The color is a gray close to khaki. It's very light, and the material is 100% cotton. It's a shirt jacket with a very good feel against the skin and no lining. The sleeves and length are a bit short, so you can wear a short-sleeved shirt underneath and lightly put it on, perfect for this season. It goes well with either light-colored or black bottoms, and I think it's an item that's easy to match with both pants and skirts. I think I bought this item 7 or 8 years ago, but my body shape has changed, so I'm putting it up for sale this time. Color...Gray
