Burns is the oldest same-family owned western retail business in the world, celebrating 146 years of building heirloom quality products. The business began in 1876 with founder Miles Lamonie Burns building leather saddle harness. Since then, Burns has had six different shop names, six generations of ownership, and one family, one legacy, one culture: COWBOY. Today, 5th and 6th generation owners have built the company into a brand that embraces the spirit of the West by honoring previous generations.

At Burns, we embrace creativity and an entrepreneurial spirit in order to adapt to an ever-changing industry. We build strong relationships with our customers and create wearable works of art in the form of hand-tooled leather saddles, hand-engraved sterling silver belt buckles, hand-shaped fur felt hats, and handmade leather boots. As you can see, we do a lot of work with our hands!

We aren’t afraid to learn something new and tackle a challenge. Our team is a family, and we work hard to hold each other accountable to reach our goals, build our skills, and create our best work. We know how to have fun and are ready to learn and grow along the way.

Our passion is elevating life experiences through heirloom quality products created in the Spirit of the West, since 1876. As members of the Burns team, we try to achieve this passion by exemplifying our core values in everything we do
