Hilason Western Saddle Repair Leather 1 Latigo Carrier Girth Holder Tan
Hilason Leather Latigo Carrier - Western Saddle Girth Holder in Tan
This Hilason leather latigo carrier and girth holder gives a working western saddle a secure anchor for the girth strap, so the latigo stays flat and tight instead of sliding out of adjustment mid-ride. The two-piece set is cut from full grain harness leather with a tooled border and finished in classic tan. One latigo carrier and one girth holder are included, which makes it a simple saddle repair job or a straightforward tack upgrade. Hilason builds repair parts and full saddles for riders who want professional quality without the premium price tag.
Why This Leather Girth Holder Holds Under Steady Cinch Tension
- Full grain harness leather construction resists stretching at the slot, where a latigo carrier takes the most pull
- Tooled border stiffens the edge so the strap stays seated instead of rolling under load
- Slotted shape keeps latigo and girth straps separated and cuts tangling in the tack room
- Economical repair part that costs far less than replacing a whole saddle
Best For Trail Riding, Ranch Work and Saddle Repair
- Replacing a cracked or stretched latigo carrier on a well-used western saddle
- Trail riding, ranch work and daily arena sessions where girth tension matters
- Riders restoring an older saddle or assembling a complete western tack setup

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a latigo carrier and what does it do?
A latigo carrier is the leather piece that anchors the latigo strap to a western saddle, while a girth holder keeps the girth strap from slipping or tangling. Together they hold steady tension so the saddle stays balanced and secure. This leather latigo carrier replaces a worn original or upgrades a saddle that keeps coming loose.
Is this latigo carrier made of genuine leather?
Yes. The latigo carrier and girth holder are cut from full grain harness leather, the same heavy stock used in Hilason saddle making. Full grain leather holds its shape under constant girth tension and resists stretching and cracking, unlike thin split leather. The tan finish wipes clean with a damp cloth and a light coat of leather conditioner.
Will this girth holder fit my western saddle?
It is built for standard western saddle rigging and threads a standard latigo strap through the slot. Because saddle rigging varies by maker, compare your existing carrier's slot length and overall shape against the product photos before ordering. If your saddle uses an unusual rigging setup, confirm the fit with the saddle maker first.
How do I install a latigo carrier and girth holder?
Thread the latigo strap through the slot in the carrier, attach the carrier to the saddle rigging point and pull the strap snug. No stitching, rivets or special tools are needed. The girth holder slides onto the girth strap to keep it flat and prevent tangling when the saddle is stored.
Does this come as one piece or two?
You receive two pieces: one latigo carrier and one girth holder, both finished in matching tan leather with a tooled border. They work together as a set on a single western saddle, so order one set for each saddle you are repairing or upgrading. See the product photos for the shape and slot layout of each piece.
