The Saarloos breed is indead just like the Csw based on crossings between Wolf x GSD!
And since the start of the breed red and white pups did appear. Only with the red ones was also breeded. (in Holland this color red is mentionent as “forrest brown” )
And never were made official mixes with nordic breeds!

But maybe (like in all kind of breeds!!) some breeders did cheat and did make “crossings” and did registrate like Saarloos.
SWH colors accepted by breed standard are: Light till dark wolfgrey, light till dark brown (forrest brown), light creme till white . Wolfgrey with black nose, forrest brown with liver color nose, white both color noses are accepted but liver color is to prefer.

A lot about colors of GSD you can find HERE (3 pages and also photo’s)
