| Strengths: |
Colors and selection |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Everything else. It is a nylon cover for your head. It is made like crap. Very thin offers no warmth and little protection. |
|
| Conclusion: |
All this happens to be is a "Head-Ad" for PJ. Their jerseys are great, and they should dtay in that field. I recommend getting a JT Sock Hat over this junk any day! |

| Review: |
This is a piece of crap. it was probably made in a Chinese sweat shop. It is about 2 microns thick, offers no protection, and no warmth. I would really suggest wearing a panty hose over this thing. I wear my baseball hat now. I hate this thing. waste of money.
After about a day of use, it starts fraying, and the threading comes un-done. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Don't buy this. Offers nothing other than a headache |

| Review: |
Well, i think that it's a good sock hat for the priced i payed for it, i got it for free from Ronn Stern's Paintball Camps (comment if you've been there!) It doesn't offer too much protection, but who needs that much, you got a skull for a reason, but it is kinda cool, doesn't frey easily, but nothing much else to say. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Overall, decent, but not as good as my friend's Ronnin Gear, i think that it's better (it actualy keeps your head warm) |

| Review: |
Well, overall, I'm happy I bought this hat. It looks goofy and keeps my head warm at the same time. The color selection is really nice. It also fits perfectly on my noggin.
- The problem with it is that it won't offer you much protection. A couple days ago I was paintballing and I can still feel the welts on my head. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If I were to do it again and pay full price, I'd take a hundredth monkey bouncer cap over this. It may cost more, but I want my head protected. I suppose I bought this for show so having some welts doesn't bother me. However, if protection is your primary concern, look into something that is a bit thicker. |

| Review: |
Well I got mine for like $11 shipped on eBay (eBay = my best friend) and I have the yellow skull version, so it matches my jersey, and the yellow matches my gun and othrt equipment. It's a nice sock hat except that it slides off sometimes, and makes you mask sort of slip as well. I prefer to wear it without the little stringy part and under a backwards hat, basically just for looks. It's a decent sock hat, but now that I look back, i'd probably just use a hat instead of buying a sock hat. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Decent sock hat, get it if you wish, doesn't cost much anyways. |

| Review: |
Okay, I don't know about the little retard that gave this a one out of ten, was he high or something? Well, I'm not high. I really enjoy this little sockhat of mine... it's really nifty. It's a good fit around my head, and it protects the back of my neck, to a certain extent. And if it hits the top of my head, so what? I can take a hit, and at least I won't have colored hair afterwards. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This thing is pretty neat, durable, and I like it. But what else is there to say?It's a hat for crying out loud. Well, there is one more thing, I guess. I got a yellow one! =P |

| Marker Setup: |
98 custom, LapCo bigshot barrel,12v revolution hopper, pyschoballistics dropforward, tippmann double trigger. |
|
|
|
|
| Strengths: |
its color selection, the comfort, i have a small head so it fits me like a glove, it bounces pretty well for me better than my baseball hat at least. the JT sockhat is itchy because of the material, but only when i have gel in my hair. |
|
| Weaknesses: |
the string, they could have found a way to keep it on, cuz i almost lost it 4 times. thin material, my friends got headaches that lasted all day from getting hit in the head with it on, i never got hit in the head, i'm just pretty fast. |
|
| Conclusion: |
this thing is awesome, the colors, the protection, (for me at least), and the comfort, its not as itchy as the JT sockhat when you have gel in your hair. |

Looks great, and dosn't get my head feeling like a heater! |
|
| Weaknesses: |
Nothing really, but if I may, sock hats arn't really for protection, and in a way, they are just big billboards, but I think they look cool and I like paintballjunkies, so go and buy a pj sock hat and sport the JUNKIE!!!! |
|
| Conclusion: |
if you like buy, I don't really know what the sock hat market is like or how other ones are diffrent but whatever floats your boat i guess! |
