In 1932 Reginald Murray Williams AO, CMG began to make bush saddlery and boots while camped in South Australia's remote Gammon Ranges. Here, R.M. first met "Dollar Mick" Smith, an itinerant saddler, and after much trial and error, fashioned his first pair of stockman's riding boots. Since these early beginnings, the company has developed a world-wide reputation as a quality maker of boots and accessories.
