RM Williams is Australia's leading country lifestyle brand.  Best known for its elastic sided boots that last for years, the company also produces a large range of quality clothing for men, women and children as well as accessories such as hats, belts, wallets and bags. Its products are not just beautiful, they're also top quality in their materials and workmanship.

So who was R.M.Williams?  Reginald Murray Williams grew up in the desolate mid-north of South Australia.  In his early teens he  followed his adventurous spirit and left home to take up work as a lime burner in the Mallee scrub of north-western Victoria. The skills learnt in this work, together with his will to succeed, saw him, at age sixteen, heading for the remote gold fields of Western Australia.

Work followed at a number of the huge pastoral stations of central Australia and the Northern Territory.  It was then that he learnt bush lore from the aborigines of the region and from the tough bushmen of the cattle camps, the many skills of the mounted stockman.  During these formative years, RM grew to love the bush, its people and all its moods.

It was during the Great Depression that Reg Williams set up camp hundreds of kilometres north of Adelaide at Italowe Gorge in the remote Gammon Ranges.  Barely eking out a dangerous, solitary existence sinking wells, RM began to craft boots, bush saddlery and some of the equipment required for use on surrounding stations.  It wasn't long before his work developed a reputation for craftsmanship and durability.

RM returned to Adelaide and began selling his riding boots by mail order. Handcrafted, comfortable and made to last a lifetime, they were formed by a man who understood the hardship and dangers of life in the harsh Australian outback.  When he passed away in November 2003, Reg Williams was mourned by the nation.

From these small beginnings has grown the worldwide company we know today.  Valley Country can attest to the superior quality of the materials and workmanship in every item in the R.M. Williams range.

Valley Country carries a large range of R.M.Williams products including menswear, ladieswear, accessories, boots, belts and much more. Go to our RM Williams catalogue or use the category list at left to locate the RMW item you're looking for.
