Tack colour?

[IrishSportHorse]

Hi guys,
trying to find a nice colour tack for my bright bay horse.
Definately getting the shires optimus york saddle.
Should I get my bright bay the chocolate with white stitching? Havana with white stitching? Havana by itself? or black?

Thanks a lot

I have black tack for my bay mare.

It does look verrry nice in black and WAY smarter but I just think on her it makes her look quite boring? Could you look at her photos in my album and let me know what you think? xxxxx

My bright bay is in plain havana and I think it looks nice on her! Go for white stitching if you want it to be a bit fancier, but I don't like white stitching as I find it goes off-colour over time.

Black looks very smart on your horse If you want to liven it up then choose some brightly coloured saddle cloths. Loads cheaper than changing tack too.

So you wouldn't say havana? deffffinately not brown on bays EURGH can't stand it, ANY shade haha!
So you'd say black over havana? cause she's quitean orangey bay hehe & would you still say leather tack for an unbalanced 5 year old?
Ahhh that's very trueeexxx

I wouldn't rule out brown at all. Lots of people prefer it to black and synthetic or leather is pretty much a personal choice whether your horse is unbalanced or not

Black on a bay would be lovely. Tack used to come in brown, or brown I was always warned that black tack was cheap and nasty. Obviously times have changed, amazing how they do.

We use brown on our dark bay

Nothing beats nice plain havana tack but then I'm a boring brown sort of person, I'm brunette, horse is bay with no white markings, dogs are chocolate labs, tack is brown, competition numnahs are brown etc.
