im in need of a new set of paintball pants and a jersey and i was looking at the smart parts defender set... the price was perfect for me because im trying to save some money... after all whats the point of having new pants and a jersey if i cant afford to play?.. so i was looking for some advice on the pants and jersey.. like where is the padding? how thick is the padding? are they comfortable? how durable are they? etc.... o and some sizing would be nice. im 6'1" about 160... 32 in the waist.. 34 in the length.

thanks

I dont know much about them, but they arnt very dependable.
Those were my first pair of pants.
I guess there good for a beginner, or someone that will not be sliding that much.
But they knees got torn up pretty bad. However, they were very confertable.

Might i recomend, the Proto pants. I have them, and they are amazing, and very cheap. They sell them at Sports Authority, and Academy Sports.

Goodluck.

smrt parts paintball clothing line i dont trust them not one bit...this is because i have experienced it for myself. i tried to do the same as you save money etc...but instead i did not look at how this stuff is made and how durable it is.... my buddy and i got smart parts gear for our first gear it seamed ok but after the 3rd time playing you can feel the fibers in the pants get loose.. the 4th time i was playing snake that day i dove in to s1 and i felt a tear on my inner thigh my pants ripped about 8-10 inches then the next game i played snake again i got to s2 off break and dove again the pants literaly ripped almost completely in half.. my buddy his tore in the crotch area... if you want amazing good quality but a fare price for pants get proto's they are really good even jt's but the will tear faster if you play on rocks... so thats my story i hope it helps btw im selling a proto jersey check my sig
