Headgear with Dye i4s

[El Delementez]

I have a lovely new set of i4s which I cannot fault... apart from in one area - forehead protection.

I've been wearing my i4s with a Dye headwrap - which has been fine recently but last week at Diamond Wars [270 fps limit] I was shot from quite a distance and was left with the following:



So, clearly, I bruise like a peach, and I'm wondering what would be the best headgear to wear to avoid having to explain over and over why I've got a massive bruise on my forehead. Beanie? Back to front Baseball Cap? Tactical helmet?!

I know there is the whole, 'don't get shot in the head' aspect

Any advice is appreciated

tanked or anthrax headband (very padded) and a beanie is what i wear in cold and when i don't want bruises
alternatively be a ninja and never get hit?

I'm clearly no ninja!

I am quite lucky my boss at work plays with us so its one less person to explain it too.

Wear a Benie less hassle

I usually wear a back to front baseball cap (flex fit without a hole) but they offer less protection than a headwrap. Either mod an i3 visor to fit your i4s, or get something like a full clip headband.

Beanie hat with a headband underneath is a safe bet. Or with your head wrap, use that and then tie another headband on top That should protect you enough

Well, bought another headband and a beanie from lips so I'll update the thread with more comedy bruises if it doesn't work haha

I've never had that issue man and I've worn i4s for 2 years. It may have been hard paint as well. I usually wear a headband and a sandana.
