The bags stand out as the type containing expensive stuff. I would use black to keep them as under the radar as possible.

Here's that white 1510 I was talking about. I wish Pelican offered it as an actual color, so clean looking.

Another tan here. The black just gets so hot in any sunlight.

That white is an awesome color! I have two Pelican 1514s: black and desert tan. I'm thinking about picking up a third one and would like to get silver, but I'm a little bummed they are $35 more than the black ones at B&H.

I've got OD Green ones and Tan ones. Tan is pretty cool. They stand out.

Black... Yeah, steal it, your case looks like all the others. Nobody even notices the theif carrying it away since its black....

Does it matter... No, since you need a lock and cable to tether it to stuff anyways...

Well, I just broke down and ordered a silver one to go with my black and tan. Yes, it was $35 more, but it will be nice to have 3 different colors for color-coding purposes.

Yellow for me. Easy color to keep and eye on and no one has tried to take it so far! Too obvious!
