The USEA's newly renovated online store www.shopusea.com just got a little better! ShopUSEA, which had been temporarily closed due to COVID-19, is now open for business once again. The COVID-19 pandemic has been a trying time for all, but ShopUSEA can bring a little bit of eventing spirit back into our lives.
The online store is now fully stocked with both new items and old favorites. With supplies that were set to be featured in the USEA merchandise booth at the 2020 Land Rover Kentucky Three-Day Event before the event's cancellation, the USEA now has plenty of merchandise to go around. Fans and members can still get their shopping fix at ShopUSEA!
This summer, our partners at Ariat and Ovation have provided sun shirts to keep our community cool and sunburn free. Get yourself an Ariat sunstopper as well as an Ovation cool rider sun shirt for each day of the week. Our staff also particularly like the Ovation UV Sportflex shirt for keeping cool while riding in the sunshine.
The USEA is also featuring team apparel with the brand new USA Global Softshell, which is great for those cool mornings or late evenings at the barn. Members can also sport the patriotic Team Tri-Factor.
The USEA also has some new accessories that are great for birthday presents, Father’s Day gifts, or just for your own enjoyment. Check out the new USEA Tote styled in various colors, and the brand new featured USEA mug.
Did you miss out on getting your raincoats or winter jackets? Or if you’re looking ahead to next winter, don’t miss our Mountain Horse jacket collection with the MH Raincoat, MH Minoue, and the MH Montana.
There’s something for everyone at the USEA’s online store. Let’s all come together and proudly wear our U.S. Eventing gear as the eventing season starts back up. We look forward to seeing everyone out there!
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!
It's the most wonderful time of the year—and we aren't talking about the holiday season. Welcome to 2025 Defender Kentucky Three-Day Event (K3DE) week!
