Family Legacy Since 1957
Wilkinson's History
I was born in 1982, my grandfather, Weldon Burgoon, traded the doctor a saddle for my hospital bill. He was raised on a farm in Denton Texas and loved all things cowboy. He grew up during the great depression which essentially started his journey with leather because during that time you had to fix your own stuff. After he graduated high school he was making purses, belts, wallets and saddles. In 1957 he opened Weldon’s Saddle Shop & Western Wear in downtown Denton, Texas. It was a North Texas institution to many folks which eventually landed him into the Texas Rodeo Cowboy Hall of Fame, National Bit & Spur Association Hall of Fame, and recognition by the Texas House of Representatives.

RAW DENIM - WHY YOU NEED A PAIR
Admittedly, the first thing I used to look at when browsing raw denim was the price. I believe this is common amongst most who have no idea why a pair of jeans cost that much. After all, they're just a pair of jeans, right? Well yes but, not just any pair of jeans, they're likely to become your favorite pair of jeans you've ever owned.

"Leather worker Clint Wilkinson carries on the legacy of his grandfather, who owned a saddle shop in Denton in the 1950s, with his sleek line of small leather goods. "
The Makers: Clint Wilkinson
"He creates everything by hand, a work-intensive process that makes his pieces special — and pricey. Most of his pieces are custom-ordered for individual clients, although he still mass-produces the souvenirs for the Bush library. A small wallet can cost $285 and take three working days to make."

"What I was able to teach him was the fundamentals. He’s taken it waaay yonder farther than that. He’s an artist, and he’s burning with ambition to do well. And we’re sure proud of him.”
