Help with colors!

Okay, my rig is desert camo w/ gold piping and a brown backpad and I am ordering a firefly suit but I want it to contrast some. I'm thinking either all brown with gold stripes or all gold with brown stripes. I like earth tones but I think an all brown suit might be too much and I've never seen an all gold suit, it's hard to picture in my head. Any ideas?

Maybe pull some of the colors in the camo print and mess around with those (instead of brown) and accent with the gold. Also, red seems to look pretty bad ass with the camo print.

Just go to an on-line jumpsuit designer. I think Tony Suits has one.

You only really need the ass of the suit to be camo. The rest can be any color you like.
Will you be wearing this suit in the Summer heat being beaten by sunrays? Or is it more of a suit for jumping in Great Britain? I would want a lighter primary color for a Summer suit.

Some classy suits I've seen are one color with a two-color triple stripe up the side. For example, all black with a yellow stripe with purple on either side of the yellow.

Then there's my suit. Checkerboard teal and magenta clown-hangover with the chest panels done in purple tiger-stripe. Can't miss it on video!

Pull.

Haha, I call it "in the ground, brown".

wow, interesting color choice, sounds like a circus clown puked on your shirt

I live in a place that has 3 seasons; moderate, warm, and hot. I'll only be using it when is moderate or warm, when it's hot I will just be jumping in shorts and a shirt.

I was thinking of doing tan or a biege type color, such as the light part of desert camo but I think that color would end up looking like crap. I am really leaning towards the gold with a brown stripe and a desert camo stripe but I don't know how the gold will look.

Anyone have a pic of a gold jumpsuit of somekind.

You're not talking metallic gold, are you?

no no, like an orangish yellow. It goes good with earth tones such as brown and tan.

Whew! Ok, I thought you were trying to create some porno, metallic, blind everyone else in the sky type suit.

Did you find an on-line jumpsuit designer yet? Don't make me Google!!!

I looked at Tony, Firefly, Flitesuit, Freakn, etc...

...Kurupee had one but no gold or brown. Symbiosis is the best I saw, it has gold but no brown or tan option. Do you know of something better?

I looked into Kurupee too but was put off by their lack of color selection so I emailed them. They have shit load more colored fabric than what is on the website. My advice, if worth anything, pick the manufacturer you like and then email/call them to help them help you with the design. Kurupees are WAY warm though (in my opinion).
