BASE COLOURS
The 3 base horse colours are black, bay and chestnut. Horses may express various tones of those base colors, and some colors are affected in more dramatic ways by other genetics. For some, that occurs gradually over time (gray, roan) and others express less common coloration from birth or as they mature (dilutions). The presence of many unique genetic markings that a horse can express makes for a huge variety of potential combinations that can occur on top of a base coat.

WHITE MARKINGS
White markings (excluding roan, rabicano and leopard complex) can also be referred to as Pinto - and the term can apply to horses expressing one or more of certain markings in the presence of different genetic influences. These markings create minimal, medium or extensive areas of white on a horse.

NOTE:

  • Certain combinations of Pinto markings often have their own terms:
    • Tobiano + Overo = Tovero
    • Any pinto markings + Appaloosa = Pintaloosa
  • Horses with white markings are often mistakenly be referred to indiscriminately as Paint, however Paint horses are a breed that heavily feature Pinto markings, the term is not specific to the markings themselves.
  • In the UK, horses are commonly referred to as Piebald (Black & White) or Skewbald (Brown & White) when describing Pinto markings.

DON'T SEE YOUR FAVORITE COAT HERE?
Originally, SWEM planned to include only 16 coats + 2 secret coats. That number was greatly surpassed to bring over 100 coats ahead of V1's release. With so much to do and so many potential genetics or coat variations to consider, some coats inevitably did not make it in. Look out for them in the genetics update in V2!
