Durable, colorful packing cubes?

I have a set of Eagle Creek “packing cubes” that I got from REI decades ago. They’re reasonably sturdy, ~300 denier nylon, and I’ve used them for years to fit random stuff in odd spaces around my truck and camper. They’re finally wearing thru, but I’m having a hard time finding similar replacements. Any search on “packing cubes” is swamped by thin, inexpensive generic versions in ~100 denier that work fine for clothing in a suitcase, but won’t last long rattling around in an off-road build. But neither do I need purpose-built heavy-duty overlanding zip cases for $100 each. (Eagle Creek FWIW now makes hundreds of different types and it’s a pain to sort them by fabric thickness.)

Anyone have leads for “medium duty” packing cubes? $25 for a three pack of mixed sizes would be the right neighborhood. Bright colors a plus - I’ve nearly lost my black zip pouch of tire inflation gear on a couple nights

IDK if it's what you're looking for but I use Magpull Takeout bags for various odds and ends in my truck, camping tote, luggage and range bags. They dont have bright colors but they're good bags IMO.

When search them on amazon they have a few alternatives as well.

Purchased these from Amazon last week to replace old Eagle Creek cubes. The quality is better with less mesh to tear.

I've used the Eagle Creek for years. Lately I've been buying the Red Oxx packing cubes

Thanks for the links folks! OTTE look nice, and the variety of camo patterns will suit a lot of people here. Me, I’m increasingly worried about setting something down outside or at night, and leaving it behind. So I’m trying to convert over to all orange and blue and dayglo colors

Mystery Ranch looks pretty good; the price is reasonable for a 210D set with YKK zips
