Protections Mizuno for Black Friday

Libero who spends half the match on their knees, receiver-hitter who combines forearm passes and dives: the Mizuno protections for Black Friday are made for positions that live close to the ground. Knee pads VS1, Team and Open Back, elbow pads, arm compression sleeves, shorts and undershirts are on sale.

The Japanese brand is one of the big names in volleyball, both in shoes and in protections.

The VS1, knee pads for defenders who go to the floor

The VS1 is the most popular knee pad in the selection, available in black, white, navy blue, blue, and red. Its padding protects the front of the knee as well as both sides, inside and outside, which hit the court when you dive to the right or left. It is sold in pairs and is well suited for liberos and receivers, who defend with every rotation.

Team or Open Back: two other cuts Mizuno

The Team knee pad completes the range in navy blue, white, red, and black, easy shades to pair with almost any jerseys, allowing to match a whole team at once. The Open Back, as its name suggests, is open at the back of the knee: the hollow of the leg stays exposed, providing real comfort during long sessions.

Elbow pads and arm sleeves for the arm covers

The elbow pads Mizuno, in black or yellow, absorb falls on the elbow when you dive to retrieve a ball. Compression sleeves for the arms, sold in pairs, cover the forearm and limit floor burns. Many players also wear them when receiving, when a powerful serve comes in hard on the forearms.

Under shorts and under jerseys: shorts and base layers Mizuno

The shorts, like the mid-length MZN RB leggings in black or navy, support the thighs and prevent chafing when you quickly get up after a defense. The long-sleeve base layer Team Core keeps the shoulders warm during stoppages and between sets, without interfering with the attacking gesture.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find cheap VS1 knee pads Mizuno during Black Friday?

The discounted VS1s are at the top of this page, in all their colours. The product type filter lets you compare them with the Team and Open Back models.

What size of VS1 knee pad should I choose?

Measure at the point indicated on the chart (usually around the thigh, just above the knee) and compare to the size chart. If in doubt, bend your leg fully: the right size stays in place without marking the skin.

Are elbow pads necessary in volley?

They are not mandatory, but the libero and defenders who dive often quickly appreciate them. A fall on a bare elbow, on a hard court, leaves marks for several days.

Arm sleeves or elbow pads: what to choose?

The sleeves cover the entire forearm and mainly serve against chafing and for receiving. The elbow pads concentrate protection on the elbow bone, for falls. A defender who dives a lot often ends up wearing both.
