Read from the numbersBoth read warm. Mississippi Mud is a brown, Jacket a gray.
How they read
In their own wordsMississippi Mud is a deep, dark brown that Benjamin Moore says carries 'distinctive violet tones' — and it does: beside a plain chocolate brown it looks faintly plummy. With an LRV near 7 it is one of the darkest browns in the range.
Jacket is a Portola Roman Clay in a deep charcoal-brown — a black with the hardness taken out. Because Roman Clay is troweled on, the surface is never uniform: it shifts between soot and warm ash across a wall, with a soft, suede-like depth that no flat paint can match.
