First off hi to everyone this is my first post :D been lurking around the forum for a while but never joined, i dunno why haha.

Anyway, just got a quick question. I've been paintballing a few times now and was planning to start getting together my own gear and maybe going more regularly. So obviously i need something to protect my pretty face, but unfortunately its attached to my rather big head. Its not huge like a bobble head but its above average id say.

I originally looked at the Dye i4's but found out they were pretty tiny so i was looking at the e-vents. Are these bigger than the i4's? and would they be alright for bigger noggins like myself?

Sorry if this has been posted elsewhere, i have had a look around and couldn't see anything.

Thanks

I've got a big fat head and my E-Vents fit fine, much nicer fitting than the i4s, much more lower face protection :)

The i4;s are built for tiny heads therefore offering little on no protection for a chin that juts out of the bottom.
I seem to have a larger bonce than most and use E vents and they fit perfectly ...and look cool as well!

I have a large chin the only thing that seems to hold it is my JT proflex's. I have the new E-vents and Grillz and have tried numerous types and the JT proflex's give me the best protection all round. The E-vents are a good fit though a lot better than the I4's but if you want to save money I also found the I3 Pros worked nicely, but were rather warm and heavy on the head.

Hope this helps.

If you're going to Planet - try some on first!

Or if you are near Ashton (UL) then you're welcome to try my sons Vents (not E-Vents) if you wish.

Try out VForce's goggles. I've been a big fan of the Profilers since the beginning, comfy and great face coverage. The Grillz are a bit smaller and lower profile but still pretty good. Also you have the advantage of vforce lenses being far and away the best there are (in my opinion of course). They are thermocured single pane lenses that are a lot tougher and harder wearing than what other companies offer, unlike thermal lenses with other goggle systems you can just run them under water to clean off any paint.
