The Red Planet Colour
Glide 50158 Mars is a deep, iron-rich red-orange — warmer and more orange-influenced than standard red, with the specific warm depth of the Martian surface. On warm red-orange fabrics and designs where the red should feel deep, warm, and slightly orange-influenced, Mars provides the most distinctive and accurate integration.
