The Painted Cactus Breast Collar and Headstall by Rafter T Ranch Co. is for the rider who’s not afraid to bring a little bold color and personality to the saddle. With a rich combination of warm leather, hand-painted details, and standout texture, this tack set brings the perfect mix of art, function, and western soul.
At the heart of this set is the vibrant cactus motif, brought to life in layers of painted green and coppery rose tones. The color isn’t overwhelming—it’s just enough to draw the eye without taking over. Paired with classic basketweave panels and floral tooling, it delivers a design that’s both playful and grounded in tradition.
The tooling is clean and precise, laid out in a way that flows naturally from piece to piece. Whether you’re riding in the arena or hitting the trail, the hand-painted cactus details and tooled leather give off an unmistakably western vibe with a fresh, artistic twist. This set celebrates craftsmanship, color, and confidence all in one go.
The breast collar is shaped for a secure, balanced fit and features wide panels that distribute pressure evenly while still showing off the detailed design work. Finished with sturdy hardware and fully adjustable leather straps, it’s ready for long rides, weekend shows, or anything in between.
Up top, the headstall gives you options. Choose between a traditional browband or a minimalist single ear, depending on your preferred fit and look. Both options feature the same painted cactus details and tooling, set against a natural oil leather that softens beautifully over time. The coloring is vibrant without being too loud, and the craftsmanship is exactly what you’d expect from a brand like Rafter T Ranch Co.—solid, stylish, and made to last.
Turquoise whipstitching adds a crisp contrast to the darker outlines and highlights the curves in all the right places. It’s the kind of finishing touch that makes everything feel pulled together and ready to show off.
Sold separately, the headstall and breast collar work beautifully on their own—but when paired together, they create a cohesive set that’s equal parts fun, fierce, and functional. It’s the kind of tack that starts conversations, gets compliments, and still holds up to the dust, sweat, and everyday miles.
Whether you’re out to turn heads or just add a little color to your ride, the Painted Cactus Collection brings a fresh twist to classic western style. Built with care and designed for riders who want their gear to feel as unique as their journey, this set is ready to ride as hard as you do—and look good every step of the way.
