  • CASCADES FUTURITY

    September 1-13

    From September 1–13, Cares & Whoas will be at the Cascade Futurity at the Deschutes County Fair & Expo Center in Redmond.

    The Cascade Futurity is more than a horse show—it's a celebration of the Western lifestyle, exceptional horsemanship, and the community that brings it all together.

    We invite you to experience the Cascade Futurity with us. Visit the Cares & Whoas booth to explore our latest collection of elevated Western apparel, boots, accessories, home décor, and gifts, then spend the day taking in exceptional horses, premier cutting horse competition, and the enduring spirit of the West.

    Whether you're stepping into the show pen, cheering from the fence, or experiencing the sport for the first time, we hope you'll stop by, say hello, and spend some time with us.

    We look forward to seeing you at the Futurity.

  • HYER BOOTS | FIND YOUR FIT

    September 1-13

    Rooted in the American West since 1875, Hyer Boots brings more than 150 years of bootmaking heritage to a new generation. Known for craftsmanship, traditional construction, and a legacy that began with the original cowboy boot, Hyer is a brand built around boots meant to be worn.

    This year, Cares & Whoas is bringing an expanded Hyer collection to Cascades Futurity, giving you the chance to experience the boots in person. Explore men’s and women’s styles, try on the collection, get fitted, and place your order with us throughout the show.

    JOIN US SEPTEMBER 3

    We’re adding a little something extra on September 3 with drinks, bites, special event pricing, and a gift with Hyer boot purchase, while supplies last.

    Hyer fittings and ordering will be available at the Cares & Whoas booth throughout Cascades Futurity, September 1–13.

    Find Your Fit.
