What is 'hazel' in Japanese?

Question:


Im trying to tell my Japanese friend that I have Hazel eyes but he doesnt know what it is. I cant find the right word. HELPPP :(
dont say hashibomi, i tried that

Answer:


Usu Cha iro 薄茶色, or 黄土色 Oudo iro should be OK.
クルミ色 Kurumi iro, which literally means walnut color, might be equivalent as hazel.
I don't think people understand hashibami iro. Myself didn't know that.
I don't think your friend is requiring not very much accurate description. He is just curious.
