Sherwin Williams

Foxy

SW 6333

Foxy is a warm, earthy red grounded by a brown undertone that keeps it from reading too bright or orange. With an LRV of 17, it absorbs considerable light and functions well as an accent wall color, exterior trim, or front door statement in traditional or craftsman-style homes. The brown base gives it a terracotta-adjacent quality under warm lighting.

It pairs effectively with Alabaster and Creamy for lighter trim contrast, Naval for a complementary deep accent, and Secret Garden for an earthy, layered scheme.

Foxy in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.

LRV measures how much light a color reflects, from 0 (black) to 100 (pure white). Below about 50 a color needs good lighting to avoid going flat, 60 and up helps brighten a room, and most whites sit above 80.
