Paintballing question.

Post by Kurt_ »

I'm sure a few of you paintball. What kind of clothes do you wear to do such an activity? Are any clothes fine? Does the paint wash out?

Fill me in.

For most paintballs, they wash out fine, but I always wear bad clothes anyways.

Water based, you can easily wipe it off, so washing is easier still. Wear whatever is comfiest to run in.

yeah, paint washes out really easily ( i just played for 4 1/2 hours today) I just wear some Camo BDU's until i have money for new paintball pants, and underarmour, t shirt, and jersey (optional) and a pair of padded gloves with the index and middle finger cut out. And wear cleats or at least shoes with some grip, or else you'll slide a lot.

Good to hear, I read an article online about oil-based ones.

And the place I'm going to is out in literally farmland. So it's a nice big outdoors place, (12 arenas to be exact) and not a confined indoors arena with slippery floors.

its not really necessary, if you play at a field or with people you know they'll be nice enough to not shoot below the waist unless absolutely necessary. I've been playing for 4 years and one paintball got close only once.

Actually, the thing I would recommend the most would be (next to a mask) the armored gloves. I've been shot so many F---ing times in the finger and each one hurts more then the last....

Oil based paintballs...maybe back in the early days...everything is water soluable.
