I am surveying business owners and players to find if there are enough girls players out there to market girls specific gear? NOT just t’shirts and tank tops. What do you think about a chest protector that caters to the female shape? Or clothing made with protective padding in it that caters to her shape and makes her look like a girl and not a guy!? Clothing/Gear that is protective enough that you don’t have to layer and buy all the extra accessories like elbow pads and knee pads? I've seen the t'shirts and tanks but they dont protect you from the hard hitting paintballs that come flying at you at top speed and leave welts and bruise marks for weeks. Besides answering my question, can you give me a few professional girl teams that I can try to survey either on this site or in person? Let me know your thoughts. Thanks.

I suggest doing deeper research then just putting up poll. Your not going to get much info from here.

not even close imo.

I suspect that there's not enough of a population to support a dedicated protective line, although it certainly seems to be a good niche market. I also suspect that if you ask the population here, string bikinis would be all that the woman needs for protection...

There's a post on the SpecialOpsPaintball forum by Becc who is pretty into it from the female perspective paintballwise. You might want to check there.

anyone that answered yes is clueless.

You sound like you don't even play paintball yourself. A company with no heart in the sport doesn't go far in this industry

excluding KEE, JT, Dangerous Power, Rap4, and overpriced woodsball fields that you find in small towns.

there are barely any females that play this sport, and of the very few that do, not many of them are looking to get all protected up. So your potential market is smaller than paint hore's dick.

You do get the occasional ******* bringing his girlfriend to play but it's not like he's going to drop serious coin on protective gear for that rare occasion.

In short, its a terrible, terrible idea.
I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.
