Apologies if this is in the wrong section...


I recently ordered some "Saftey Orange" paracord from an Amazon.com seller to wrap my Izula with. The paracord that came says "G.I. Plus", and is packaged exactly like this:

The paracord I have though, looks not quite as 'neon orange' as what I see on the web.

Does anyone know if there are multiple colors of Orange Paracord? I'm asking because I purchased some 300 lb test cord at REI, which is slimmer than 550 para, but is much much more neon orange. Did the seller just send me the wrong stuff?

i'm sure different manufacturers have different dye formulas. All the 550 cord i have came from countycomm.com the orange is a nice bright orange. http://www.countycomm.com/550cord.htm here are a couple of pics of how the countycomm orange paracord looks:

Those pics of yours look a bit darker than what is on the site you purchased them from. I guess I need to take a pic to show, but I can't upload images. :(
