What color is Sherwin Williams Vintage?
Sherwin Williams Vintage SW 9528 is a muted, medium-depth khaki with a gently earthy cast. Its blend of softened olive, brown, and gray gives it a warm, weathered appearance without reading overly yellow or green. In bright daylight, Vintage can look lighter and more stone-like, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its deeper brown-olive undertones. It suits living rooms, studies, mudrooms, and exterior trim where a grounded neutral feels more substantial than beige. Pair it with creamy off-whites, charcoal accents, aged brass, natural oak, or dark brown leather for a layered, material-focused look.

What are Sherwin Williams Vintage undertones?

LRV of Vintage
Vintage has an LRV of 23.5% and refers to Medium colors that reflect a lot of light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 23.5%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
