Hilason Western Saddle Repair Leather 1 Latigo Carrier Girth Holder Mahogany
Hilason Western Saddle Latigo Carrier and Girth Holder - Western Saddle Latigo Carrier
This Hilason western saddle latigo carrier and girth holder replaces the worn strap keeper on your rigging, holding the latigo and girth strap flat and secure through every ride. Cut from full grain harness leather with a hand-stamped border and a mahogany finish, the pair fits onto your existing saddle setup so your western tack stays neat instead of tangled under the fender.
Why This Leather Latigo Carrier Holds Up on Daily Rides
- Hand-stamped border and burnished edges resist the rubbing that frays thinner saddle repair parts
- Slotted openings feed the latigo and girth strap through cleanly, so straps lie flat instead of bunching under the skirt
- Two-piece set covers both sides of the rigging - the narrow latigo carrier and the wider girth holder
- Built for everyday barn use without the premium price tag
Best For Trail Riding, Ranch Work and Saddle Repair
- Replacing a cracked or stretched latigo keeper on a working western saddle
- Trail riding, ranch work and everyday schooling where rigging takes constant strain

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Hilason latigo carrier made of genuine leather?
Yes. The latigo carrier and girth holder are cut from full grain harness leather, the same leather used in Hilason saddle making. You can see the hand-stamped border and burnished edges in the product photos. Full grain is the strongest cut of the hide, which is why it holds up on a rigging part that sees constant friction from the latigo strap and girth strap.
Will this latigo carrier fit my western saddle?
Fit varies by saddle and strap width, so check the slot opening against the latigo and girth strap you plan to use. The latigo carrier is the narrower piece with the vertical slot and the girth holder is the wider piece with the horizontal slot. If your current keeper matches this shape and slot style, this set is a direct replacement. Measure your old part before ordering.
What is the difference between a latigo carrier and a girth holder?
Both are strap keepers that sit on the western saddle rigging, but they do different jobs. The latigo carrier holds the long latigo strap that cinches the saddle down on the near side, while the girth holder keeps the off-side girth strap flat and untangled. This set includes both pieces, so you can replace one worn keeper or refresh both sides at once.
Is this a pair or a single piece?
The set pairs a latigo carrier with a girth holder, and the product photos show both pieces side by side: the narrow carrier with the vertical slot and the wider holder with the horizontal slot. If you only need to replace one side, you can fit just that piece and keep the other as a spare for the tack room.
How do I care for this leather latigo carrier?
Wipe the leather with a damp cloth after dusty rides, let it dry away from direct heat, and apply a light coat of leather conditioner once or twice a season. Conditioner keeps the harness leather supple so the slot edges do not dry and crack. Avoid soaking the piece in water and never store a damp saddle with the keeper still wet.
