Browband for chestnut

[abbylouise]

Hi

I just wanted a few opinions (as I've had some very conflicting ones!) on what colour browband would look good on my PBA, she's chestnut with a white blaze - struggling to upload a picture but will add one if I manage it!

Used to have a red white and royal blue one for our PBA. She is chestnut with a white blaze.

You see lots of chestnuts with red and maybe with some white and gold or blue. I think a nice burgundy also goes lovely with a chestnut
This website is quite good to advise www.horseplay.biz/choosing.htm

Thanks I like dark red but wasn't sure if it would suit her so I'm gonna have a look around, could do with a try before you buy haha!

Go to your local haberdashery and buy some cheap ribbon in the colours you fancy and just wrap it around the browband to give you an idea of the effect. Will cost you a couple of quid but much cheaper than a mistake with an expensive browband

[abbylouise]

that's a better idea haha! thanks

I love white brow bands on chestnuts very evening performance though if you get what I mean or greens look nice on a chestnut alot wear red xx

I had a purple and white edged with gold on my chestnut, green is also good, personally Im not keen on red on a chestnut, but have whatever you think looks best

I have a browband business. If you PM me your address I will send you some ribbon samples free of charge so you can see what colours suit your horse.

I have navy gold and a yellow gold on my skewbald who has a chestnut head. Mum says the reds look tacky on a chestnut but can see a burgundy being nice.

I used to use gold , burgundy , and navy blue on my chestnut , over the years i tried alsorts of colours , but thought they looked the best in the end

Some of the designs I've done for chestnut horses/ponies. I think they are all different shades, some you can put red on, others it clashes a bit and a burgundy sits better.

my daughter has shocking and pale pink with gold on her chestnut first ridden show pony, but then my little girl is 7, looks fantastic!

Thanks for all the replies I'm leaning towards burgundy with cream & gold at the moment but ill have to do a test match!

I previously had burgundy/red/gold on my chestnut mare, and then got a pure red and glittery one. Without a doubt the red one looks so much better- very flashy and stands out so much more!

I've used burgundy brown gold and cream on mine - browband was from prestige browbands. Looks really good. Horse is chestnut with a white star
