SG 553 | Tiger Moth (Factory New)

The SG 553 | Tiger Moth (Factory New) is a Restricted rifle skin with an orange moth-wing pattern custom-painted across the body. Factory New is the top grade, showing that artwork at its most vivid.

Design

Tiger Moth applies a vivid orange, wing-inspired paint job to the SG 553, giving it a striking, almost insect-like visual instead of a typical military scheme. It's a community design by The Honey Badger, and it carries the in-game line: "Valeria is getting bolder... the time has come to take the fight to her."

SG 553 | Tiger Moth (Factory New) Float and Wear

Tiger Moth spans the full 0 to 1.00 float range, so Factory New sits right at the cleanest end of that scale. At this grade the orange wing pattern shows at full saturation with no scuffing to interrupt it, making it the sharpest-looking copy of the finish.

SG 553 | Tiger Moth Rarity

Rarity: Restricted, the purple tier — one step below Classified and above Mil-Spec Grade among the standard weapon rarities. It's a genuinely uncommon pull from a case.

A StatTrak™ SG 553 | Tiger Moth exists, tracking confirmed kills on a permanent counter that carries over through trades and sales. There's no Souvenir version — Souvenir weapons only come from Major-tournament packages, and this finish has never been part of one.

FAQ

Is Factory New Tiger Moth worth the premium?

If you want the orange wing pattern at its most vivid with zero scuffing, yes. Since the finish sits at an affordable mid-tier price overall, the step up from Minimal Wear is a modest one for a genuinely sharper look, making it reasonable for buyers who care about top condition.

How rare is a Restricted drop like Tiger Moth?

Restricted sits in the middle of the case-drop hierarchy — rarer than Mil-Spec but more common than Classified or Covert. From the Revolver Case, the whole Restricted tier lands around 15.98% of opens, split across its skins.

Does the StatTrak Tiger Moth cost much more?

Yes, StatTrak versions of any finish are rarer drops and carry a real premium over the standard copy. The kill counter is permanent and stays with the item through trades, which is part of why collectors pay more for it.

What are the best gloves for the SG 553 | Tiger Moth?

Its warm orange palette pairs well with orange or tan-toned gloves for a matching set, while dark leather-look gloves work if you'd rather contrast against the bright pattern. Either way, a warm-toned pair makes for the best SG 553 Tiger Moth glove combo.
