Brown dressage show coat?

Does anyone know of any simple/ non-blingy dark brown dressage show coats? I’d prefer one that doesn’t have any contrasting piping/ fabric as well. Seems hard to find!

I’m also on the smaller side (5’4" with a shorter torso) so one that is petite-friendly would be a bonus!

FYI - Horseware (AA brand owner) is 20% off from a lot of vendors in the Memorial Day sales

RJ Classics has their Harmony (mostly mesh) coat in Chocolate. They offer short lengths - https://rjclassics.com/product/harmony-ladies-show-coat/

Is that colour actually brown? In photos it looks more like a dusty grey-black. It’s hard to tell online! I unfortunately don’t have a lot of tack stores in my area, and they have a very limited collection of brands that they carry so I probably won’t be able to see it in-person.

Does anyone here have a Fair Play show jacket (specifically the “Taylor Chic” one?). It comes in a very lovely dark brown, but I haven’t been able to find any unedited photos of it/ pictures of it actually in action that aren’t taken by the manufacturer.
If someone has it and a photo of it, would you mind sharing?

Not sure if this picture attachment will work, but the AA Motionlite espresso is definitely a brown.

I also had a FairPlay (Michelle) in brown- a nice color, but I preferred a coat without white trim. Their fabric is nice, but when I chose another - solid- brown coat, went with the AA instead of a different FairPlay mode.

I have an older RJ classics in Navy. Not nearly as much mesh as these but love the fit, and the combination of zipper/buttons. The chocolate color looks awesome!

Schockemohle makes mesh jackets now also, they have brown too.

I have two of AAs and I love them. The brown version looks nice!

Smartpak has free returns on sized items. Order it, if you don’t like it, all it cost you was a trip to the UPS store.
