Explorer Khaki vs Boulder
Where Explorer Khaki belongs to Behr's range, Boulder is a Cloverdale Paint color. Both sit in the beige-greige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. Explorer Khaki (LRV 42) reflects noticeably more light than Boulder (LRV 39), a difference of 3 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. At ΔE 2.2, these are close — the kind of difference that matters when choosing between them, but doesn't read strongly in a finished room.
