    Paintball Gloves

    I think Mechanix make the best gloves for paintball. I just picked up new mutlicam pair for the season.

    What do you guys use?

    Old work gloves?

    Exalt death grip. There are lots of knock offs but exalts are the best for a reason. On the back the bones are raised padding. Most others it's just printed or flat at a minimum. Hk army make some that in photos look almost identical but in person the differences are easy to see.

    I like them so much I ended up getting 2 pairs so for my big games I could switch out for a dry pair. My first pair is still going strong, no problems, roughly 4 years of use, light use I would say though

    I’ve been using these JT fingerless ones with a puffy back side and a leather palm for a couple years. Highly recommend, I burn through the palm of about one Pair a year though.

      I love these when they have the patch of microfiber on the thumb section too. I nab them whenever I see a set pop up on ebay. JT and Brass Eagle branded

    When I used to play a lot of outlaw, I would always wear gloves, but recently I’ve got away from wearing them in favor of greater trigger control/feel. It’s a bit of a risk and sometimes I get bloody knuckles, but that doesn’t really bother me in the long run.

        I like to run mx/mtb gloves. I gave a pair that have the viscoelastic (d3o) knuckle protection. No complaints so far.

          I second the Exalt death grips that Trbo323 mentioned. I have a second hand pair that has seen several seasons, and a newer pair. The internal grips are great, dexterity is top notch. The little bones pads have started flaking off, but that is entirely due to me tossing them in the dryer.

              best general work gloves ever. I like a little more padding on the back for paintball.

            The last time I bought gloves from a paintball company must have been more than 10 years ago. I've been using Mechanix gloves since then and never looked back. Cheap and decently solid.

            "Nope."

              Half finger Mechanix gloves are my go-to.

                I have/had the exalt gloves for a while now. But I don't feel that the last few pairs haven't been as good. I went with these and they are really durable. They have other styles but I like more subtle looks 🤣

                They also don't make my hands sweat as bad as the Exalt did. They also seem to protect my hands very well.

                    ULine gloves. Had them customized for my team, but $14 per pair, are covered in the shiny rubber grippies, and tough as nails. I've had mine for 4 years now and they have been through the ringer and have held up. I have no idea why a paintball company hasn't paired up with them or with mechanix and done a collaboration like some do with shoe companies. The best gloves for paintball are not from paintball companies, and that's weirder than handerpants.

                        I use some generic finger-less gloves that have flexible but sorta hard black plastic glued/fastened over the knuckles/back of the hand. I dunno the brand, they were at the paintball store and cost me like $10. They don't do diddly for fingertip hits but they do guard against shots to the knuckles/back of the hand, which is why I bought them; I have a scar on my thumb that's almost 30 years old from a knuckle shot.
