Khaki
The color khaki (UK: , US: ) is a light shade of tan with a slight yellowish tinge. Dr. Friedrich Carl Theis states that khaki is a "range of shades varied from grey to olive, and from olive to brown."
Khaki has been used by many armies around the world for uniforms and equipment, particularly in arid or desert regions, where it provides camouflage relative to sandy or dusty terrain. It has been used as a color name in English since 1848 when it was introduced as a military uniform. In Western fashion, it is a standard color for smart casual dress trousers for civilians, which are also often called khakis.
In British English and some other Commonwealth usage, khaki may also refer to a shade of green known as olive drab.
