| Review: |
When my son decided he wanted to start paintballing, I took him to the store. He bought himself these gloves, so I thought "what the hell, They're only like $10. I'll try them out." So I bought myself a pair too. Here's how they were:
Padding- They have some nice padding for such cheap gloves. I got shot in back of the hand once, and I barely felt it. The padding keeps your hands quite warm as well.
Feel- These gloves are actually quite comfortable. They aren't too tight, so you don't feel like they're on.
Price- You can get these at a proshop for around $10. That's not bad.
Fingers- The little half fingers are quite stiff. This makes it a little bit harder to walk your trigger in these gloves.
Quality- They are quite poorly made, but that is to keep them at $10. They fray very easily, but they won't fall apart or anything. Here are the materials: and what they are for:
50% Synthetic leather- That's for the padding.
25% P.V.C.- Again, for the padding.
5% Air mesh- There's a little bit around the pads, but they need more.
5% Terry- Normally used in towels, terry is what the thumb is made of.
5% Lycra- AKA spandex. Used in the wristband probably.
5% Foam- Under the pads.
5% Elastic- Also in the wrist.
5% Others- Everything else.
Bleeding- These gloves can bleed sometimes, which means the color comes out and onto your hand. The reason this happens is because the gloves do not breath well. This can cause your hands to sweat which makes the dye come out. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good begginer or budget baller gloves. |

| Review: |
I'm a big fan of extreme rage so I was excited about getting these gloves. When they came they were not exactly what I had in my head but they were pretty cool. So after a few weeks they thumbs on the glove started to frey and that was sort of a bummer but the gloves are still awsome |
|
| Conclusion: |
I recommend these gloves to people who are new to the sport or don't't want to spend a lot of money gloves. |

| Review: |
Well, I thought hand protection was a good idea so I bought these at a local paintball store. They were fairly cheap and good looking. They fit great for any hand size. They are comfortable and flexible. I got hit in the hand about a month ago and I am glad I had these. They absorbed the impact well. I could definetely tell I was hit but no where near the pain of getting hit without gloves. Great product.
|
|
| Conclusion: |
Get them. They will serve you well. |

| Review: |
i got these from my local pro-shop for like eight dollars so their cheap. I was playing in the woods, so i enjoyed the fact my hand didnt get all scratched up by brush. also, one time i got shot in the hand, and enjoyed that it just bounced off. after a few months, i noticed how the stitching was coming loose, but it didnt fall apart. one day i just lost them, and i now use baseball gloves.
EDIT: i just found them while cleaning out the garage, and while looking over them, they didnt have as much loose stitching as i originally thought. While pretending to walk my fingers, i found these limit finger movement/walking, but i could care less since i have a mechanical autococker. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Buy it if you are are a casual player. Not good for tournys because can limit finger movement. |

| Review: |
I got these gloves when I first started playing paintball and used them until they vanished on me after a party in the dorms. They were on sale, and felt comfy in the store, so I bought them.
You get what you pay for. These gloves are cheap, and will not protect your hand from a straight shot at close range, but will deflect glancing hits, and keep your knuckles safe.
Mine started fraying after a couple months, but they were perfectly functional right up until they disappeared on me. I'd but another pair, but the shop near my house doesn't carry them anymore. |
|
| Conclusion: |
Good gloves for the price; if you need something comfortable that will keep your hands warm and your fingers safe, this is a good value. |

| Review: |
Ok, i'll start this out pretty bluntly, these gloves are O.K. I used them for quiet some time, and they gave me decent protection.
Pros:
They are cheap and durable. They do give a good amount of protection for half-finger gloves.
Cons:
I found that they made my hand bulge out a little farther then normal. I know that that doesn't sound important, but i focus on having the smallest profile possible. Another small problem was that they turned my hand black. I put them on and after ten minutes of wearing them, my hand was turning a bluish-black. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I think that these are good gloves. If you are just starting out, or you just want a pair of gloves but don't have alot of cash, i would get these. I give an 6.5 (remember that 5 is average) |

|
| Review: |
Let me start out by saying that these gloves are good for anybody, new or expirenced.I got shot in the hand a couple times with these on, and i barely felt anything. When you first get these gloves it is kind of hard to shoot fast but once you break them in it's alot easier. The price for these things are great, 10 dollars is what i paid for these gloves at a local shop. |
|
| Conclusion: |
I would reccomend these gloves to anybody who just wants to try paintball, or is somebody who has been playing for a long time. These gloves have a great price, great padding, and look cool. |

| Review: |
Well i was just needing some gloves and these were the cheapest i could find. I think they are really comfy, and the padding is decent. Of course they are just gloves, and there are better ones but i like these.How am i supose to right 50 words about gloves. Ok well i like the design on them. Once again they're pretty comfy but ya might get cold in winter, only have fingure but probably the best half fingures iv seen. |
|
| Conclusion: |
If you just need some gloves get these. |

| Review: |
I think that these are great gloves and i would reccomend them to people that don't need to walk their trigger very fast. The foam padding on the top makes it difficult to walk but they offer lots of protection and you dont feel it when you get shot in the hand! |
|
| Conclusion: |
Great gloves i really like them and if you dont need to walk very fast you will too! :) |

| Review: |
This is my first gloves, and i'd like to say that for the price i got this for
it has never failed me. Although i have been hit on my trigger fingers, it
really didn't hurt much, but i'd rather sacrifice hit than ability of moving my
trigger fingers to my liking. And this gloves allows you to move them well.
Some might prefer the full glove coverage, some don't. but for me i'd say
this is a good set of gloves to start with. |
|
| Conclusion: |
This goes for 20 bucks canadian in my local shop, but when I bought the item
it was during the boxing sale! so i got this for 5 bucks! so i'd say i had a great
purchase! And in terms of satisfaction. The gloves does what it is suppose to
do. For 5 bucks what could go wrong! =) |
