There are quite a number of various types of pants that can be used for paintball depending on what one wishes for their purpose to be. One may want thick pants to ease the pain of the shots. One may also want white pants to pants to contrast the color of the paint to keep track of hits. One may also want pants that are easy to move around in, giving the ability to Dodge paintball shots.
paintballs should not be washed or dried.
Paintball pants allow for a few things in paintball. They prevent breaks on the legs, they can hold numerous tools, and some even allow one to hold a barrel cleaner. There are even some pants that can hold pods of paint.
Most paintball shops/dealers sell paintball gear for kids, just ask a clerk.
Yes, they are very high quality pants.
Well...Paintball can hurt at sometimes. If you are a brand-new starter and have not played yet, wear maybe a sweatshirt and sweat pants. If you are anywhere between a intermediate player and a pro you should look into getting jersey, paintball pants, your own helmet,gun,hopper,HPA, etc...
Paintball Jersey with padding. Paintball pants, or ski pants. Mask, and tennis shoes or cleats. If you don't like getting hit then get a Chest and Neck protector.
Large
No, they'd be a bit too big.
The standard paintball "armor" is a synthetic vest with sectioned parts of padding, to reduce impact. There are also padded pants available.
In my personal opinon a hard cup is MUST the pants provide some protection but not enough if you want kids later if you know what i mean.soft if anything, most people dont use them at all, i am one, before i had paintball specific pants and slider pants with a pad just for this in them i hung a hand towel out of my belt, cheap and easy way to provide protection and it does not get in the way while running
About two or three shirts, two pants, and a helmet.
the proper stiffness of a paintball should be about the same as a Tylenol Gel-cap.
