Elite Paintball Guns

As we move to the next brand of gloves you see how much the appearance change. Now if we have to compare appearance I’m so not charmed by this one. The brown in the palm of your hand is quite out of place and looks kinda pretty bad according to me…but hey, different people, different styles. And besides look is not everything (although it is highly honored in this game) the gloves still have to do the job they’re made for. If I have to compare those with the Dye ones I’ll personally stuck with the Dye. Still the Empire Contact 07 has one little advantage before the Dye gloves – there’s no need to cut the fingers. Those little pockets on the knuckles make the fingers of the glove very flexible and comfortable – you get a really good grip of your gun and nice sensitivity to the trigger. Check some other features:
• Contact fingers for the first time an actual glove design that works for your shooting fingers. The patent pending micro-membrane design hugs your index and middle trigger fingers so you can feel the sensitive micro-switches that fire todays electronic markers. Developed so the backs of your fingers are still protected but you can rapidly pull the trigger and achieve the high rates of fire that electronic markers are capable of.
• Knuckle gel pad sewn in for the ultimate impact protection.
• Kevlar reinforced palm pads where you need it most. Sliding? Go ahead put your hand down.
• Clarino Palm not only is this one of the best feeling thin palm materials but it wont turn your hands the same color as your gloves
• Lycra hinged fingers and thumb, again we know how important it is for you to become one with your marker. We took every consideration in flex especially in the thumb to make sure you dont even realize you have gloves on
• Medical Velcro closure with gusset, keeping the gloves on and the dirt out
• Micro fiber embossed thumb panels so you can buff up or remove any unwanted splatter from your lenses without scratching them
• Silicone palm- its like superglue on your hands. Paintball can be a messy sport and we dont want you dropping your $1000 dollar marker out there.
• Reverse wrist closure for mobility, these gloves actually allow you to bend back your hand easier no matter what position you are shooting from
• Neoprene wrist bone coverage because we know you dive into the snake. Weve got it covered.
• Breathable Airprene construction for maximum protection and comfort
So why would I stuck with the Dye one – beside looks the Dye gloves are protect your hands better than these ones. Not that the Contact 07 doesn’t have the padding, it’s just weaker than the C7’s. And the Contact 07 need a lot more time to break down and start feeling comfortable than the Dye C7, or even the C6. Still they are good gloves and if you’re an Empire fan, those are the gloves for you. You can get them for $29.94 and the colors you can choose from are black, blue and red.

After the Dye C6 this is the next generation of the Dye gloves – the C7. Since the C6 are a great gloves to have you would expect the C7 to be even better. And they are. Not by much as if you’ve read the previous review you know how few weaknesses the C6 had, but still even they’ve been overcome. The C7 has new design as you can see from the picture and dare to deny it doesn’t look awesome. I think they beat its ancestors by far. And since I’ve already mentioned that they are better that means hat they get all the good qualities that the C6 have – the comfort, the durability, the venting and the good protection provided. Check the gloves description:
• Microinjection DYE logo with direct venting
• Compression formed neoprene body for superior protection
• Direct injection knuckle guards
• Anatomically correct finger position and cut pattern for superior comfort and longevity
• Durable hook and loop closure system
• Internally padded compression formed palm for added comfort and protection
• Vented, 4-way stretch gussets for circulation and comfort
• Internal Sensi-Touch fingers dramatically increase trigger sensitivity, resulting in a more responsive trigger feel
• Microfiber palm provides superior durability and a better overall sensation on the palm
• Crosshatch impregnated silicone patterned microfiber palm
• Stretch materials used at critical flex points ensure bind free movement during rapid trigger pulls
So what were the disadvantages that were in the previous review? The fringes – that’s solved with the pre-sewn cuts. If you want to cut the tips go ahead without worrying about fringes. As to the part where you have to wear the gloves a little longer so they can get really comfy…that stays only if those are your first gloves and you’re not used of wearing any. That’s not a disadvantage by my standards…this will happen with any gloves you buy. Yeah, well after all those superlatives you know there have to be a catch somewhere…there is – the price. If you can get the C6 for $24.94 for the C7 you have to pay $44.94. For those of you who don’t really have problem with that price, I say get those, but for the others who can’t really afford them – you’ll be ok with the C6 too. Both choices are great – the C7 has a little bit more style in them. And style does not accept only one shade, so the choices of colors are plenty. You can get them in black/grey, olive green, gold, blue and red. The rest is up to you.

Gloves are just a small part from all the gear you have to have before going to the paintball playing field. You know there is plenty of choice on the market, but when it comes to paintball products you can’t deny Dye is a name with traditions in this field. Gloves like all their other products are highly valued. And there is why. It’s not a secret that paintball is a sport where looks really matter and those are one of the hottest looking gloves I have seen. Still look is not everything…you know, no matter how good some things look if you can’t use them there’s no point of buying them. Here look is combined with comfort and durability. The gloves re very well ventilated which prevents the sweating of the hand. There are also tiny weaves of rubber that help reduce slippage extremely well. And probably the most important padding is also great. There’s padding simply everywhere making the gloves the perfect protection against hand shots. Here the gloves’ features:
• Microinjection DYE logo with direct venting
• Compression formed neoprene body for superior protection
• Direct injection knuckle guards
• Anatomically correct finger position and cut pattern for superior comfort and longevity
• Durable hook and loop closure system
• Internally padded compression formed palm for added comfort and protection
• Vented, 4-way stretch gussets for circulation and comfort
• Internal Sensi-Touch fingers dramatically increase trigger sensitivity, resulting in a more responsive trigger feel
• Microfiber palm provides superior durability and a better overall sensation on the palm
• Crosshatch impregnated silicone patterned microfiber palm
• Stretch materials used at critical flex points ensure bind free movement during rapid trigger pulls
There are not really some big weaknesses in the Dye gloves. If you decide to cut the fingers this may cause fringes so if you do that make sure you burn the cut area so it can seal up and not fringe. Another slightly discomfort thing is that the gloves must be worn longer in order to start feeling really comfortable. This is true to all the gloves out there, but still is discomfort. Other than that this gloves are just perfect. Even the price is not something to complain about. They cost $24.94 and you can find them in black/red or black/ grey shade. Sizes are also available.
