Hiya looking to buy a jersey (probably off here) was wondering if i should buy the size above. Is this done? Theres a lot of people with very large jerseys out there which either means theres a lot of big paintballers or there doing this! help!

Baggy is always the way - less restrictive, and the added bonues of some extra chance of balls bouncing....

Echoing what Pigeon said really, I'm Large to XL in "real world" clothing, but in the strange world of Paintball jerseys, I'm XXL (Eclipse, Smart Parts, Empire, pretty much anyone) or if dye made a top that fit my comfortably, it'd be called XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL I'd imagine :D

Ok, while we're on the subject of jerseys its stupid noob question time...

When you have a 'proper' paintball jersey is it supposed to be worn over the top of a normal top or does everyone just wear the jersey?

I dont know how it works in terms of what you can wear in tournaments etc, iirc you are limited but someone may need to comfirm that

But for training and walkons etc you can wear what you want really, tshirts, jerseys, jumpers (lol) under jersey armour etc.

Depends how much padding you want or whatever :)

Personally I have just played in t-shirts (only just got my jersey) but ill probs be playing in my jersey(s) with a thin tshirt underneath.

hope that helps a bit :)

k dont hold me 2 this but im almost sure this is correct.

Tornys let you wear one t-shirt + jersey "cold days" 2 t-shirts jersy
jersys should be bought in one size bigger as you get bounces but if ur a small and you get say a XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXL then they will say off and get make you get a small jersy.

Pants is i think just pants in the summer but when it gets cold you can where like trackys under them.

pads dont count as a layer of clothing as far as im aware as i know people who wear pads+T-shirt+jersey

Hope this helps and if you need any more help just PM me or post some where ill see it :D

Thanks Mike

its actually 2 layers (3 layers) so either a t-shirt + jersey or bounce vest + jersey
