Getting started, what mask, and gloves do you all reccomend?

[cheese1026]

Yes I am compiling a list of things I need to get started and I am onto this phase.

I need a reltivley inexpensize mask and inexpensive gloves.

Also since were talking about safety and covering...

I live in the heat of Arizona, so what would you all recomend me wear? I have a long sleeved tee shirt, but no pants since it hasn't cooled down yet. I doubt I can wear shorts, so I guess I have to buy some pants, but what material do you all recomend, just reguler pants? jeans? sweat pants?

Thanks to anyone who help!

instead of posting all in different threads, perhaps try the NEW PAINTBALLERS FORUM, or just click on MY 1st STICKY it gives the info on mask, but if ur lazy you could try themask i like right now, the jt x-fire, it's cheap and stuff works great, durable and wont' fog i live in colorado it gets hot here too.

just wear regular pants for rec play, no need to look like a pimp when youre gonna get hella dirty anyway, but if youre gonna enter tourneys look into the dye and raven pants. for gloves just go to wal mart and buy the jt fingerless gloves, and for a mask try the v force shield and the jt spectra or flex 7. hope that helps.

I'd say regular jeans will work fine for pants. Gloves, you'll definitely want them, so I'd recommend JT gloves. The type is up to you. As for the mask, NEVER skimp when it comes to the mask. What you want to do is buy the best one you can. I again will recommend a JT mask. Either a flex or proteus are your best bets. Try 'em both out, see which is more comfortable for you.

Moving to New Paintballers.
