Colour to suit a bay horse

[Bustalot]

What colours do you think will suit a bay horse? (more bright bay) He is a Gelding... so no pinks! lol.

Any pictures you can share of your bays in their colours?

 

[SNORKEY]

Forest green, red or yellow?

 

[Kat]

Bays suit just about anything.

Red, blue, green, yellow, whatever.

I have a bright bay gelding...

He looks absolutely delish in Purple (a rich dark or medium purple). Think aubergine

Also baby blue is nice but extremely difficult to find!! they only seem to do pony rugs in baby blue...

Black with a light trim (silver, white, light blue) - all very smart

My absolute fave though is the dark purple...which would explain why most of his rugs are this colour!!

 

[ellie_e]

Mine has navy, burgundy or green

Pretty much anything goes with a bay!

Green is the nicest but because some people apparently think its unlucky it's quite hard to find. Mad!! Also on a bright bay, baby blue (I have a lovely baby blue Thermatex for my 17hand bay)

I'm a big fan of blues in a variety of shades, plus browns and sandy/gold colours. Green can be lovely too.


I'm sure if you search for 'matchy matchy' threads you will get plenty of ideas!

Nikkimariet and Prince33Sp4rkle over in Competition Riders have bays with the most amazing selection of coloured saddlecloths etc. so might be worth looking at their posts. There are plenty of others in there with beautiful bays but CS (Prince33's horse) is the first one that springs to mind.

I have a bright bay who suits electric blue best

Also navy and burgundy

And looks nice in plain White too!

I always thought lime green would look nice

 

[tazzle]

ive always used purple...but recently got a navy saddle cloth and LOVE it!!
also green looks good

 

[Technique]

My fabulous bay mare always wore burgundy, old gold and cream. No diamontes, nothing OTT, just classy & understated, it was good enough for county level, HOYs etc.

 

[Shantara]

Red!

 

[Jazzy B]

I recently purchased a orange numnah for my bay it looks lovely

 

[flirtygerty]

Red or white, although he suits his purple rug, perhaps there's some truth in that they suit any colour, so have fun deciding

 

[Phoebe+Sophie]

Mine has purple and pink. Brown really suits her too.

 

[Rollin]

For me it is YELLOW every time.

 

[spottyUnicorn]

My bright bay looks great in purple and green.

 

[weesophz]
