Is it "orange enough" for Colorado?

[Plj271]

Does anyone know if the First Lite Springer Vest in Orange is "orange enough" for the Colorado day-glo requirement?

That is what spurred my question, what do they consider "sufficient brightness"? It is vague enough to cause concern.

Looking at the pics of it online it would be fine. It looks like any other blaze orange vest.

I agree. If the Springer doesn’t qualify, there are a ton of vests that don’t....

I can't think of a orange something made by an outdoor company that wouldn't work. I think it is meant to avoid matte orange brown such as Cleveland Browns orange.
