I am going to be a trend setter in the dressage arena and go brown. Got the tweed which is primarily brown with a discrete red and blue check (sounds horrid but looks nice) and I am going to get bown boots. Cream jods and stock with a flash of diamonte. Now I shall of course look gorgeous, but I need advice on the hat.
None of the tack shops stock brown. Could order but I don't want such a dark brown that it looks black, it must be a definite brown. Like the Fiona, whats that brown like? or any other recommendations for brown. Not Samshield please as I am tantruming about not being allowed that one.

love the idea of looking different , we always try and change the look for our showing so as to not blend in with the crowd , you will look great , as for the hat , Champion do a brown hat , (or they did 2 yrs ago ) , it wasnt a bad price either , my son bought one for in hand showing , best of luck sx

I've seen the Brown Fiona at the Saddlery it is quite a dark brown, but is very quality. Champion do a brown hat too, it is slightly lighter but not much different.
