Vista Paint Fernwood 8402 on a wall, hex #C4C5B1
Sherwin-Williams Softened Green SW 6177 on a wall, hex #BBBCA7

The closest Sherwin-Williams paint to Vista Paint Fernwood (8402) is Softened Green SW 6177, a delta-E of 3.36 away — the nearest Sherwin-Williams makes, and near enough for most rooms, but it is not an exact copy.

Softened Green is 3.8 LRV points darker, so the room will read slightly deeper. Undertone reads as yellow undertone against yellow undertone, at chroma 11.3 and 10.6.

Codes are not transferable between manufacturers and no brand publishes a conversion table, so every figure here is measured from the published hex values rather than taken from a chart.
