Was just wondering. What is the colour supposed to be worn on the boxing day hunt? And around the time of the boxing day hunt? Am i right in thinking its black? Can i wear tweed? Im 16 if that makes any difference!? Thanks for any help x :crazy:
 
If you are 16 then you should stay in tweed really to be correct. Also if you are a member of the pony club you should wear you PC tie with it.
Ladies wear blue or black, Gents wear black unless they have their colours & in Scarlet.
 
Kick on & enjoy!

I was going to say it also saves you having to buy a 2nd jacket, plus I think they look very smart personally!
 
well im going to be on a pony which im bringing back from college with me for winter. Ive got livery at Felbridge showground. So i guess the nearest is OSB, Crawley and Horsham or South Down and Eridge,.? I havent been out before but would love to Ive done mock hunts etc. Just never had a horse to properly hunt on were abouts are you based? Who do you go out with?
 
Based on Oxon/Berks/ bucks Borders and hunt with Vale of Aylesbury with Garth & South Berks. Tiger_Eye posted some lovely photos of my 2 cobs at the opening meet- see Picture Gallery- We are quite hard to miss!
 
Is it very wrong for someone of 21 to hunt in a tweed jacket? I'm currently riding a lovely pony and would like to take her out just for the odd day if I can. I only own a tweed jacket and don't really want to buy a black/blue just for the few days on which I may be able to take her out.
 
I don't think it would be wrong for you to hunt in a tweed jacket. Our hunt committee were considering whether everyone should wear tweed so less attention is drawn to hunt staff etc by the antis. (We have lots of solicitors involved with our hunt!) If I go out this season I would have to wear my keepers tweed as I can't fit into my very expensive hunt coat!
 
No it is not wrong by any means! Like you say it is not worth you buying a dark jacket for only a few days out!
