I'm looking to buy some goggles for my two sons. One is going to be 8 in December, the other will be 6 in April. Neither of them play, but my family operates a field ( www.megiddo.ca ), and they like to come down and watch. And they'll be playing soon enough anyway.

What goggles would be suitable for a small head? I wear a VForce Morph, and that would be huge on them. My wife has a JT Proteus, which is significantly smaller, but still big. I don't want to spend a pile of money either...maybe 60 or 80 CAD at most. We have JT Radar for rentals at the field, and they're just nasty, and still are meant for a bigger head. Been thinking about maybe some Vents Helix, if I can get my hands on any.

Any comments/suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Skulls were the smallest mask I have seen, but I dont think they are made anymore

maybe the Raven Nuvis goggles, they are slender and tight fitting, and can probably be found cheap becasue I dont knwo anyone that uses them anymore.

These (http://www.800paintball.com/Shop/Control/Product/fp/SFV/30363/vpid/2351342/vpcsid/0/rid/118588) may be an option. They are supposed to be youth sized and come with this set. (http://www.fogdog.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2158999). You might want to try out the Dye Invisions as well. They were too small for me. I wear a profiler because it fits my face perfectly.

I'm not trying to be an a** about it, but I'm a little unclear about how this quesstion of our field's price of paint relates to finding goggles to fit my kids...
:headbang:
Thanks though.

I think wanna b ballin checked out the website you refrenced and saw the price for 500 balls at $35 and wondered if that was CDN or US.

More to the point, I don't know where you could find a mask that would fit your porch monkeys. Too many times I have seen kids the size of a ION wearing a mask that doesn't really offer any protection because it's too large to fit their head snuggly. Given how many small heads there are in paintball, you'd think someone would have come up with a solution.

Thats all eh?

ummm those words don't mean what you used them to represent....


All goggles are adjustable, if you get the ones with flexible ( rubberish not that foam crap )
they should conform to the size of your children's heads.

I still suggest the Skull masks, they are cheap, flexible, and small
