| Want tournament pants for your team? Or even for yourself independent? These are some awesome new pants decked out in style and availability. The canvas style "Rave" Pants by Draxxus provide support a paintball player would respect, along with providing pockets for everything you need. The color and styles given out by the rave pants are something to respect.

| Review: |
I bought these on the strength of the diablo name. Also they looked rather cool.
After one days paintballing the seams had gone in the crotch and on both thigh pockets. The material had begun to unweave on the left leg as well.
I live in the UK and these pants cost me $80 which was a complete waste of money. After emailling Diablo with my concerns I have heard nothing. So not only are their products of a poor nature, their customer service stinks.
Follow Up
I have been informed that there was a batch of pants that were faulty and were accidently shipped out. I have been offered a replacement pair and was sent a very apologetic email. Hopefully my pair was just an exeption. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Read the above ammendment. I will add to this when I test out my new pair. |

| Review: |
I got these pants as they were included in a 100$ DraXxuS package deal which included the Rave Pants and DraXxuS Jersey. My favorite part about these pants is the ability to pull off some easy/far sliding. As the other reviews state, I live in Canada so heat doesn't really affect me. It is winter so I have yet to see what it is like but I play mainly all indoor anyway. Pockets aren't that bad sit the pants are a nice fit, you could wear them leisurely when you go somewhere, etc, so you have extra pockets. But when you're playing and you have stuff in them, think about it. I was playing not too long ago and I flew over the snake and landed on plastic piece that is attached to the zipper. Doesn't help that their are 6 pockets. Tends to hurt more than paintballs if you're playing hardcore, lol. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I have probably over exagurated a bit on the pain the pants give you :P
overall these pants are very comfortable & easy to move in. All I could ask for in pb pants. |

| Review: |
These are really nice. The nylon exterior reminds me of reptilian skin. It's like chain mail armor, great. There's PLENTY of cargo type pocket space, three biggies on each leg. The zipper with twin buttons doesn't leave alot of room for wrong sizes. There is velcro tighteners on the side if they're a little loose on you, but beware of undersizing. I have a 30 waist, and I got the smalls, and they're perfect. But if I were a 31, I wouldn't be able to tuck my shirt it. Bottom line, try them on if you can even find these baby's in a store. They have no mesh, which means you don't get alot of air circulating in them, but when you're ready to wash them, you just unleash your garden hose and they're clean, nothing to dry. If you're worried about heat, I live in Florida and you don't hear me whining. But if you are worried about sweating and heat, think twice about these, you will be hot in the summer time. These are serious pants, very low key, very cool, very evil looking. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Respect the pants.... |

| Review: |
I haven't played with these pants yet but I have messed around with them.The material that they are made of seems durable.It is very slick also so it is good for sliding('cus it wont rip).The inside of the pants is lined with the same netting as swim suits,it makes it very comfortable and it keeps the main body of the pants off of you skin so it is cooler and promotes bounces.The padding in the knees leaves a little to be desired.The fly has a triple close thing going on with zipper,Velcro and buttons so they have no chance of coming undone during a game.
The only problems I have seen with them is that on the inside there is a rubber type of coating that kinda wears off,but it is not really a big deal.Also if you don't pay attention and get some Velcro on the pants it really starts snagging and scuffing them. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I am sure there are better pants out there but I ahvent seen them yet.Compared to Dye these pants are ten times better, and ten times cheaper.
Shop around.If you dont ahve a whole lot of money like me these pants are awsome. |

| Review: |
so i got these pants from my local shop (cousins Mt. Kisco), they were my first pair of paintball specific pants, and i take good care of all my stuff... for the first 2-3 games, they were perfect... after that, they literally started falling apart at the seams.
3 different areas, all coming apart.
I emailed Draxxus, to no avail... i called 6 times, and get transferred and kept on hold for 2 hours while no one answers...
these get an absolute 0 out of 10... |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy these if you want throw away pants... |

| Review: |
I got these pants for Christmas and i was so excited. I have read all the reviews on here and most of them were good. My first day i played with them was amazing. I could slide into bunkers very fast and quietly. Also when i did end up getting hit, after the game it only took a wipe and they were clean again. These are very nice pants, i love them. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I love them, You will too. |
