The hardest part of the Olympics–team processing at the Olympic Village–is now completed for the eventers of Team USA. While there, the riders picked up their official team uniforms. I know a lot of eventing fans aren’t the biggest fan of the ultra-preppy Ralph Lauren threads, and you can consider me in that group, but the riders obviously don’t have any input in the uniforms. Frankly, if I had a chance to compete for the USA at the Olympic and my was a paper bag, by God I’d wear that paper bag with pride and a smile. I do think the team jackets in the above photo look awesome. The photos are courtesy of Boyd, explaining why we don’t have pics from the ladies’ dressing room.
Go eventing.
