Well, I've decided to post up the first topic here besides the test one, and decided to see what everyone else thinks of Valkens new gear. If you've used any of it or tried any on please post and tell us how it is.

Personally, I like the designs and intend to buy the gold skull redemption pants when I wear out my C9's. I own the 3+4 redemption pack and its awsome. The rubber pull tabs are easy to get a grip on, its easy to put pods in if your playing woodsball, its light and COMFORTABLE. The only times I really know its on is when I can hear the paint bouncing around when i run or when I sit down and feel the pods in my back. Theres also a nice hidden pocket that I didnt notice the first time I wore it.

I own the Redemption set (pants, jersey, pod pack, gloves, tank cover), and it is good stuff. Way better than my old gear. Great padding, zippable pockets, great pod pack, and the jersey is awesome. The stitching and quality is also top-notch and gives you that feeling that it'll last. Go check it out though as I only have first hand experience with the redemption line.

Oh yea, and they look badass, but my practical self almost always forgets to point that out.

I have knee and elbow pads and gloves.

They are great: lots of padding, very thick and confortable

I love my Valken gear. I own the V-Tac Line, and Crusade line. Very comfortable and comes is larger sizes. (up to 5XL) The jerseys are light and vent well. Check them out at ANSGEAR.com. Valken also has Team Sponsorships that offer discount prices on their products. www.valken.com

Well, I the Valken Echo vest. Short conclusion: Awesome. The Valken FlexFit Hat. Love it. Thanks Jorj & Ian. And I had the honor to fail/pass 40 SW-1 Valken markers, replace the clamshells on 19, and test/dryfire them all. Compact model 98, with all the perks. Okay marker.

I bought and wore their V-tac full finger gloves and elbow pads yesterday, no complaints. The gloves feel really nice and the elbow pads work just fine.

i think the new vtac line is pretty nice.

My opinion my be biased as a Valken dealer but i like their gear more than any other that i sell. I purposely push their gear because i know that at the end of the day its what any p[layer would be most happy with considering overall quality/style and longevity.

I personally prefer the Empire gear. Oh, wait. Same shit...

I have a pair of their Zulu pants where the zipper has come apart and the meshing is starting to fray after only 5 uses. Sadly disappointed and I contacted their support 5 days ago to try to see if there was any warranty or anything and still no response.
