Who makes the highest quality Tourny pants

[Frizzle Fry]

Why not Valken...I have played 2 seasons of xball and also 7 man l in my valkens and they have lasted quite well.....they are light, comfortable and look pretty good

No stitching problems? I've seen entire sections go missing without damage to the material.

Nope none...and if you know my teams since you are from mass also..we practice pretty hard...woburn monsters/section 8...lots of sliding, diving, running every week...they have held up pretty great!!

I've got empire 08 contact pants in desert camo, simply because they had a sale on that one color cause no one else wanted it.
Really great pants. A bit heavy, but fantastic padding and so far they seem 100% bomb proof. I've gone through 3 sets of empire knee pads. I love the feel of the ground pounder pads (can hardly tell you have them on) but they don't last.

I picked up a pair of dead stock dye C6's on ebay for half price and they've lasted several seasons now and still work great. I like their looks and I'm a hard sliding tournament front man. I recommend going my route and looking for a pair of c8's on ebay brand new (just 2 years old) for a good price.

check out Mar's pant line on MCB. He works with APX, all I've heard is good stuff so far. If and when my Empire 06 pants wear out I'll be looking to get some from him. But sadly I think those Empire pants will last forever. They seem to be a pretty similar cut and style to the APX pants.

Mind you Mar's stuff is more woodsball specific I guess, but camo is still cool :P

Deadbox Before Dishonor (Mar's company) does offer an all black pant (what I use) that's pretty fantastic. You can either pm Mar on mcb (http://www.mcarterbrown.com/forums/index.php) or email him through his website http://www.deadboxbeforedishonor.com....php?page=home.

I can get black pants done too through APX.

I am wearing a pair of Dye '04 hybrid pants right now.

They are awesome. The nylon on the knees are a little fuzzy, but other than that... they look pretty much brand new.

Loving my Planet Eclipse '10 Distortion gear. The only thing I dislike about the pants is that the 2 front "slit" pockets don't zip closed.

Material is awesome, venting is awesome, padding is awesome, fit is awesome, squeegee pockets are pretty good, and the pod elastic works well.

I had a review posted of it on another forum, but it is temporarily suspended right now for some reason.
It would appear that the forum owner didn't pay the bill on time...

I don't wear paintball pants (I wear old rave pants) but my friend does. His dyes have lasted for years and years. I mean years. I couldn't imagine buying a different brand. And he wears them all the time for work.

I currently have a pair of WDP pants that I'm not extremely fond of. I bought these in 05 I think, and they have seen about 2 years of frequent play. The kneepads aren't very well designed (they have 4 seams which intersect in the middle of the knee, the largest wear point). They are also rather heavy and hot.

When I got the WDP pants I sold my Dye Core Division pants (2003?) to a friend. As far as I know he's still got them, but I expect a more serious player would have worn them out by now.

I'll be looking for a much lighter, more well-vented pair of pants when my WDP ones wear out.

The "kneepads" on the 05 AirTime line were more like shin pads. The new A-Cams are like that still, but the Pro series is a little more knee friendly.
