RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

[Ghillie Zen]

Been seeing a surge in popularity with RANGER GREEN gear lately and have been giving thought to picking up a field set from Crye for testing. The tone seems like a good balance for those needing a color that can transition well between day and night ops. Any thoughts or impressions would be appreciated.........

Thanks,
Zac

Ranger green looks a lot like an Air Force sage flight suit.

Here are the colors as they come from Eagle:

+1 on color chart redman.

makes me like ranger green that much more after seeing that comparison. it's a good mid-tone.

All they had when I servered was Woodland BDU's with LBE' in O.D. so I liked them.
But I like the Ranger Green and think it's a better color then the O.D.

Just my .02

Agree with you on od comparison. Triad's picture gives a good look at the differences too. Definately a superior option to od.

What happened to good old woodland??? ACU = shit I do like MARPAT woodland and desert and why the hell would the Airforce need tiger stripe and the Navy have blue MARPAT.....and the Multicam has to grow on me.

It was nice when all branches had the same color!

The Ranger green looks like a faded OD,,,I like it!

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

thats what happened to woodland...

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

Ranger... that rear bag I sent you forever ago is in Ranger Green... a RedMan creation no less....

 

[SIERRAWHISKEY]

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

Use a faded woodland.....and put that Multicam in the jungle,you still can't sell me on multispam.

 

[Impact]

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

"multispam"...lol...kinda true though, they are good at marketing

 

[brutus1776]

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

i gotta back sierra on this one.
although, if anyone wants to convince me on multi cam, i'll gladly except a pair of those 300 some dollar crye multicams, to give them a proper eval.

Ranger Green is also called Castor Grey..isnt it Stu?

 

[SIERRAWHISKEY]

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

Nick Castor Grey is foliage...

 

[RedMan*]

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

Foliage Green was called Military Grey for a short time.
Never heard of the castor name.

There is no "green" in Foliage Green.

Has anyone seen a company besides Crye that produces tac uniforms in ranger green?

Re: RANGER GREEN - anyone here field ranger green?

We switched to RG vests aver a year ago and we like them. Though we are wearing woodland digi the RG is a great color.

Here is my RG vest with a OD hydro carrier and FB pouch on the back.

Front of vest...

RG is the shit. Very good balance of everything.

The Tactical Tailor Swatches:

Ranger Green (top) OD (bottom):

There are some really good comparisons of various greens here:

I was told by a dealer that OD is being phased out...
