Welcome to the forums!

what are you looking for in your goggles. I.E best protection, lightest weight, easiest lens change? or combination of factors?

Hello and welcome

As P5YCH0 say.

There are not many paintball shops around the UK but the best would be make a day out of it go to one and try on a few pairs ot trousers and masks to see what fits. or if you go to a local size try on a few players masks.

As for masks I have the Dye I3's and Sly Profits I do like both. I owned the Dye I4's didnt like them they didnt fit right on my face so sold them and got the Sly's. As for trousers you are coming into a male dominated sports so most trousers will be designed for guys. I dont think there is any female specific playing gear. (I may be wrong)

Don't forget to budget for some decent pads and boots

Knees, elbows and ankles can take a real hiding playing paintball

Dye i4's are great masks for people with small faces, like me. Next time you're at a day ask someone who has if you can try them on, or if you're lucky use them for a round or two to get a feel of them

A bounce vest is a must too for us ladies. All the pants though are designed for men though.

Hi Essa, you might want to look at this website - I only ordered yesterday so i can't tell you yet how well the product works, but there is a recommendation from a paintballer who says it is good. I thought it was worth a try and their email customer service and response time so far has been superb. Best wishes, Ripley.
