Prior to reading this if you'd asked me what color khaki was I would have said, "A light tan or sand color. Unless you're from across the pond, where their khaki is what we refer to as 'OD green'."

And I have said as much many, many times.


In British English and some other Commonwealth usage, khaki may also refer to a shade of green known as olive drab.
