Devoucoux Returns as Bronze Level Sponsor of the 2020 AEC

The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is pleased to announce the renewed partnership with Devoucoux as a Bronze Level Sponsor of the 2020 USEA American Eventing Championships presented by Nutrena Feeds (AEC). As a Bronze Level Sponsor, Devoucoux will generously provide $2,500 worth of AEC prizes for the 23 AEC reserve champions. This year’s AEC will be held August 25-30, 2020 at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky.

Devoucoux, the French-based saddlery company, was founded in 1985. With deep French roots, their products are made in their workshops in Bidart (Pays Basque). Devoucoux products thrive on elegance, accuracy, and comfort. Some of their signature saddles include the Biarritz, Devoucoux’s first model, the Chiberta, designed specifically for eventing, and the Makila, their dressage saddle favored by eventers. Devoucoux is well-known for its development of D3D technology, which uses 3D scanners and the latest modeling software to create sophisticated padding in terms of performance and comfort for horse and rider. Thanks to its innovative design and use of single-block alveolar foam, this padding improves the spread of pressure due to the rider across the horse’s back while optimizing the saddle’s dynamism.

“Devoucoux is a company loved by equestrians all over the world. Their expertly crafted French saddles are made with both horse and rider in mind,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk. “Devoucoux has partnered with the USEA for many years and we are very grateful to continue the partnership. Thank you, Devoucoux for supporting the sport we all love!”
