Knee and Elbow Pads | Clothing
While any sane paintball player is smart enough to wear long pants and a long sleeved shirt, many are astute enough to wear extra protection as well. Extra protection may include chest and neck protectors, headwraps and slide shorts. Other protective paintball clothing a player might wear would include knee and elbow pads. Knee and Elbow Pads are essential in games where players will be doing a lot of heavy running and sliding, and especially in games where there are hostile ground surfaces. There are a number of regulations in place when it comes to tournament speedball surfaces, but some arenas will be better maintained than others. You only get one body, and it is best to wear everything that you will need in games to protect it from getting injured. Wearing knee and elbow pads will make sliding and diving behind bunkers a lot easier knowing that your limbs will be protected through hard impacts with the ground. Also, as an additional source of protection, some players wear shin pads to protect their entire lower body. Redz Shin Padz is a dual knee and shin protection system that is made of Kevlar, Velcro, and neoprene. When wearing the Redz Knee/Shin Padz, players will be prepared for any terrain they will need to navigate through to dodge bullets and remain in the game.

Some knee pads exclusively cover the players, knee while others go over the knee to also cover the shin and thigh.
