WASHINGTON — What shade is House Speaker John Boehner’s tan? His bronze skin tone can be compared to a Sherwin-Williams paint color wheel, according to The New York Times.

Using the handy Sherwin-Williams Color Visualizer, the New York Times uploaded a high-resolution, tightly cropped picture of the speaker from a news conference this week.

It’s closest match? “Spicy Hue” and “Husky Orange.”

The comparison to shades of paint probably won’t bother Boehner who recently said,  “I’m pretty comfortable in my own skin.”
