Full-head covering on mask?

[abarnhar]

I was flipping through this month's APG and saw a JT mask with what looks like a full-head cover attached to it. It extends back from the visor and replaces a hat or beanie. It's on page 73, if anyone wants to look.

Has anyone else seen this mask? I probably just missed a model or something...

I saw something like that in wal-mart.

I had to laugh... Although when I thought about it for a while, It does suck to get beaned in the back of the head.

Still looks rediculous...

I've seen one of those at the field, they are very strange.

I saw a kid wearing a sk8bord helmate once

Alright, I took a bit more time to research.

I dunno, it could grow on me. Only if it came in olive to match my Spectra 260.

Same thought here. And they sell them at walmart, and I belive JT makes them.

As a matter of fact ym lil bro bought one of those (forgot his mask, saw that, cheap,s o he bought it)

Those are more for the little kids that can't handle a hit do a soft area like the head as well as us older people.

PS If you paint one of those green it looks like a hobgoblin mask, just missing the yellow eyes.

LOL!

Am I the only one that thinks it actually has some asthetic quality?

umm... yes.








Edit just out of curiousity, I clicked on the link... "maybe if I look at it hard enough, it will look good..."

I didnt get the chance, as I was distracted by the meaning of true aesthetic value

We've come a long way since shop goggles.

my bro picked up one of those. cut up some strips of camo cloth and sewed it in the top, painted it a bit, including the mouth piece. It now looks like he is some kinda freakish monster out on the field. it actually looks sorta good, I guess.

I don't think it looks THAT bad....

But then again, it doesn't look that good either, lol.
Well, if it'll get the proper authority figures to think of paintball as more safe than it already is, I'm all for it (not that I'll ever buy/sell/wear/or promote them ).

they have em at the local shop. they look funny and are really uncomfertable. pretty cheap and good idea for little kids though.
