Ahh! Which Paintball Mask should I buy!! Zephyr Sports has a lot of choices when it comes to buying paintball goggles. Should I go for a cheap paintball mask? Or a good thermal mask? The paintball mask is probably the most important piece of paintball equipment you own. If you can't see, you don't know where your shooting or who's shooting at you. Thermal paintball masks have a dual pane lens with a foam seal to keep the moisture out similar to a dual pane window in your house. This will keep your paintball mask fog free in all but the most extreme conditions.

More Information:
You might think finding the perfect paintball mask is the least of your worries but actually its one of the main priorities in finding the perfect setup for your paintball experience. Not just for the looks or comfort, but for the safety of yourself. Now you may be browsing through and notice that the price somewhat varies between the different types of masks. Well, when you are looking at the design of a paintball mask that is more expensive it becomes lighter, provides more padding, better fog resistance and more ventilation. Let's start with a basic mask. The Proto EL is a basic starter mask that may not be the most comfortable but will do the job by protecting your noggin. It provides a woven goggles strap that you can adjust for the perfect fit. There is foam padding for the ears. Throughout the mask there are tiny holes for ventilation to help with fogging. The Proto EL has a single lens that is NOT Anti-fog. Depending on where you live could decide if a single lens will work or not. If you live in a very humid area a THERMAL LENS, which is a duel pane lens (makes it anti-fog) would be the more accurate choice so you don't have to worry about fogging while in game. An example of a very comfortable thermal mask is the Empire Events. The Events would fall in the category of a high end mask. What makes this mask worth more than the Proto EL? The Empire Events are lighter, have SOFT EARS for more padding, greater ventilation and a Thermal lens. The lens itself is very easy to remove. An active player might find that changing the lens is a high concern for them. Being active and playing once or twice a week you may run into more ware on your lenses. Also, the Events are more low profile then the Proto EL. You want a light thin design to keep yourself away from being a big target and also for easy maneuvering which makes the Events the better choice. Can I wear my glasses while I play? What's great about some of the paintball masks that we carry is that they provide enough room for your eye glasses. A good choice for eye glasses is the V-force Profiler mask. With these bug eyed lens you have enough room to wear your eye glasses while being comfortable. JT Masks and V-force are usually a good choice for eye glasses, but you may want to take a look at the new Sly Profit with built in eyeglass slits.
