An orange inventory for CS2 fits any budget: from the CZ75-Auto | Tigris and SG 553 | Tiger Moth at a couple of dollars to the AWP | BOOM from about $90 and the AWP | Desert Hydra at around $1,000 and up. Every one of these skins was released in CS:GO and carried over to CS2 with players' inventories. Below are 10 weapon skins where orange is the lead color, with current LIS-SKINS prices, plus knife and glove picks to match at the end.
Five-SeveN Orange Peel
Let's start with a skin whose name might remind you of a holiday treat. The texture of the Five-SeveN Orange Peel really does resemble orange peel, and the placement of bright orange and darker spots depends on the pattern index. Every copy looks slightly different, although none of the variants is especially valuable. Most wears cost under a dollar, and Factory New is about $3. The same design exists for the MP7 (noticeably pricier, from $15) and the MP9, though both are less popular. A brighter orange option for the MP7 is the MP7 | Abyssal Apparition from the Dreams & Nightmares Case, at about $5 to $7 in most wears and about $15 in Factory New.
USP-S Orion
Another good fit is the silenced USP-S Orion. Its black, gray and orange combination makes for a design that is genuinely pleasant to look at: lettering on the slide and suppressor, orange highlights and black-and-gray stripes along the top. Field-Tested and Minimal Wear cost about $45, Factory New about $85.
Desert Eagle Fennec Fox
It is also worth mentioning a skin for one of the most popular pistols in CS2, the Desert Eagle Fennec Fox. An intricate Eastern-style ornament frames a nimble desert fox looking toward the enemy. The skin belongs to the 2021 Mirage Collection and drops only from Souvenir Packages, so it is not cheap: roughly $160 in worn condition up to $360 in Factory New.
M4A1-S Atomic Alloy
The M4A1-S Atomic Alloy uses an anodized metal style, which lets designers combine metallic surfaces in different colors. The orange parts stand out thanks to the metallic shine, and the center of the body carries a hexagonal mesh pattern. The regular version starts at about $20, StatTrak at about $30.
CZ75-Auto Tigris
If you want cheaper orange skins for CS2, the CZ75-Auto Tigris is a good option. The grip is painted in an orange-to-black gradient, and the top of the body and the magazine carry stripes that resemble tiger fur. Most wears cost about $2, Factory New about $7.
AWP BOOM
The AWP has several skins dominated by orange, but the AWP BOOM clearly leads among them. The body is covered in comic-book fragments with explosion sounds and exclamations. Only black and orange are used, so the skin looks truly vivid. It exists in just three wears: Field-Tested costs about $90, Minimal Wear about $110 and Factory New about $340.
AWP Desert Hydra
If you prefer more detailed artwork, take a look at the AWP Desert Hydra, which shows a monster from Greek mythology on a bright orange background, with distinctive ornaments on the butt of the stock and the scope. The main drawback is the price: roughly $950 in Battle-Scarred up to $1,350 in Factory New.
SSG 08 Dragonfire
The most striking orange skin for the SSG 08 is, without question, the Dragonfire. This Covert skin from the Glove Case shows a fearsome fire-breathing dragon. It once cost $10 to $20, but it has climbed a lot since: prices now start at about $220 and reach $320 in Factory New.
AK-47 Safety Net
The most orange skin for the AK is arguably the AK-47 Safety Net. The black-and-white body is covered in an even orange net pattern that seems to wrap around it, leaving only the barrel and magazine exposed. Regular copies cost about $3 to $4, Factory New about $10, and Souvenir versions from the Inferno packages start at roughly $10. The same design exists for the Tec-9, which costs about $2 in most wears.
If you want a more recognizable AK, the AK-47 | Asiimov from the Danger Zone Case fits: a white body, black inserts and orange accents in a futuristic style. It starts at about $35 in Battle-Scarred, runs about $40 to $55 in the middle wears and about $290 in Factory New. We cover the whole line in our article on Asiimov series skins.
SG 553 Tiger Moth
Finally, one more skin inspired by the bright colors of nature. The SG 553 Tiger Moth reproduces the coloring of a tiger moth, echoed by the moth silhouette on the grip. Some see leopard fur or reptile scales in it instead. Either way, there is plenty of orange here, and the skin costs about $1 to $4, with StatTrak Factory New around $7.
If you are going big on an orange inventory for CS2, add a knife in the Tiger Tooth finish, which paints the blade yellow-orange with a few brown stripes. The most affordable option, such as the Navaja Knife | Tiger Tooth, costs about $60, while the same finish on a Butterfly Knife runs about $1,100. For gloves, the best color matches are the Hand Wraps | Badlands (from $85) and the Specialist Gloves | Tiger Strike (from $90).
You can carry the color further with orange stickers, and for neighboring shades see the fiery loadout for CS2, the golden inventory and our picks of skins in fall colors.
