I am assuming that Mapedition's color "Foliage green" is the brighter green color and the "OD green" is the more duller olive drab like olive drab is suppose to be?
I believe that I am seeing a lot of mislabeled Maxpedition gear on the net labeled OD green and it is this brighter "live" looking green and does not look Olive Drab at all. And also visa versa, something labeled "Foliage green" and it looks olive drab.
Can a Maxpedition gear owner please clarify this for me so that I do not order the wrong color. I am wanting Olive drab. Thanks in advance.

O.D. is the brighter color.
The dull colored O.D. version should be Ranger Green.
Foliage green(there is no green in foliage green) is actually "grey".

FWIW,

Ranger green is my favorite.
IF I figure out why I need a Mongo, it will be in Khaki Foliage so I can add pouches without angering the Tactical Tim Gunns of the world.
