Navy blue is a color, an especially dark shade of blue. Some people mistake navy blue for black, especially when concerning clothing. Navy blue got its name from the dark blue (contrasted with white) worn by sailors in the Royal Navy since 1748 and subsequently adopted by other navies around the world. In the US Navy and the Canadian Navy, many uniforms which are called "blue" [US (e.g. Working Blues and Service Dress Blues) Canada (uniforms 1, 1A, 2B, 3, 3A, 3B (winter), 3C) are such a dark shade that they appear black (see Uniforms of the United States Navy).
