What colour tack for a palomino

[R2R]

Please take a moment to answer this simple question I would do a poll but cant figure out how

 

[Spyda]

If it's not County level showing - black defo! Otherwise, I'd opt for dark Havana and oil it! That looks pretty black once it's oiled and you'll pass the etiquette for County showing, too

I used to own and show a palomino (but back in the early 1980's) when brown was the only 'acceptable' colour tack for showing. Things are less stringent these days! LOL.

Oh no he is getting a synthetic saddle and leather bridle, it is for my youngster....his first proper outfit as he currently is in borrowed stuff with a billion holes punched in the bridle and pads under the saddle (as advised by my saddle fitter lol)

Brown, not Newmarket though
Mind, I'd say that everytime because I am old and stuffy and don't like black.

I like either, black or dark brown.

Ooh you may have just saved my ned from black tack...I hate it too. I am also thinking of getting him a pink equine bridle with pink crystals

PINK C'mon, it's bad enough that the boy has to spend his life being called Yellow! Pink and Yellow! I wonder if they really give a flying fig what colour we dress them up in really though?

Brown! my palomino wears brown and really suits it
I think black looks a bit 'tacky' on a palomino IMO... having said that I don't really like on most colours

I know. Sky blue suits him better but might clash with my (pink) lorry

Love it! At least you can find it in the lorry park!
What colour are his blankets?

 

[R2R]

*coughs* eeer...pink!

I honestly (honestly) didnt mean it...it sort of just happened...I got the lorry, then the rugs (cheap off of ebay, I got 10 rugs for £100, all Jumpers horseline ones) , then the horse! Poor baby!

I agree, I think black tack is a bit tacky. Black looks ok on bays and geys, but brown is def best for pals and chestnuts.

However, I will not allow anything pink or sky/baby blue near my horse, yuk!

 

[R2R]

Thats what I thought marmalade...I have the famous virus "pinkusaddictivus" though and it is very hard to get rid of. Until I got my lorry, everything was black, brown or cream!!

Well, if you are going to clash, you may as well go the whole hog and do it properly! pink lorry, yellow horse, pink blankets, please tell me that his halter isn't pink too....you need to add some blue and purple to the palette.

I have been easing my mum (has proper barbie palo!) into the pink and purple over the last 6 years. She recently bought a purple schooling whip of her own volition

I bought her a purple sparkly leadrope for her birthday
