The C8 pant is the ultimate collaboration between pro athletes, product developers and designers. Featuring a harness-stabilizing back yoke, and new inseam materials that give you complete range of motion in all directions. Increased venting overall helps make the pant lighter and more comfortable. New 3D contoured padding on the hips and back yoke enhance protection while improving mobility. Heavy-duty ballistic nylon flex-panels with responsive air-foam padding now on the sides and knees. Most importantly, we reduced the weight of the pant by almost half a pound. All this culminates in a pant engineered to perfection.
Dye C8 Pants Features:
HEAVY DUTY BALLISTIC KNEES
We’ve integrated ballistic nylon into flex panels around the knees and side panels to help withstand the most aggressive abuse. Flex-panels keep up with your speed and motion without being stiff, while quilted sections of responsive air-foam add protection. Taking these steps reduces the wear not only on your pants, but your joints as well.
FLEX KNEES
A key to playing good paintball is speed and movement. That’s the idea behind our C8 Pants. Providing a maximum range of motion without being stiff, the flex knees offer durability with movement.
ADJUSTABLE WAIST
Our adjustable waist not only allows you to change the fit of your pant, but the internal elastic belt also acts as a small, comfortable kidney belt.
VENTING
The inseam features a vented mesh material. The inseam features vented mesh material. Whether your crouching, crawling, or kneeling, the pant breathes with you. Venting surrounds the back yoke, padded zipper fly and extends all the way down to the knee for increased circulation.
TRIPLE S TITCH When something is triple-stitched, the seam has 3 times the strength of a normal stitched seam. It’s a feature that adds longevity, so you can get a full season from these pants...minimum.
PADDED AND VENTED CROTCH
Nothing is quite as essential as a padded crotch protector. We introduced this feature to the industry years ago, and now we’ve made it better by utilizing compression formed materials. Increased ventilation offers even more cooling comfort.
SWAB POCKET Holds standard flex swabs or stick swabs.
ADJUSTABLE CUFFS For those of you who like a tight cuff, the adjustable ankle cuffs allow the perfect fit for any type of cleat.
VENTED NYLON The entire back of the leg, from the knee joint down, is now vented nylon. This large of an area can provide more circulation than your car’s air conditioner. Well, almost.
REINFORCED SEAT Sliding can be hard on your pants. We know this from experience. That’s why we’ve reinforced the seat. This will extend the life of your C8 Pant.
HYPER-FLEX YOKE The back yoke is a crucial part of your pant has to move, it has to protect, and it has to keep your harness in place. Harness-stabilizing direct injection keeps your pack where you need it to be. Featuring a Hyper-Flex outer section and stretch under layer for increased movement. This dual-layer with pass through venting keeps your back side cool, preventing sweat build up and harness twist.
REAR AIR CHANNEL In case you haven’t noticed, we’re big on venting. We’ve found another place to add more. Rear air channels help direct heat away from your legs. Again, helping to cool you down faster.
Contour PADDING This year we are introducing wrap around side padding. This unique design uses compression formed foam to provide extra side protection for your hip bones and thighs while diving or sliding.
