I used Apple Barrel Tropical Blue.
It's a very bright baby blue which, in retrospect, isn't exactly the color I hoped it would "dry" to. I hoped it would darken just the slightest shade to be perfect. The picture doesn't show the contrast but it is a little too light to match Beenutt's decals like I wanted.
I also bought Apple Barrel "Neon Blue" which looked to be PERFECT in the bottle but it dries too dark.
I think the Tropical Blue color is close enough to use as the color for the socks...but I want to find a more accurate Electric Blue color for the jersey color when I attempt to paint the Alt Blue Jersey Panthers. I may actually play with mixing the 2 (Tropical Blue with a touch of the Neon Blue) to find the right combination for the jersey.
Long answer to a simple question, huh?
