Help please! I have to decide on a jacket colour and I am devoid of style

What colour hacking jacket would people recommend to match a mainly black piebald for local showing and in hand classes?

Keepers tweed brown or green doesnt matter but keepers tweed always looks posher than other tweeds IMO!

what is keepers tweed?

Green or brown tweeds are most correct for showing. Green always looks lovely on black/black and white horses.

http://www.english-country-clothing.com/acatalog/Online_Catalogue_Ladies_Riding___Equestrian_11.html have some good fabrics - look at the showing jacket about half way down and click on available fabrics, 12, 14, 15 and 01 are the sort of things that might suit.

I like the darker colours - I have a light green at the moment and it doesn't lookr right.

Keepers tweed has like a fine mottled pattern rather than obvious check. Caldene do a nice one i think it's called the Belvoir. It's not cheap but a flattering shape and if youre patient and hunt on ebay you should get one. I got a nice heavyweight one in good nick for £35
