I need a new jacket, and have seen so many different colour jackets being worn. Can you wear any colour! i:e brown, gray ect ect. Or is it just for pro jumpers? to have the option of colours. Don't really want the norm, like a black or blue
 
i think there is a rule about wearing red jackets but im sure any other colour anyone can wear i used to wear grey and no-one said anything!

It's in the rule book. Colours can be green, grey, blue, black, and maroon, but red is for top 10 (I think?) and blue with red collar top 200.
 
I wanted a maroon but they were all so expensive, so I got a decent black one, and put some blingy buttons on to match my bridle and saddle =)
 
Ive got a brown pin stripe jacket. The colours in the rule book relate to the JW jackets and the Navy with Red is normally for those on a nations cup team but loads of people have the Kingsland Navy with Red jacket so whatever floats your boat!
 
If you go on bsja website, then to rule amendments and go down to the latest pdf for rule changes it tells you what colour jackets are now allowed and the new style jump jackets and what colours are allowed.
will try and put link up, try this

I'm a bit of a traditionalist, and I wear a navy Pikeur jacket & white breeches when I compete Juniors, and tweed & fawn breeche when I compete Seniors. I wear tweed seniors as technically I'm still a Junior, and I just feel it shows the seniors respect =/ But I'm weird like that.

But yes, I would say traditional and flattering navy / black jackets, although I don't mind the Charcoal pinstripe ones - but I wouldn't wear one.
 
Im am bit dull and I have a navy jacket that I love, it fits really well and I wear it for everything. Although if I can find a tweed that fits as well, I will be having it!
 
Im also looking for a new showjacket andi have seen a couple of people wearing electric blue jackets and i now want one

You like Electric Blue?
 
The J Van D royal blue ones are lovely =]
Look on the Joshue Jones site, and i'm looking for a new jacket, currently stuck between a navy pinstripe from equiport or the new gpa trophy jacket hmmm spoilt for choice!
 
I have a grey hacking type one, not strictly a tweed which is pretty much the same colour as my horse (before he puts all his dirty horse hairs on it

I would like a smart pikeur grey pinstripe one though, or any other ones that won't make me look like a tramp like I do now
