The jersey story

[Carbon]

you wear a jersey?


anyway, i bought a new blue proto jersey for half cost, from some random dude. Now im not a jersey person myself but the oppertunity was there, so i thought, what the heck".

Its weird man, i dont want people to know i know what im doing. I think its kinda cool to the "darkhorse" chumpy looking guy.

Anyway, i still wear my blue 3/4 hoodie over it, she got too much mojo to ditch and +5 bounce factor.

I own several jerseys, and several "top of the line" pants. I normally wear jeans and a t-shirt (unless else is required by the rules) along with my cleats to play... Paintball specific clothing is overrated

seriously man. A lot of that stuff is really gaudy. the only thing i would really spend money on is a good pair of pball pants.

I used to wear BDU Pants, sweatshirt, and ball cap turned backwards when playing.

Now I wear Shartley Customs PDU Pants, Shartley Customs Jersey, Shartley Customs Ban-Du and Shartley Customs Neck Guard when playing.

I where dye pants and usually a t-shirt. I have a jersey I wear occasionally...but rarely.

i like wearing other sports jerseys.....heres my list of favorite jerseys to sport ballin. Basketball: phionex suns "Marbury". football: minnesota vikings Randy Moss. Soccer: my pumas jersey bought in the border wait in mexico. Hockey: i played one time in my coveted hartford whalers jersey. I have over 25 jerseys but i only play in a few of them. some i never even wear. If you saw me at AO day norcal vs socal i was sportin my Miles LA clippers jersey. never had a paintball jersy though. too expencive and I dont really have that much brand loyalty in paintball yet.

I also agree with carbon in that paintball pants are a good value for what they provide ( its hard to find any other pants with a barrel swab paket). I have had a pair of Dye C4 pants for about 7 months now and havent gotten a rip or hole in them yet. I play on a dirt airball field and i slide alot so im pretty impressed with their robustness. I would say that pball pants are a good investmen while jersey are there just for looks and brand affilliation. ....im cool caus i wear all dye/ empire/ angel/ proto gear and i match better than a prom queen.

Now I wear Shartley Customs PDU Pants, Shartley Customs Jersey, Shartley Customs Ban-Du and Shartley Customs Neck Guard when playing.

lol was about to ask if you worked for shartley customs or something and then I saw your username :-P

I usually wear my teams jersey to the field because we're the fields team, however if its really hot I just might wear a wife beater and some paintball pants. I find the extra padding in the knees and the spots to hold the squegees a huge plus.

[guysdaman]

definately have to agree on the pants....i think that pb specific pants afford good protection plus you have the conviences of barrel swab pockets and extra padding where needed... but jerseys are more of a fashion statement....i have two jerseys but i bought them both for very cheap and i wear them more when i'm not balling than when i am.

actually ive been debating on this for a couple weeks now. i used to sport my DYE jersey every week. now im looking for an alternative. something just black or some other dark color that breathes well

i wear jt 'o4 tourney pants and jt skinz knee pads. those are the only items which i have deemed necesarry.

[bound for glory]

od rip stop bdu pants. alot cheaper than "paintball" paints. and they will outlast anything dye makes. and you can take that to the bank.

yea but i wear my Proto pants for the padding in the key areas

[WenULiVeUdiE]

I wear the whole shabang, but I didnt want it that way. My old BDUs were worn out, ripped, and too small. Then I bought barely C4 pants for $35, which was too good to pass up. I won my Proto jersey at a charity event, so I always play in it to support the charity.

I could do without the jersey. It is not needed. But the pants are very nice to wear. They offer fairly good protection over BDUs and have some nice paintball specific characteristics(obviously).
