			I had a blaze-orange one.  The surface was sort of rubberized -- unlike my black one which is a smooth, shiny, hard plastic.  The plain black one has been great. 
 
The rubberized one lasted about 3 uses.  The latches ripped through the plastic overcoat and couldn't be put back.   Even the second one, after I'd 'learned' and was very gentle with it.
