Etymology
Oxford-gray joins Oxford, the English city known for its old university clothes and the fabric called 'Oxford', with gray, the color. Think of deep, bluish-grey suits, shirts, and uniforms from that formal style—so Oxford-gray means a dark, bluish-grey shade often used for formal wear and uniforms.
