Benjamin Moore Hale Navy: the best, most classic navy blue
If you've been looking for the PERFECT dark blue paint colour, have I GOT THE COLOUR FOR YOU! Whether you're painting an entire room, feature wall, front door or cabinets, Hale Navy has the potential to be the PERFECT navy blue – but does this mean it's perfect for you? We'll see!
Can I get a HAAAALE YES for Haaaale Navy?
What type of paint colour is Hale Navy? Is it a real navy blue?
You better believe it. Hale Navy is more classic than primary blue and less regal than royal blue – it really is the EPITOME of 'navy blue'.
Is Hale Navy a warm or cool paint colour?
Hale Navy is definitely a cool paint colour – not a wink o' warmth to be found in this fella!
In these next photos, notice how Hale Navy subtly shifts between day and night, looking SLIGHTLY more muted in the second photo (night)…
With its striking blue hue, you can expect Hale Navy to sit well in any exposure. Some blues with more gray in them can fall a bit flat or dull in rooms with low light or flat exposures – not this one. With its extra dose of chroma (colour), Hale Navy always rises to the occasion.

What's the LRV of Hale Navy?
Hale Navy has a VERY dark LRV of 8, however, it's still a bit lighter than its MAIN competition. This low LRV means it's WELL into the dark range (learn more HERE).
Not sure what LRV is? It could save your paint lovin' life – read all about it HERE.
What does this low LRV mean?
Well, if you have a super bright room or wall, while Hale Navy WILL look lighter than expected (as will any colour in a bright situation), it holds its blue hue CONSIDERABLY well. On the other hand, if you have a low light room, you have to be careful as with its low LRV, it can sometimes look a TOUCH black if you don't hit it with some good interior lighting. This isn't to say it won't still look PRETTY, but you might not see the degree of blue you're hoping for.

What are the undertones and general colour profile of Hale Navy?
Hale Navy is absolutely, positively blue with no obvious leaning towards violet or green (the two main tendencies of blue). Again, if you put it in a dark room, you should still see the 'colour' of it as long as you have SOME reasonable interior lighting.
What's the best way to sample Hale Navy?
Like with every paint colour, I highly recommend using SAMPLIZE . Samplize is a peel & stick paint sample that you can easily move around your room for over HALF THE COST of traditional sample pots – and they deliver right to your front door!

Is Hale Navy a good colour for the exterior of my home?
Hale Navy could be an interesting choice for exterior siding if you want a strong, striking look with white trim, but it has to suit the other features of your home and it could overwhelm many stone and brick surfaces.
On the other hand, a front door colour, Hale Navy is pretty friggin' fantastic…
So, it's not a hard-no for the exterior, it's just a 'tread carefully'. And make sure you SAMPLE and COMPARE Hale Navy to some of the other popular blue paint colours!
