If there’s one place that truly captures the spirit of the bush, it’s Willinga Park during Gold Buckle week. And if there’s one event we’re proud to stand behind, it’s this one—the 2025 Ringers Western Gold Buckle Campdraft Championship.
At Ringers Western, we talk a lot about stickin’ together—but on that Saturday night of May 31st, that motto came to life in a ballroom bursting with heart, hope, and good old-fashioned generosity.
From cattle stations to clothing racks, Ringers Western co-founder James Salerno is taking the stage at Retail Fest 2025 to share what not to do when building an online brand. Expect honest lessons, bush-born wisdom, and the real story behind our journey.
At Ringers Western, our motto has always been about "Stickin' Together"—and that's not just a tagline; it’s how we approach life, business, and giving back. One of our proudest partnerships, close to home and heart, is with Serving Our People (SOP), a charity born right here on the Gold Coast in 2020.
Nestled in the breathtaking Marlborough region of New Zealand, Middlehurst Station is a place where history, hard work, and hospitality converge. Spanning over 50,000 acres of rugged high-country terrain, this iconic sheep station is not only a thriving agricultural enterprise but also a testament to the resilience and dedication of the people who have called it home for generations.
If you’ve ever struggled to find Western gear that actually fits—properly—you’re not alone. Shopping for clothes as a bigger Rig can feel like a never-ending battle. You scroll through store after store only to find the same old limited sizes. You squeeze into shirts that feel more like straitjackets, jeans that feel like a second skin (and not in a good way), and boots that pinch where they shouldn’t. And if you’re out bush? Good luck finding anything at all.
At Ringers Western, supporting Ronald McDonald House Charities (RMHC) is more than a tradition – it's a shared commitment to helping fellow Australians. This year, all proceeds from our limited-edition work shirts and trucker caps will go directly to RMHC, aiding their mission to keep families together during tough times.
Inspired by our roots in the Kimberley and the value of community, these designs reflect our respect for RMHC's compassionate work. By purchasing these items, you’re not just wearing Ringers Western – you’re making a difference in the lives of families in need.

Picture this, you finally get accepted into making a start on the property! You are off to be a ‘Ringer in the Top End’ whatever the hell that means.
Over the years I have worked a great number of places, with a variety of different crews, chasing several different outcomes. Just for today, let me tell you about what you sign yourself up for as a first year ringer working on a remote cattle station.
