When is navy better than black?

Whenever the product itself is dark. Navy holds the same premium register while leaving a tonal gap, so a black bottle or a charcoal garment still reads as a shape rather than a hole in the frame.

Which navy does this page use?

It fills with #0B2545, a deep blue that stays clearly blue on a phone screen rather than collapsing to near-black. Any hex works in the picker if you have a brand navy.

Will text be readable over it?

White and pale text reads well on navy this deep. Mid-tone brand colours often do not — check the contrast before you export a frame that will carry copy.

How to put your product on a dark blue background

Start from a photo

Click "Start from a photo" and pick a PNG or JPG of any size. The cutout runs in your browser, so the image is never uploaded to a server.

Keep the dark blue fill

Dark blue (#0b2545) is already selected once the background is gone. Swap it for any other colour with the swatches or the picker.

When a dark blue background is the right call

Navy is the useful answer to a problem black creates. It reads as premium and serious in the same way, but it sits a step above true black, so a dark product keeps a visible edge instead of merging with the frame.

Works for

Dark and matte products, watches, spirits, menswear, finance and B2B imagery, and any premium frame that will be placed on a dark page.

Watch out for

It flattens navy products for the same reason black flattens black ones. If what you sell is already dark blue, move the ground warmer or lighter rather than trying to light your way out of it.
