The United States Eventing Association (USEA) is pleased to welcome back FITS Riding, LTD as a sponsor of the USEA. As a longtime supporter, FITS has provided sponsorship to several programs. As a Bronze Level sponsor of the 2017 Nutrena American Eventing Championships, FITS will provide prizes for competitors at the AEC which will be held August 30- September 3, 2017 at the Tryon International Equestrian Center in Mill Spring, North Carolina. In addition, FITS is a Contributing Level sponsor of the Adult Team Championship and the USEA Gold Cup Series.

“We at FITS love getting to be a part of the great group of USEA sponsors,” said Lida Allenby of FITS. “Our products are very well suited for eventers and we are excited about getting our breeches into the hands of more top quality riders.”

FITS is dedicated to the art and science of riding apparel. Known for its PerforMAX™ leather technology, FITS riding wear is the first and only choice for thousands of equestrian athletes. FITS offers several styles of distinctive breeches, coats, tech shirts, stock ties and other accessories. Their patented products are the result of an intense pursuit of giving the wearer an enduring advantage and comfortable fit. They constantly research the physics of riding, the spectrum of technical materials and the newest sewing techniques, seeking the characteristics that matter most—high performance, outstanding comfort and flattering fit.

“FITS have been fabulous sponsors of U.S. Eventing for a number of years,” said USEA CEO Rob Burk. “They make excellent products that look great and are incredibly functional. They continue to be a perfect fit as a USEA sponsor.”

The 2024 K3DE Daily: First Horse Inspection

Lights, cameras, action! The first formal horse inspection (which some might informally refer to as "the jog") at the 2024 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event (K3DE) takes place this afternoon at the Kentucky Horse Park in Lexington, Kentucky. While this part of the event is a fan-favorite historically based on the impeccable turnout of the horses and the stylish and forward fashion choices of the riders (we are looking at you Boyd Martin in hopes that you bring back the American flag suit circa 2022), it serves a very important purpose: ensuring that each horse is fit, sound, and ready to compete at the five-star level.
