blue showing jacket?

[dwi]

Would a navy blue jacket look wierd on a piebald horse for RC dressage and showing? A girl on my yard is putting her horse out on loan and so is selling her jacket. Its really smart but I'm not sure if I'd look better in black to match my horse?

I'd only buy it it you have a matching hat, TBH i think black would look better with a Piebald though

How cheap is the jacket? An important consideration.

Navy for women, black for men.

If you are showing this horse, then you need a tweed. Navy is for hacks and show ponies and some evening performance.

FMM - can I butt in and and a further question please? Riding Horses - if wearing a coloured browband should the rider wear a navy jacket? I've watched a couple of winter classes where riders wore tweed with a velvet browband, seemed a bit at odds.

Riding horses wear tweed unless doing an evening performance, in which case it is navy, top hat and a cream stock. So day time would be coloured browband, tweed and tie. Sometimes (and it is VERY rare) people wear navy in a riding horse class. It is "allowed", but not really done.
