Lightweight and fast, these pants let you charge the field, while inner leg venting keeps you cool under fire. Reinforced stitching for the longevity of your gear. Padded knees, crotch and yoke for extra protection.

First thoughts:
I got these when I first started paintballing around 5-6 months ago. I went to my local shop, starting looking around for a good pair of pants and I stumbled upon these. To be honest, I wanted pants quickly and didn't think twice about any I would get. Also the price got to me.
Appearance:
The knees make it look like you have a huge tumor on your knee cap, but other than that is fine. It has two pockets with Velcro security, and also has a cotton swab holder on your left thigh. It took me awhile to figure it out, but there is also another pocket next to the cotton swab holder.
Performance:
It shoots ropes.......All joking aside, they are comfortable and they have yet to rip on me, if they ever do. They are really light and very comfortable.
Reliability:
I have had these for around 6 months and they haven't ripped on me. I play a mixture of speedball and recball, but mostly speedball, and I have done slides and super man slides, etc. They haven't ripped. Also, I kept my phone in my pocket for around 2 hours, my phone was fine.
Value:
Since it's $100, you'd expect ****ty material, but it's made of just fine material. It's cheap (which is surprising coming from Proto). If you are just starting out or need new pair of pants, get these.
Pros:
-Light
-Durable
-Free air conditioning inside
-A few pockets
-decently deep pockets
-Padding on the butt and knees, but not enough to where you don't need knee pads.
-Pull things at the ankles (Don't know what it's called...). Like that's on a barrel condom
-Straps at the waist so you can fit it perfectly
Cons:
-Knees are huge
-A bit boring looking, but who cares lmao
-Nothing really vital
Final Thoughts:
These are great pants for $100. It doesn't have a rag in the pockets like Empire's, but you're paying another $30 for those. If you're thinking of these, get them. You won't regret it.
