Flex Fletch cos they're tough and I can get them in a nice shade of blue. I might give Spin Wings or similar another try this year though.

Spin Wings, never had a problem with them, tough as old boots if put on correctly. Even better if you fold 'em back.

For outdoor I use X-Vanes 1.5" These are the best vanes I have ever used period. They don't tear and they still hit the 10 at 70m even with the vane half lifted off. Unfreakingbelievable.
Attached is them on my X10's.

For indoor I use 2.25" Quickspins. No reason, they just look good and are low profile.

Spinnies outdoors. They look cool and are much easier to maintain than flexfletch, and can be repaired in the field.

Indoors I have 3" feathers. They do the trick.

Plastifletch, but since it's nearly outdoors I guess it's time for the annual spinwing testing...

Spinwings on the ACEs. Fluo orange Kurlys for field because I need to be able to see the arrow in the target without binos. Wouldn't use them if there were bright coloured spinwings.

Super flonite solid vanes, very stiff and seem durable so far, best aspect is that they focus light around the edges like the fibre optic pins for scopes, so they show up well in the target
