    Dye should go scenario...

    With their current success of of tourney style clothes and gear why hasnt Dye gone and expanded their market to scenario gear. They could come up with highly functioal and "stylish" gear in O.D. or in cammo patterns. Further more the hook would be Scenario specific. That means jersey/tac vests that have radio pouches, tactical this and that. What do you all think.

    ...ever in the continual search of time dilation.

    I dunno, I think that they are well established as a tourny company, and an entry into the scenario market may change their focus. However, maybe another Dye spinoff (such as Proto) should be developed just for scenario stuffs.

            Speaking of dye and proto, how come dye doesn't have the proto gear on their site? Does proto have its own site. Does anybody know it.

              I doubt you'll ever see a camo print from Dye, just look at where it all starts (e.g. DYE = Dave Youngblood Enterprises). Have you ever seen Youngblood wear camo? Maybe they'll offer tailored suits or something someday, but not camo.

              Besides, Dye gear is the antithesis of what a scenario baller wants ... authentic military issue BDUs.

                Well the dude that started Dye did play woodsball. Further more, Dye could hash up some other name on their tac wear, they dont have to put the Dye name on it. It seem the next logical step in sweeping the soft goods market. Youve the Dye line, excell line and the proto stuff.

                if dye does go into the scenario market, whatch the other commpanies follow in their path. Because to be the potential revenue is to great to be ignored.

                  Eh, I'm certainly not a 'scenario baller,' but authentic military issue BDUs weren't all that great for me. I musta ripped three pairs of pants down the crotch. Granted, these BDUs had been with me through basic, but I prefer my paintball gear to be sturdier.

                  A nice line of jersies and pants in subdued colors would be good. I'm not a 'tourney baller' either but really don't like all the loud colors.

                      Because it wouldnt be authentic. Scenario ballers tend to be more like airsoft fanatics, they strive for militia trainn.....i mean authenticity. In airsoft if you can get a set of BDU's with a real delta force commandos nut sweat then you must be a real commando.

                      If dye made scenario gear its not real, no military force has worn it so it probably wouldnt fare well.

                        Note though, Dave Dehaan(aka Dave Youngblood) was known far and wide for the fact he never wore camo. He was well known for wearing a black turtleneck and slacks. The man was even stylish in the woods days...come one.

                        The day camo is printed on a DYE product is the same day Smart Parts converts to charity and AGD stops caring.

                          C'mon man, just because not everybody wants to dress up in bright jerseys, pay an extrodinary amount for feild fee and feild paint, then play games that last 3 minutes, that means that they are Redneck hicks who want to be in the military?

                          You should try playing a Scenario instead of just ragging on them... I was at a blackcat 24 hour game this weekend and saw damn near as many cockers/mags/timmies/matrices or other high end guns then tippies and spyders.

                          Just because we play in the woods don't mean we can't keep up with technology.

                            Bad Karma are as hard core scenario as you can get and they dont wear camo.


                            It would be nice if dye came to where the real money is in the sport.

                              I must sai I wouln't be to impressed if Dye went scenario. I mean like posted above noone would like c4 or such. It would be "nerdy" and etc.

                              Manike-It's still early days. One thing for sure is that the future is going to be interesting, and we intend to be a BIG part of it.
