Green is always correct and looks smart. If you want to show seriously then stay well away from blue!!

I am not suggesting you spend anywhere near this amount (ebay is your friend!) but this is the idea

this ^^, green is always correct! You can get all sorts of colours in the overcheck (as bright, or not, as you like). If you aren't wanting to spend a fortune then the Shires Huntingdon ones are really lovely.

it's a dark green but yes it does look brown!. Green goes great with a piebald, i'd show you my old pony but unfortunately i'm at work right now.

These are all wearing green tweeds, but depending on the overcheck it can make them look brown, grey or green in photos. My jacket is most definately green with a red and gold overcheck but in photo's it looks brown

You can't go wrong with green as it goes with just about any colour horse. I have two tweeds, one is a dark green Alexander James which I wear with a navy hat which looks super on Farra who is a chestnut colour and for Stinky who is a dark bay skewbald, I have a dark brown tweed from Mrs Candy which I wear with a brown hat.

There are many tweeds out there, in all shades and with different colour overchecks. In the past, I have had some great bargains second hand and would personally buy a good quality second hand tweed than a cheap new one.

I have seen some people show a piebald in a grey hat with a green/grey tweed which looks very nice and is a bit different.
