Show shirts for hunters?

I am looking to buy a ratcatcher shirt this season, for last year I just wore a colored tank underneath my navy coat and I wanted a full hunter outfit. I only do schooling shows, and they aren't very strict on the rules (One girl showed in pajama pants).


I want a shirt that is a bit darker, for when in the summer they say you can take your jacket off, I want a shirt that looks nice on a average weighted person with a slight tummy roll that I don't want showing through my shirt.





Anyways, I have a navy jacket and either tan or horse-spit colored breeches. My horse is a sorrel tobiano thoroughbred and I show in a white saddle pad so it doesn't have to match the pad. I want it to look good with my horse and my breeches and my coat. Oh, and it has to be on the cheaper side. Nothing over 60.00 if you can. Thanks!

Something that always looks classic in the hunter ring with a navy jacket is a deep lilac-colored (purple) or a blue long sleeved show shirt...(long sleeved is better in the summer because it keeps the sweat from making your jacket sleeves stick to your arms...and when you take off your jacket in cases of extreme heat, it still looks very "polished") Be sure to wear a simple, flat leather belt with your breeches- that will do wonders to hide your "tummy roll"-





Good luck!
Reply:i'd go on google and type in elaborate hunter show jackets for sale and see what comes up. maybe you could order it on a site, since a lot of sites have different jackets avalible.
