The USEA is excited to announce that Mountain Horse will be the “Official Outerwear of the USEA” for the next two years. Mountain Horse and the USEA have been partnering together for the past several years to provide USEA members the opportunity to purchase high quality USEA logo wear, and the USEA is delighted to be extending this partnership.
“As always, Mountain Horse is incredibly pleased to partner with USEA,” said Amy Pembleton -Marketing Director, English Riding Supply. “After working with them for the past six years, we have come to think of them as part of the family. The Association, and their members, are hard-working, talented individuals, and, as equestrians ourselves we can relate to their needs. Knowing the demand and expectations they have when it comes to their sport, gear and clothing makes our line a natural fit. We are proud to be the Official Outerwear of the USEA and their USEA Annual Meeting and Convention Sponsor through 2013.”
The USEA will be featuring a variety of Mountain Horse jackets and fleeces proudly displaying the USEA logo in the USEA trade fair booths at both the Rolex Kentucky CCI4* in April and the Nutrena/USEA American Eventing Championships in September. Of course the logo wear is also available year round on ShopUSEA.com.

Eventers who are new to the sport may feel a little overwhelmed by the often-misunderstood world of saddle fitting. Riders are often bombarded with information from peers online or self-described experts, putting them at risk of following bad advice related to equipment that impacts horse welfare perhaps more than any other piece of tack. Finding a qualified expert to answer these questions is crucial. Who better to turn to than both a qualified Master Saddle Fitter and a fourth-generation saddle designer to answer some of these questions?
Did you know that the USEA Foundation awards over 150 grants each year to deserving individuals who are involved in the sport of eventing?
