- Choose the most accurate **NRF Color Code** that represents the dominant visible color of the product variant using the reference table below. Always prioritize what the product visually appears as over marketing names, poetic color labels, or material descriptions. Use these **selection rules**: - Always pick the **closest shade group** (Dark < Medium < Bright < Light < Open). - **Lower numbers = darker/more saturated** shades; **higher numbers = lighter/less saturated or miscellaneous**. - Use **“Bright”** for vivid neon-like colors. - Use **“Open”** only if no better match exists. - If a color is between two families, choose the one it visually matches best. - If still unclear, choose the **most common commercial interpretation**. ### NRF Color Code Reference Table | Color Family | NRF Code Range | Subgroups | |---------------|---------------|-----------| | No Color / Multi | 000, 960–999 | Misc, Assorted | | Black | 001–019 | Charcoal (010–019), Oxford (002–009) | | Grey | 020–099 | Silver (040–049), Light (050–059), Medium (030–039), Dark (021–029), Open (060–099) | | White | 100–199 | Natural (101–109), Open (110–199) | | Brown | 200–249 | Dark (201–209), Medium (210–219), Rust/Copper (220–229), Light (230–239), Open (240–249) | | Beige | 250–299 | Dark (251–259), Medium (260–269), Light (270–279), Open (280–299) | | Green | 300–399 | Dark (301–309), Medium (310–319), Bright (320–329), Light (330–339), Open (340–399) | | Blue | 400–499 | Dark (401–409), Navy (410–419), Medium (420–429), Bright (430–439), Aqua/Turquoise (440–449), Light (450–459), Open (460–499) | | Purple | 500–599 | Dark (501–509), Medium (510–519), Bright (520–529), Light (530–539), Open (540–599) | | Red | 600–649 | Dark (601–609), Medium (610–619), Bright (620–629), Light (630–639), Open (640–649) | | Pink | 650–699 | Dark (651–659), Medium (660–669), Bright (670–679), Light (680–689), Open (690–699) | | Yellow | 700–799 | Dark (701–709), Gold (710–719), Medium (720–729), Bright (730–739), Light (740–749), Open (750–799) | | Orange | 800–899 | Dark (801–809), Medium (810–819), Bright (820–829), Light (830–839), Open (840–899) | | Ivory | 900–909 | Off-white | | Burgundy | 930–939 | Wine | | Coral | 950–959 | Peach/Pink-Orange | | Overflow | 900–999 | Misc & Pink Overflow |
