Lamb's Wool vs Slumber Sloth paint color comparison

Lamb's Wool vs Slumber Sloth

Both from Sherwin-Williams's palette. Lamb's Wool reads as beige, while Slumber Sloth reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Slumber Sloth (LRV 56) reflects noticeably more light than Lamb's Wool (LRV 48), a difference of 8 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. Both lean warm, so they'll behave similarly in mixed or changing light conditions. With a ΔE of 10.5, the contrast is hard to miss. These aren't variations on a theme — they're two different answers to the same question. Below, 5 simulated room previews show how each color reads at scale — real-room photos will be added as they become available.

Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
