In 1932 our founder, Reginald Murray Williams AO, CMG began to make bush saddlery and boots for sale, while camped at Nepabunna, in South Australia's remote Gammon Ranges. Here R.M. first met 'Dollar Mick Smith', an itinerant saddler. The two men after much trial and error were able to fashion a pair of stockman's riding boots. Over 85 years on, R.M. Williams continues to make world renowned boots, accessories and men's and women's apparel that are purposefully designed and sustainable to enjoy on life's adventures. Today, R.M.Williams has 65 retail stores in Australia, 2 stores in New Zealand, 3 stores in the USA and 3 stores in the UK as well as over 900 stockists around the globe. R.M.Williams is a global company, yet will always remain passionate about the Australian bush. In 2020 Tattarang acquired 100% of R.M.Williams from L Catterton bringing the brand back into Australian hands for the first time since 2014. Tattarang is one of Australia's largest private investment groups owned by Andrew and Nicola Forrest. The investment of the Forrest family will ensure the Australian craftsmanship of R.M.Williams continues to be loved and worn all around the world.
