Carbon Protective Gear
Carbon Protective Gear
Carbon paintball protective gear is some of the most reliable and well-known protective gear in the paintball world. It is widely recognized for its high performance and long-lasting nature which are both lightweight and remarkably durable. Speedballers as well as woods-ballers both trust Carbon gear to hold up to years of punishment. These products have won the hearts (and knees and elbows) of players across the country at a price point that cannot be beaten.
Carbon Bottoms and Tops
Carbon bottoms and Carbon tops are some of the most reliable and high-performing pieces of equipment in the industry. Players love them because of the padding on the knees, hips, and crotch. Many players recommend purchasing these bottoms a size larger than what you would normally order since they are very tight and form-fitting. Other players have found the best results by wearing them as an under-layer underneath other pants or joggers. This helps provide padding, and extra comfort, and can even help you slide more easily while playing speedball. Wearing Carbon clothing under other layers also keeps it clean and therefore gives it a longer useful life. The pants are also made with a breathable fabric making them ideal for outdoor play in hot summer weather.
Carbon Sleeves
The Carbon SC Elbow Sleeves are moisture-wicking and are great for protecting players’ arms on hot days. The padding is anatomically designed to protect the most vulnerable parts of the arms—the forearms and the elbows—from bruising. The 85/15 mixture of polyester and spandex helps the sleeves fit snugly on the arm without moving around and sliding up or down, even while running, diving, and sliding.
Knee Pads
The Carbon CC Knee Pads are a player’s best friend, especially when sliding and diving are a key part of the game. The pads’ have a non-slip backing which keeps them in place during the most vigorous gameplay and the low profile can easily fit under other clothing. The ergonomic design gives players a full range of motion while also having maximum protection with a double layer of impact foam.
Carbon Gloves
Carbon Event Gloves are lightweight minimalist gloves that help players get a better purchase on their gun and other paintball accessories like pods and tanks. The glove is made of nylon and double-dipped with a durable coating on the palm of the hand for enhanced grip. The minimalist design helps players handle their markers without bulky padding getting in the way. Please note that these gloves provide minimal protection for hand shots. If you’re concerned about getting hit on the hand, you may want to consider a different pair of gloves.
