Ok, keepers of the sacred thread. PANTONE colors are NOT just associated with printing. PANTONE provides color matching for textile and other industries as well. The BSA uniform cloth and embroidery colors are as follows, along with the associated link to the PANTONE textile reference. Incidentally, you can order cloth swatches for those of you who are really serious about this stuff:

PANTONE 19-0511 TCX Grape Leaf (http://www.pantone.com/pages/pantone/colorfinder.aspx?c_id=4279)

PANTONE 15-1119 TCX Taos Taupe (http://www.pantone.com/pages/pantone/colorfinder.aspx?c_id=1646)

Do you have access to the Pantone cross-referencing system?
Can you figure out what Pantone says are the matching PMS numbers?

Oh Yeah. I bought a pair of Thorlo scout hiking socks last week.

On the package it says "Grape Leaf"
