Does everyone wear jerseys?

I have 4 pairs of Raven Havocs and about 10 jerseys, so that makes up most of what I wear.

Been playing for almost 4 years now. I've owned 1 jersey. I won it at a Big Game and sold it on ebay

I normally wear:
a green Nike t-shirt (summer)
a black "Freestyle" hoodie (fall/winter)
$10 Target cargo pants / $10 Target shorts
$40 steel toe work boots

I just realize that my shoes cost more than the rest of my paintball clothes combined :|

I do judge player by what they wear and shoot. New clothes = either they just got them for Christmas or are noobs. Fancy marker and new clothes = noob. Fancy marker and ratty clothes = watch out!

Yeah halliday I completely agree. Most of the better players at my field don't wear jerseys.

I don't think wearing a jersey or not wearing a jersey has any bearing on indicating if you're a good player or not. a good player, however, will forsake wearing a jersey if he's going to be playing a game where staying hidden and camoflauged (sp?) will be critical to success in the game.

A good player knows when it's ok to look good, and when it's smarter to not look "as good" as compared to being hidden from view through use of appropriate cammo and use of effective cover.

I should have said that I mostly play woods, so I try to blend in as much as possible. When I do play speedball I wear pretty much the same thing because

1) it's comfy
2) I already have it on
3) it doesn't matter b/c I won't be blending in anyway.

I do like those WGP digital cammo jeresys, except they say "WGP."

I've found that in my woods game, that I have little use for cammo. I don't think that'll be the case for scenario games, though. Still, if they'd make a cammo pattern of my JT pro-series pants, I'd buy them. I love my pro-series pants, and no bdu jacket will go with it, though, so I simply wear a black long-sleeved T-shirt with it.

though I will sacrifice the ultimate comfort of my speedballish gear for my bdus if I find that in the games I'll be playing, I'll be distinctively more effective with cammo than without (and go straight up black ).
