carrier only, and no latigo strap, cinch or mounting hardware is included. It is a direct replacement for the carrier already on your western saddle, so you reuse your existing latigo. Order a new latigo strap separately if the old one is stretched or cracked.
Is this a good value saddle repair part?
It is a cost-effective way to keep a working western saddle in service. A stretched or cracked latigo carrier is one of the simplest tack repairs to handle yourself, and replacing it costs far less than sending the saddle out for rigging work. Hilason builds this leather latigo carrier for durability without the premium markup.
