Hello

My friend told me that if you wear baggy gear then it's more likely to catch the ball and not explode it, might be worth investigating :)

For me it always been speedball clothing, they have built in paddings and very comfy to wear. Our team jersey has a very thick pads down the elbow then I also wear a elbow pads and bounce vest under it as well as a knee pads and slide short underneath the pant. Im almost like a walking pillow and paints bounces off me all the time

I've decided to go with a happy compromise and go with my camo trousers and an old hoodie.(best of both worlds). Its got to be better than the overalls,for me personaly they just don't fit right. But when do they ever? I must admit i prefer woods ball but I'm happy to play whatever. (y)
You know what they say, one size fits none.

Plenty pockets for mask wipes and all that rubbish you end up carting about is what I go for!

if you are sticking to woodsball then i would go for camouflage or plain dark colors, not bright colors as you will be easily seen

I managed to pick up some goretex trousers off ebay for around £20, green Ex Army, do the job grand. Nice and baggy and breathable which should help.
