Buy what you want. If you like the Camolite get it. I have a range of stuff from different brands, Korum, Sonik, Cyprinus, Drennan, ESP, Fox and Trakker. It is all practical and does what I want it to do, looks never come into it for me but I know plenty of people who think very different in that aspect

I like the curent range of luggage from fox, its pretty well thought out, but like you say prefer a more subtle look but these days everything is dpm and camo etc, just go with the flow dude use whatever bits suit ya fishing, i use fox bits, voyager and camolite, some gardner stuff, cotswold aquarius and aqua at the moment
although this re organising ive done over the lock down it will be a nightmare first day back fishing wont be able to find anything .
It is a bit sad that others choose to mock fishing luggage, Its custom thought out for the job, If you wanna stick everything in a matchbox and a 40 year old tupperware go for it, if you like to be organised or suffer OCD thats fine too . Im the same at work everything needs to have a place, and it needs to be in that place or i cant find it

All fishing luggage has to be totally functional to your particular needs that's why there are so many manufacturers out there....if the standard of quality is there and it fits your needs then spunk away.
The only companies luggage I've never owned any of is the Shimano range...It's like it's all been thought of by someone who's never been fishing in their life

Just get luggage that serves the purpose to cover your fishing...
I have alot of the fox camo lite bags (smaller items) large green Nash hi loader barrow bag that they fit nicely into... Rod bags are either speero dpm or ccp padded sleeves for my other set of rods, a speero dpm carryall for longer or France trips... Esp cool bags and a few other bits
A mix up but as others have said get what you need to do the job for you...

The Fox Camolite stuff is good kit , but only if you're a midget , it's just too small

Thanks for the reply mate, I have ordered the Ruckall and Tri sleeve from the voyager line. Slightly cheaper and green so not too much in your face and then some Camolite accessory pouches to go inside (Small, Medium & Large organisers, gadget pouch, brewkit bag & coolbag)
I think some people will just mock anything but I take it all with a pinch of salt as they most likley are just as bad. They will be typing their response about using a carrier bag and a sun lounger from a giant Nash Indulgance bedchair....sometimes I think it seems to be more trendy to fish like it was still the 80's.
I know the fish don't care what gear you have but I like to make sure I have half decent bits so I am not having to chop and change all the time. I still have some of my kit from 20 years ago and it works 100%. I work hard as a medic/trainer and don't drink or smoke so am fortunate to have a little spare each month, however it is certainly not massive amounts and all the tackle shops near me have closed down (We have a large AD about 30 miles away) so I like to find out other peoples views before buying bits. I was just thinking that an all camo set up might be all the trend now but soon fade out.
Thanks againg for the response. Appreciate it.

My OCD says that everything should match.....the problem is there's not a single luggage range that covers all bases for me....

Would it matter if it were a trend that faded out, not a question directed at you but would it matter, wouldn't you just keep on using it rather than replace for trend sake?

Agreed, when the time comes the marketing men will see to that.

Dpm luggage is not a new trend. I remember people on here saying it was a phase that will fade away about 10 years ago but its probably more popular now than it has ever been so its not going away any time soon.
