New Leopard canvas color?

I am replacing my worn stack pack cover on my Leopard 40, and want to update it to be more like the current models. Does anyone know what Sunbrella color grey is used for Leopard sailing cats?

Re: New Leopard canvas color?

In Sunbrella, last time I bought some, I bought "Cadet Grey". A quick search showed me none. I looked at their "Heritage" line, which is most $$, and they had there, "Heritage Sky" and "Heritage Slate," with the slate being darker. My Cadet grey that i used for dinghy chaps, is about the color intensity of the Heritage sky.

Good luck with it. The costs for it have really gone up. Maybe a phone call to Leopard to learn what they are using (it could even be West German acrylic canvas, different dye lots and all that.)
