Anybody out there wear shorts, or short sleeve shirts?

I wear long sleeve shirts and camo pants, but I han't played with shorts or short sleeve shirts yet.

I think I proboly could with out minding, cuz, I usually get shot in the thighs or mid-section.

But what do you then wear on you'r knee's (I don't like knee pads) . cuz your knees will get all messed up ( i play on gravel some), and if you crawl or lay down, your elbows too ( i hate elbow pads too) Mabye I will just wrap them in cloth.

Just want to know who wears shorts and short sleevs?

Never shorts, but t-shirts sure. Especially if it's just far too hot. Besides, it doesn't hurt that much anyway.

unless I play on the beach. there are too many nedles where I play.

I also live in WA. so it dosn't get to hot.

I want to wear shorts though, you can run easier in them. But I'd tear up my knees and get nedles.

Just wear pants and a long sleeve tshirt and roll them up to a 3/4 kinda style.

I cant imagine playing in shorts.. my knees already get enough abuse from soccer.

I wear either my yellow diablo jersey or a bright t-shirt and camo pants or yellow shorts. I like bright colors so its obvious where I am, that way its harder for me and its fun hitting people when you can barely see them and they can see you perfactly. I also kind of like ot get hit...except in the head.

I only wear shorts:
1) in the summer when it's hot :pissed:
2) for speedball w/ knee pads

The brush it too thick at the field for Rec Ball in the woods w/o pants.

I do wear t-shirts all the time!

Too hot here in the summer to play in long pants and long sleeves, since June I've been wearing Cargo shorts with knee/shin pads and short sleeve shirts ... believe me, the arm shots feel the same whether then hit your sleeve or your skin.

Doesn't JT make pants that have zippers around the knee area so they can be shorts and pants? How are those? Are they good?

Does JT or any other company make shorts for paintball (w/ the good material that is used on JT pants?)

JT makes cargo shorts, but they're expensive. The best shorts and pants I've found are at Military Surplus stores. Get a pair of black Proppers cargo paints or shorts. They're the same thing the military uses. Very light and Very Sturdy. The shorts have two large billowed cargo pockets that button closed, in addition to the front and back pockets. Plus, they make them in all the woodland and tiger stripe patterns. Very cool and comfortable. And, Much Cheaper than JT shorts. I paid $25 for the cargo shots and $30 for cargo pants.

they call it jt pro-series pants, and yes they are expensive... I usually wear my destroyer pants more because the pro-series look so nice, that I really do not want them to get dirty. The amount of features on the pro-series is the real cool part.
