Paintball Goggle Safety – 3 Tips to Make Sure Your Paintball Masks Are Safe

Paintball goggles are probably the most important piece of safety kit you will wear when paintballing, as they protect some of the most sensitive parts of your body such as your eyes. This is why it’s so important to make sure that you carry out the correct checks to make sure that they are safe to use on a paintballing field. In this article I will outline what checks you should carry out to prevent any malfunction with your goggles.

1) Make Sure you have the right size goggle – It may sound obvious but a large proportion of shopping is done on the internet now meaning you don’t get to try on the product before you buy it. To get around this you should find your nearest paintball store and try on the model you are considering buying in a shop this way you will be able to get the right size. The most important things are that the goggles are comfortable and also tight enough to prevent them coming off in a game.

2) Make sure the Straps are Fitted Correctly – Most paintball goggles are fitted with elasticated straps that go under your chin. This is to keep the goggles firmly on your head in a game situation. If the chin straps are not correctly fitted then there is a much greater chance that the goggles will come off of your head in a game situation exposing your face to potential paintball hits.

3) Make Sure The Lens Are Not Cracked – If your paintball goggle lens are cracked then your goggles have a much higher chance of shattering. So it is wise to either check your goggles before each game for cracks. If you do spot a crack then you should either invest in a new pair of goggles or get a professional to replace the lens for you.

If you follow these 3 steps above with regular checks then your paintball masks will protect your face from paintball’s with ease.
