Prioritize Paintball Pants – Features To Find The Best
When purchasing a pair of paintball pants, pay attention to certain features to ensure you get the best pair possible. The best paintball pants are lightweight, durable, and have plenty of padding over the shins, knees, hips, crotch and rear. They should have the right balance between loose fitting for movement, however not so much as to get in the way.
While there are many color and design styles of paintball pants to choose from, you should always pick the pair with the best combination of functional traits and aesthetics. Ideally, a pair will match a wide variety of paintball jerseys, however most are made to fit a specific set.
Choose paintball pants that offer ample range of motion, however not too baggy that the extra material will get in the way. Also, remember that it’s your pants that will come into first contact with the ground when sliding onto your hips, sides or knees. Considering this, choose a pair of pants made of thick material that won’t rip or tear easily.
Pay close attention to the seams and stitching on the pants; the most durable styles are double or even triple stitched. These will last the longest and be able to withstand the hardest beatings. More important than all of these features, however, are paintball pants’ protective function; the type of padding used in paintball clothing should be a key factor in deciding on your purchase.
Paintball pants padding is often made of hard foam, but some brands of pants use lightweight plastic moldings sandwiched inside the material. While this type of padding offers great protection, some brands with this feature tend to break down in a wet playing environment, causing the plastic molding to come loose, twist and may not fit the same when dried.
Perhaps the most protective styles of pants have areas with thick rubber coating sewn onto the outside of the pant. This type offers complete protection from sliding abrasions and will most likely last the longest, however they are not soft padding and will generally not reduce the impact of a direct blow from a fall. Try to balance out the protection padding offers with the weight it adds.
Perhaps the most comfortable padding used in paintball pants is foam sandwiched in between layers of material; this system offers the most comfort for your knees, hips and rear when coming in direct contact with the ground. The downfall of this type of protection is wear and tear; foam padding tends to break down faster with hard use.
Other features to look for when buying paintball pants are pockets, adjustable pull tabs around the waist and bungie cord draw strings around the ankles. Pockets are great for carrying paintball gun cleaning supplies, tools and extra parts. Some pants feature extras like lumbar support, built in loops to carry extra paintball pods and/or rubber coating or extra straps to help secure your pod harness.
Another important feature in paintball pants is a ventilation system; without one, you will become too hot, sweaty and overall uncomfortable. Often, the material chosen for most pants is thick and extremely durable (most of which is not breathable fabric), so ventilation systems should be built in to the design of the pant. Most paintball pants have mesh fabric linings and/or panels sewn in different locations to offer better air flow in the crotch area or throughout the garment.
Take your time shopping and studying all the features of different brand paintball pants before buying. Look for paintball pants that are lightweight, comfortable, easy to move, extremely durable and most importantly, protective. A pair of sharp looking paintball pants will also improve your confidence to play harder because they give you the look of a professional paintball athlete. Intimidate your opponents when you walk onto the field with a complete paintball uniform and play like there’s no tomorrow!
