Benjamin Moore

Crisp Khaki

234 / CC-578

Crisp Khaki is a medium beige with golden undertones that give it a warm, natural appearance similar to unbleached linen. Its LRV of 54.6 places it in the mid-range for light reflectance, so it reads as neither particularly light nor dark in most lighting conditions. The golden base keeps it from skewing gray or cool.

It pairs naturally with Manchester Tan and Muslin for a layered neutral palette. For contrast, Hale Navy or Hunter Green work well, while Golden Straw reinforces its warm undertone.
