2015 Galway Downs Fall International 3-Day

One of the largest 3-Day events on the west coast, the 2015 Galway Downs fall international event is taking place October 28th through November 1st. (Full schedule below). Horse / rider teams from Novice through the three star level will be competing as well as Young Event Horse (“YEH”) 4 & 5 year old divisions.

Four Star Eventing Gear will be attending the Galway Downs Fall Event with our pop-up shop, stocked full of all the latest and greatest 3-day eventing gear. We’re most excited about the introduction of the new Boyd Martin XC boots made by Majyk Equipe. The new version of the boots are even better then the first – for the same price! A full list of features and improvements can be found on the Boyd Martin XC boot product page.

Professional Event Rider Meet and Greet

In conjunction with Majyk Equipe, we will be hosting a number of professional riders at the pop-up shop for photographs, autograph signing and Q&A. Be sure to check our FaceBook page for real-time updates on who and when the riders will be at the shop.

XC Boot Upgrade

Turn in your first generation Boyd Martin XC boots for a brand new set of Boyd Martin 2.0 boots at a 25% discount. Don’t have the original BMs? We’ll take your old XC boots and upgrade you for 10% off. You can also choose any of our other XC boots for 10% off when you turn in your old set. We will be recycling or donating your used set of boots.
