The laws governing the use of blaze orange for hunters vary significantly from one State to another. While some States mandate its use, others offer it as a recommended precaution. Understanding these regional differences is crucial for any hunter, as it ensures not only compliance with local regulations but also a safer hunting experience overall.

Below is a list of blaze orange measurements on Marsupial products and an introductory guide to blaze orange regulations in each State. Please use this as a starting point only, as state laws change and are often not as simple as listed. Many states that require blaze orange during firearm seasons do not require blaze orange during archery seasons.

It is best to consult the State you plan to hunt to ensure full compliance.
