| Review: |
Good goggles for a great price, have anti-fog protected lenses. The head strap fits nice and snug on your head, are mirrored and have a longer mask to help protect most of your neck. Have enough holes so that you can breath well, I am a heavy breather and haven't had them fog the slightest bit yet. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good goggles at a great price, look cool, fit well on small heads like mine:) |

|
| Review: |
This is the first, and only mask I have bought and used for myself or many times. It works like any ordinary mask, but I think its shape and face looks pretty tight. The only problem that was a real pain in the neck (or head, I should say) was that it felt like it was cutting into my head, right around the ears, and I'm ok with the anti-fog technology. It barley fogs anyway. If you get it with the whole Spyder TL pack, I presume it costs around 20 bucks, and thats ok with me because it works like a charm. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is an excellent mask to start out with. If your gunna play for a longer time, get a more comforatble and a Thermal mask. |

| Review: |
This mask is very protective. I have taken numerous hits and the mask and it has not shown one sign of breakage. THe mask looks awsome but for some reason the foam always peels off wich is sort of uncomfartable. This is a very protective mask nut never use it in woods ball. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This is a good mask for people who play sppedball but not for woods ball the lens stands out way to much..BrassEagleSux!!! |

| Review: |
The Java is a really good mask, it does the job and looks good doing it.
I've been using this along time and works out great! The one thing you must
expect with this mask is the foaming around the inside of the lens comes off.
This can easily be fixed with a little 5min epoxy. I love that it comes tinted.
Works great for summer play and because it's tinted it's also a really good intimidation tool.. I know sounds awful but works good. Also really nice visibility in it.
I admit not the best for comfort but I don't play PaintBall for comfort. I play aggressive.
These have all the qualities I ( I ) Was looking for.
|
|
| Conclusion: |
These are great. If you started out with some $20 X-Ray mask or something
these are a very very nice move up and are much better and more comfortable. |

| Review: |
Its a really great mask and is very great for a begginer player. i got it for $30. It doesnt fog for me and i am a very heavy breather. like i said its a great gun if your just starting out but i have had this for 2 years and its still pretty good for me. The only problem is the inside foam will peel off, but i just used superglue to stick it back on. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I highly recomend this to anyone who is new to the game of paintball just be sure you have something to fix the foam. I would give it a ten but because of the foam im going to give it a 9. |

| Review: |
Best Goggle I've ever used! I love the tint! It really helps your vision during a game. It protects your entire face and the front of your neck. Of course, the sides of your neck aren't covered, but no mask covers that.
I have been shot in the mask quite a few times and it shows no signs of cracks or weakness. Very durable. It is also quite comfy until you try to take it off. The foam on the strap sticks to you. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Very nice mask. I got mine on E-bay for $30, so it's fairly cheap (especially when compared to other masks of the same quality). It's an easy 10 |

| Review: |
I recieved this mask from a friend and from the first time i played it was great. The only downside was that occasionaly, it would fog up. To fix this problem i bought a jt elite thermal lense and it fit purfectly. As far as the mask goes, it is big enough to cover the face and recieves lots of bounces. I would recomend it 2 any1 |
|
| Conclusion: |
I rate this 10 because it is great and durable, will last your years of paintball |

| Review: |
First off, I got this mask when I got my first paintball gun three years ago. It's ok as far as beginner masks go but it does feel a little cheap (but that doesn't matter then you're a beginner paintballer). The tinted lens is both cool and uncool, but mostly uncool. It's nice because the sun doesn't really get in your eyes but it's also pretty dark in there. Also, it's not that hard to spot (if you're a rec baller). Another con is that there isn't any anti-fog on the lens. To me this is the worst of all because it just doesn't work on the field. |
|
| Conclusion: |
All together it's an "ok" mask. Probably good for a beginner baller but I would recommend something with out the tinted lens. |

|
| Review: |
I bought this mask when I first got into paintball, thinking it would be a decent mask...I was wrong, Dead Wrong! The first game I played with it the thermal lense fogged up on me. Also this thing is made of hard plastic, so expect no bounces on this one. After about three weekends of play, all the foam in the mask fell apart, then fell out...
This is the worst thermal mask I ever bought. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Dont Buy it, Save up a bit more money and buy a V-Force |

| Review: |
I bought this mask when i bought my first gun and was not really impressed with it, If I knew what I know now I whould have spent a little extra on a Proto or a Jt mask. For starters it fogs really easily and often, and the rainbow colored lens makes it really easy for people to see you, not a good thing in woodsball, but it is a very comfortable mask, you dont have to worry about discomfortness
Fogs really easy
Rainbow colored lens makes it easy to be spotted |
|
| Conclusion: |
This mask belongs in one of those gun packages at Wal Mart
Put in the extra money to get a better mask, it will make your playing experience a whole lot better |
