Valspar

Woolen Sox

T566

The useful read on Woolen Sox is golden tan, with orange-gold warmth doing the steering. It feels most natural on bedroom walls, especially with a simple finish nearby. Morning light is a better test than a quick look under overheads.

Keep busy pattern away at first so the golden tan quality can settle. Let wood guide it. Look at it beside the actual cabinet sample if millwork is involved.

Woolen Sox 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.
