This thread is going to discuss the mutt pheno In South Africa, also known in the country as coloureds, which is how I'm going to refer to them as
Coloured people have a wide mix, including Khoisan, Bantus, European(mostly dutch, german and French), Indians, and Southeast Asian, most coloreds in the western cape predominantly have this mixture though, khoesan(32-43%), Bantu (20-36%), European(21-28%) and Asian (9-11%). All this genetic mixture mostly started from early encounters of Asian (Malay, Philippines (slaves)) European(Dutch, German or French), and African(Bantu) males with indigenous Khoisan females around the Cape of Good Hope 400 years ago. There is one thing to note though, and that is that not all coloreds are the same, for example, a coloured from the Transvaal will have a little more East Asian and Madagascan influence than one from the Cape.
, mid-high set cheekbones, somewhat wide or round lips,wide-ish nose, average frame and lastly the average height is 170cm(5'6) for men.

Introduction
Since this race/pheno is pretty niche and only found in South Africa, this is going to give a lot of info to you already. Firstly the term coloured is derived from the apartheid regime who had to create four racial classifications, which are black African, White, Indian, and Coloured(mixed). Coloureds are only around 8% of the South African population(including me lol). Coloureds played a huge role during the apartheid era in resisting the white oppression. Coloureds also have a diverse and unique genetic heritage. The main languages most colored speak in is English and Afrikaans

Appearance
It's going to be a little hard to pin-point and generalize the features that stand out for most coloured people so that's why I just picked out a couple of people that identify as/or look coloured to me. The hair is mostly black or brown, t50 dark eye color, lighter or darker than mid brown
