The United States Eventing Association, Inc. (USEA) is delighted welcome 70° as an “Official Bronze Level Sponsor of the AEC” for 2023. 70° will be providing gift certificates for first through fifth place winners in all 24 divisions at the 2023 USEA American Eventing Championships, presented by Nutrena Feeds, this Aug. 29—Sept. 3 in Lexington, Kentucky. AEC competitors will also be able to shop their line of high-performance equestrian apparel at the 70° booth in the USEA Sponsor Village.
70° is committed to quality, innovation, performance and style just as riders are committed to their sport. 70° is an equestrian and sports apparel that brings unique designs and advanced fabrics to the show ring, golf course, tennis courts, and beyond. From uniquely designed UPF protective equestrian sunshirts to their approach to modernizing show shirts, 70° brings a new angle on style, performance, and comfort.
Envisioned as a perfect balance between elegance and functionality, each of 70°'s designed pieces offer all-day performance, keeping the wearer at the optimal temperature. Not so much a clothing line as a lifestyle, the 70°'s mantra of "Feel it, Live it" translates to a passion for an active way of living and sense of style.
“The USEA thanks 70° for their support of the 2023 USEA AEC,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk. “There’s nothing better than a 70° day, and this apparel company helps you channel that feeling regardless of the temperature. Make sure to stop by their booth at the AEC and thank them for their support of the USEA.’”

“It's day 1, so I'm not getting too excited yet. There's a long, long way to go in this competition,” said Phillip Dutton after his dressage test aboard Denim in the Cosequin CCI4*-S leaving the pair in the overnight lead upon the conclusion of the first day of dressage at the 2025 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event.
And they're off! The first official day of competition at the 2025 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event (K3DE) begins today and we have a schedule jam-packed with dressage for both the four- and five-star fields.
The CCI5*-L field was narrowed by one this afternoon following the first horse inspection on High Hope Inspection Lane at the 2025 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event. Horse and rider pairs were looking their best, with a few horses demonstrating their readiness for the upcoming competition through their flamboyant behavior (we're looking at you Bronte Beach Z and Dyri).
The man, the myth, the legend himself, Derek di Grazia is back in his typical fashion at this year's Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event and he has designed some beautiful tracks for both the CCI5*-L and CCI4*-S competitions this year. You can get a first look at these amazing courses as well as some insider interviews with di Grazia himself thanks to our friends at the CrossCountry App!
