I asked Simon to make a customised Wallet. With 2 deep pockets, one for notes ensuring they are extra safe (if you've ever had notes slip out of your wallet, you'll appreciate the deeper pockets! ) The other is to keep stuff separate (everything is now so well organised). As well as 4 card pockets. These are extra secure (no more flying or losing cards! ). He made a genuine and very unique "masterpiece". Superbly crafted and it looks beyond fantastic. It was going to be a "gift" but it's so good I want to keep it! Because it was a one off - we gave it a special name - the "Sparrowhawk 2 (with pockets)" Again it really is exquisite.Moreexpand_more

This marks our second purchase of a dog collar from Simon, and once again, the quality surpasses anything else we've come across in the market, even those at a higher price point. The meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship is outstanding, ensuring a product that will serve both dog and owner exceptionally well over the long term. When the time comes to replace this one, we'll unquestionably turn to Simon for our next collar.

Wonderful martingale collar for my dog. Has been the highest quality I have been able to find (ordered from the USA). Also has excellent customer service.

Beautiful sturdy dog collar. Much nicer than the tat from the pet shop, looks like it will last a lifetime.

Luna over the moon with her new collar. Should last her lifetime, the quality is superb. Great service and communication too. .

Exceptional craftmanship and quality. This is the second collar that Simon has made for our dogs and it is fantastic.

It is already the second time we bought our dog's collar from Simon. The quality exceeds everything else we've seen available on the market (even those that are quite expensive. ) The attention to detail and workmanship is excellent which results in a product that will be perfect for both dog and owner for a long time. Once this one wears off, we'll definitely get the new one again from Simon.

Such amazing quality and craftsmanship. I wanted a handsome collar for my handsome standard poodle and I was delighted with it. Thank you so much.

Great workmanship and quick service. Extremely pleased with my belt.

Absolutely fantastic. The new dog collar is top quality and should last for years. Could not be more pleased.

My review is rather late but I still felt it necessary to post. I ordered a Traditional leather collar in burgundy with black stitching and brass fittings. There was a delay with the brass swage loop but this was no fault of Simon. The collar was worth waiting for, the quality of the workmanship is super and looks very smart. I would not hesitate in placing further orders.

My wife bought me the Trailblazer camera sling as a Christmas present which I am absolutely delighted with. The order was at short notice and Simon made sure that this was delivered in time. The sling is of excellent quality and the functionality of the design is perfect. I am easily able to change lenses safely knowing that the camera is secure and cannot be dropped. I mainly shoot motorsport and the sling also gives me the flexibility of being able to move around freely but still have the camera quickly to hand if needed.

So pleased with the service at Oakside Sadldlery. The dog collar and lead ordered were beautifully made and finished The leather was of a high quality… Thoroughly recommend !

I order a belt and keyring back in may this year. Unfortunately lockdown delayed the the delivery to Simon of the buckle. I was updated regularly and offered alternatives. Keyring was made bespoke with a 20 Bore cartridge I supplied, excellent workmanship just as I have come to expect from Simon. The belt arrived a short while later and again beautifully made. Also asked for a watch strap, a new venture for Simon, again top quality. I have ordered belts, dog leads and a rifle sling in the past. I keep coming back as the service and quality is superb.

Thanks Si for the fab collar and lead for our girl Murphy, really like the raspberry detail on the collar.

I had been looking for a custom belt design I had seen in Australia but could not find it anywhere. Simon helped me with researching what he needed to make it. His communication was excellent. The belt looks beautiful and I'm very impressed with the craftsmanship.

Hi Simon, I just wanted to say that the collar and lead for my dog is excellent and really looks fitting on him. The craftsmanship is superior to others I have seen and is worth every penny. It was also no trouble for you to add an additional loop onto the collar which I am grateful for.

Lovely collar for my Weimaraner and in a beautiful deep ox blood red! Really suits her colouring. Worth every penny and I’m sure will last for many years to come. Thank you!

Simon's response to my request for a custom belt for my wife's birthday at short notice was brilliant and saved the day! A great belt arrived in time and, most importantly, is being worn with pride and pleasure by her! Five stars for value, service and quality fully justified. Many thanks.

Outstanding from initial inquiry through discussing our requirement, ordering, updates and delivery. Simon was quick to respond, very knowledgeable and true to his word. We ordered a modified version of a Martingale Dog Collar. Discussed with Simon before ordering, no problems and he delivered exactly what we wanted when he said he would delivery it. Top quality product that I'm confident will last years. Just couldn't get what we needed anywhere else.
