Any matchy matchy people with black horses?

[rolsterlady]

Looking to get a new set of exercise bandages and a new saddle cloth for my black mare, but i'm so undecisive and can't for the life of me decide which colour to get her!

Decisions, decisions!

Anyone got pics of black horses with matchy matchy colours or just a saddle cloth, or any colour suggestions for a black horse?

Just a bit of fun!
Thanks in advance

Yellow looks fantastic on black horses, as does red.
Saying that, most colours will suit!
Have a look at the Anky sets, or HKM,they'll give you some inspiration/prove far too tempting and you won't be able to resist buying a matchy matchy set, or two!

One of mine is officially dark bay but to the eye he's black.
He looks great in bright red bound white .
And sky Blue
And navy and yellow
He does not seem to suit greens .
Lots of colours look great on blacks

Everything is purple for Bree - I'm afraid I don't Have any pictures of her with her saddle on at present, but here is her in her purple head collar.

My mum has a black cob & purple looks lovely on him, but I have no pics of him in it.

Thank you all!

I think that's why i'm finding it hard to choose, she seems to suit any colour! I'm very lucky to have a black horse i suppose!

Looking at HKM stuff now, all very tempting!

Navy blue looks a good respectable colour on blacks IMO

My old horse was black and new one is such a dark bay he may as well be black haha. Any colour looks good on them really, but for matchy sets I like bright colours which look fab on the dark coat

Plus pics of your girl would help us decide ;-)

Hot Pink

 

[swampdonkey]

i prefer the understated matchy matchy, khaki would look great or maybe steel grey.

 

[WelshD]

grey would look fab

Or the tan/brown colour in the HKM catologue would look amazing on a black horse

Thanks for the pics! Gorgeous horse and i love the orange matchy matchy stuff! Very eye catching

I am still undecided but i've got lots of colours shortlisted at the mo

Dark grey is top of the list at the mo!
Although, i always go for discreet colours like black, navy, or brown.. and i think she would look great in something more colourful, but maybe i should stick to what i like best! Thank you

 

[rolsterlady]

This is she! She is actually a very dark brown but almost black!

Mine is very dark bay pretty much black and whilst he looks great in red he looks the best in bright sort of royal blue

I have to agree! Grey is top of the list at the mo

My girl wears bright red or light blue, as you definitely need more than one set of matchy matchy, beige also looks fab

I'm sure once i have one matchy matchy set i won't be able to resist another!

I like the sound of light blue on my mare

Not matchy matchy but I LOVE this HKM saddlecloth. After keeping a close eye on the work of PKF though, I chose to donate the £30 I would have spent instead... Payday again next week though so

Ivory/ cream looks great on blacks, though gets dirty so quickly :/

Also like this colour on black... Another one on my wish list

 

[FfionWinnie]

That orange looks fantabidozie!!

 

[evj]

Mine looks great in bright red, I think they look fab in most colours. Not keen on brown though

 

[emma.is]

white bandages and saddle pad looks so classic and elegant on a black horse!

 

[Dancing Queen]

ERRRRMMMM......

With my Jet black horse I put him in White.

White saddlecloth with his name embroidered on to it
White bandages/boots
Browband encrusted with real swarovski crystals.

His whites were sparkling and his coat shone. I do say it but he looked abs perfect, i wish he was still here.

 

[Maiko]

Mine has a white saddle cloth and white boots most of the time. I also have the following sets of saddlecloths / bandages which occasionally get an outing, depending on what I am wearing to match!!!

1. Sludge green (sounds ghastly, looks fab)
2. Blood red (darker than scarlet, very classy)
3. Dark khaki
4. Black

 

[WestCoast]

Let's be honest, a black horse looks fabulous in anything.

Now if only I could find a purple show jacket. I'm actually thinking of getting something like this made up in a shorter length in a deep purple fabric.

Here is my daughter on her pony, he is dark bay, but very nearly black. This colour is also worn on her grey and two black horses and looks great on them all.

My black mare wears whatever is clean, poor girl and apart from white, the colours are always muted. I'm slightly in awe of you super smart folk who are coordinated. Do like the sound of grey though.

baby blue looks gorg on black
