Although these are the main twenty-seven colors used in standard ways, this is not an exhaustive list of all possible colors in the game.
Savvy hat exception
The savvy hat, while an item of clothing, does not come in the same variety of colors as the other clothing in the game. While the OMs can manually create a savvy hat in any color, they do not do so except for extremely special incidents. The full list of possible savvy combination is viewable on the savvy hat page.

Other special colors
- Sea green, most commonly available as a chroma by trading in trinkets at a trading post.
- Silver and bronze, used on medals and pins to represent second (silver) and third (bronze) places. These (along with the standard color gold, which is used for first place) are called the "olympic colors." The olympic colors are also used as a highlight color for the Karkinos. Note: the metallic silver is not the same as the silver color that can be won from greedy brigands.
- Blue grey was found in gold boxes and in competitions and tournaments during April 2018. Familiars, a pet, trinkets, furniture, chromas, and clothing could all be won in the color. Note: a number of pets have a "blue grey" or "blue-grey" color, but those are greyer and/or darker than the new shade.
Each colonized island has its own navy, and each such navy has its own associated color. Please note that while these colors are from the palette of "standard" colors, they do not include any of the rare and/or expensive colors from that palette (such as black, purple, or maroon).
The clothes worn by the NPPs in that island's navy will all be of that island's navy's color. Furthermore, any clothes given by a pirate's home island's navy (for promotion in that navy) will also be of that island's navy's color.
Here is a list of the colors available for the island navies:
