Yeah, seriously.

It sounds like you're setting her up to be a liability more than an asset for the team she's on. I dunno where or whom you play with; if its just small games with buddies then whatever.

But if you're coming out to organized events, while you and a small handful of people might get a chuckle out of it and think its cute, you'll find its a great way to get the bulk of serious players annoyed with you in a big hurry.

BDUs: they're standard. Get the right size and they'll fit properly. Its not hip hop fashion, its not supposed to wear baggy. Get a combat shirt instead of a BDU blouse if you're worried about heat.

Vest: get a basic vest or something useful for the gun she's using.

Boots: seriously, were stiletto heels ever an option being considered?

Goggles/shooting glasses: I think most women prefer the Bolle T800s since they're a bit smaller.

Gloves: Mechanix are cheap and will protect from impacts.

Mouthguard: You probably don't want a gf missing a bunch of teeth. Protechs are small and comfortable.

Hydration: a Camelbak or something is useful. Teach her to hydrate properly.


Additional requirements will become known as needs develop.
