Colors that go with #774e31
Royal Blue, Rust and Champagne lead the list. Each partner is a real named colour with the reason it works — a wheel relationship, a neutral that carries it, or a pairing lifted from a palette or brand system that actually shipped — and every pair opens in the palette tool.
Royal Blue #4169e1

Steel Blue #4682b4
complementarySteel Blue sits directly opposite #774e31 on the wheel — the strongest contrast one hue can give another, so use it small: a button, a link colour, one highlight.
