Barbour Beadnell coat Sage or Olive

I’m thinking to get this coat but I can not decide on the colour.
Is the Sage more like khaki green?
I saw the olive and I can see it’s more brown then green- though still very pretty but I wonder about the sage.
Anyone has one?

The Olive has def got a brown tinge to it, the sage is a truer green.

I think sage is the classic Barbour dark green www.barbour.com/uk/barbour-beadnellr-wax-jacket-lwx0667sg91

Pretty sure that is the colour mine started off as.

Thank you guys. I try to find a true sage pic but anytime I found some pic it’s even pic of olive posed as sage.
Would you say it’s Sage like a khaki green?
I love green colours but I know there is lots of shades of it.
My friend just got the olive one so I saw that in real life but I wonder about the Sage.

@Postdatedpandemic I checked the link on Barbour website but on the pic the sage looks just like olive.

I think this is a fairly decent comparison of the two. I have the olive and really like that, but sage is definitely the original I think.

@Gladioli23
Thank you. I defo like the sage better.
I was just thinking if sage is like blueish/green shade.
I had a Joules jacket in sage and was like light green/ blue colour. Not so nice as pictured so returned it.
Also do you there any issues with the oily vac coating?
I read that it can make clothes greasy or things like seating..
thank you

I haven't had any issues with my jacket getting things oily, even straight after rewaxing but I don't live in a house where I know if I would notice, and obviously I don't usually sit on upholstery in my coat, but it's not noticeably greasy?

@Gladioli23 I meant in the car as our car has like suede / leather coverings. Thank you.
