Kangaroo vs Agreeable Gray
Where Kangaroo belongs to Benjamin Moore's range, Agreeable Gray is a Sherwin-Williams color. Hue-wise, Kangaroo belongs to the beige-greige family and Agreeable Gray to the greige-grey family. Agreeable Gray (LRV 60) reflects noticeably more light than Kangaroo (LRV 44), a difference of 16 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Kangaroo runs red while Agreeable Gray is decidedly warm, which means they'll respond very differently to warm vs cool light sources. With a ΔE of 12.8, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question.
