Default Need Help choosing border

I have attached 3 pictures. First one has a stripe and blue blend (which is also in the quilt). The second one has a neutral with a vine print. The 3rd picture has all 3 of them laid across the center of the quilt. I can attach the stripe going either vertical or horizontal. The quilt is for a man and has some wildlife in it-ducks, dogs, camp equip. Cannot decide which one if any would be good. Thanks for your opinions.

My DH says the stripe is too busy. He likes the tan.

I like the stripe best but the others look good too. That just my 2 cents worth!

I'd do the beige after the brown and then cut your binding out of the stripe, but at a slight tilt so it looks like its running around the edge of your quilt. Lovely quilt!
