Command the sands with beach volleyball attire
Beach volleyball players look for light, quick-drying clothes that move with the body and don’t attract as much sand. Tops, shorts and rash guards are some of the most common pieces, though the rules allow for a variety of clothes.
If you’re practising or playing casually, a pair of simple bottoms, like these black shorts, work well for movement, especially when it’s hot.
Buyers tend to pick their gear based on breathability, stretch, and sun protection that’ll support movement while still keeping them safe. Look for UPF ratings on the tops, and opt for flat seams to avoid chafing.
Volleyball clothing for the perfect game
When you’re deciding on a cut that works for you, consider the comfort levels and how often you’ll be playing. Modern volleyball clothing ranges from close racerbacks to relaxed crop tops and sweat-resistant shorts. Choose waistbands that stay put when diving, and pick low bulk seams near the hips.
Match your crop tops or tees with fitted shorts for ease of movement during play, or try a sport bra under a loose singlet for training sessions.
Shoes are rare on sand, but sand socks offer grip and protection from hot surfaces. For your trip to the sand, there is a wide range of lightweight trainers to choose from
Find the right size and keep ‘em safe
When you shop, compare the clothing measurements with a favourite item and check leg inseam and waistband height for comfort. Many online listings include stretch percentages and size guides to help pick the right fit for you.
You can layer for mornings and evenings with a light hoodie over a top and loose track pants that can be rolled up between sets. A compact top or blue hoodie works for warm-ups and warm-down periods.
To keep your clothes as fresh as you are, make sure you care for them properly. Wash tech fabrics in cool water and steer clear of fabric softeners to make sure the moisture-wicking properties stay intact.
