Shop 400+ new & used saddles and quality tack, all while supporting a business that gives back to our horse community. Saddle Up Western Saddle & Tack Shop — Family-Owned Since 1997 🤠

We’re a family business through and through, and honestly? Saddle Up started back in 1996 as Dick’s “retirement hobby” (you know how those go), and in 2009 his daughter Danna joined the ride. Fast-forward to today and we’ve got 200+ new and used saddles in stock — and the lineup changes daily. If you don’t see your perfect match today, check back tomorrow… it just might roll in!

⭐ Our Upgrade Program

Horses aren’t cheap — we get it. So we created a program that helps riders start where they’re comfortable and level up when the time is right. Here’s the deal: start with a quality saddle that fits your horse and your budget. When you're ready to upgrade, bring it back and we’ll take it in on trade less 30% toward a higher-priced saddle (new or used from our inventory — consignment excluded). It’s the perfect way to ease into riding, try different fits, or finally make the jump to your dream saddle.

🐴 Buying, Selling, Trading & Consigning

We’re always on the lookout for good, well-loved tack and saddles, and so are our customers. Bring yours in — we buy, trade, and consign every day.

📍 Come Visit or Shop Online

Whether you’re local or scrolling from the barn, we’re here to help you find exactly what you need. Call or email us — odds are, we’ve got it in the shop. Thanks for riding with us,
Danna & the Saddle Up Crew

We appreciate your business more than you know 🤎

Want to change out the conchos on your Western saddle but not sure where to start? In this episode, we’re walking you through the entire process so you can confidently swap your saddle conchos at home!

We cover the different concho sizes and styles, the tools you’ll need, how to remove and install your conchos, and a few tips we’ve picked up along the way to make the job easier.

🔧 In this video, we cover:
• Different saddle concho sizes and styles
• What tools you’ll need
• How to remove your existing conchos
• How to install new conchos correctly
• Tips for dealing with stubborn or hard-to-reach screws
• Why we like using a little clear fingernail polish on the screw threads to help keep conchos secure instead of a stronger thread locker
• Helpful tricks to make changing conchos easier

Changing your conchos is one of the easiest ways to give your saddle a fresh look without making a major modification. Whether you're replacing a missing concho, updating worn hardware, or adding a little more personality to your saddle, we’ll show you how to do it.

🐴 Saddle Up is a Western saddle and tack shop in Colorado specializing in saddles, saddle fitting, tack, and helping horse owners better understand their equipment.

Today, we pause to remember the lives lost, the heroes who answered the call, and the families forever changed by September 11, 2001. 🇺🇸

25 years later, we remember. We honor. We will never forget. ❤️🤍💙

Today, we remember.

As we mark the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001, we honor the nearly 3,000 lives lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, the families forever changed, and the countless heroes whose courage continues to inspire us.

At Cheyenne Frontier Days, we pause to reflect, to honor, and to remember.

Twenty-five years later, we still remember the unity that followed, the resilience of the American spirit, and the bravery shown in the face of unimaginable tragedy.

May we continue to stand together as a community and as a nation.

We will never forget.
