Shorts, libero shirts, high socks, warm-up jackets: the textile for volley outfits the player from the first touch of the ball to the last point of the decisive set, both indoors and in tournaments.
This page brings together men's, women's, and junior cuts, club uniforms, and training gear. Start with your audience, then refine by category, size, and team colour.
A volleyball player jumps, dives, slides on the floor and raises their arms above the net dozens of times per match. Their outfit must move with them without pulling or riding up. A fitted shirt doesn't hinder the attack and doesn’t get caught in the net during a block. A short pair of shorts gives the thighs freedom to bend when receiving. Technical polyester fabrics, lightweight and quick to dry, keep the skin dry from one set to the next, while cotton gets heavy as soon as it gets wet.
Start with your body shape. The men's textile page features looser fits at the bust and longer at the back, from shirts to tracksuits. The women's textile page includes fitted shirts, short shorts, bras, and leggings. For young players, the junior textile page groups children’s sizes, often expressed in age or height: the product sheet guide is more reliable than usual sizing.
Do you know what you need? The clothing page sorts all textiles by category, such as shirts, shorts, sweats, or jackets, without distinguishing between audiences. The socks have their own page, featuring match pairs and training sets. The brands page leads you straight to your favorite supplier, and the packs page bundles several items from the same range. If you're short on ideas, check out the favorite pieces of volleyball players on the best-selling textiles page.
In volleyball, the libero wears a shirt in a different color from their teammates, so the referee can spot them at a glance. A team always orders at least one distinct shirt. The page also offers shirts in the colours of the French national team, in home, away, and libero versions, as well as club items like Chaumont or Volley Mulhouse Alsace. For a club, it’s best to choose a range available in several colors and adult and children sizes, to dress all categories in the same outfit.
Some brands hold the essence of volleyball textiles. Errea, an Italian brand, outfits the French national volleyball teams and provides most of the team's shirts listed on the page. Hummel, the Danish brand with chevrons, ranges its hmlAUTHENTIC and hmlLEAD collections from shirts to jackets. Mizuno, a Japanese brand, supplies team textiles and sock packs. Joma, a Spanish brand, focuses on tracksuits and shirts in many colours. Erima, a German collective sports brand, coordinates jackets and club kits. Kempa completes the offering with shorts and jackets designed for indoor sports.
A volleyball outfit doesn't stop at textiles. The indoor volleyball shoes provide the cushioning and grip needed for repeated jumps. Knee pads and sleeves are found on the protection page. And if you play in the summer on the sand, the beach page gathers beach-volleyball equipment.
To equip an entire team without draining the club's budget, start with the special textile offers. The textile clearance page gathers the last sizes and colours, ideal for restocking a missing shirt or short. Later in the year, watch out for the Black Friday textile, followed by the winter textile sales.
In matches, you wear your team’s shirt and shorts, along with socks and indoor shoes. At training, a technical t-shirt and a pair of shorts that allow easy movement are enough. Add knee pads if you play in defence or receive.
No, their shirt must be distinct in color from the other players. The rest of the outfit, shorts and socks, generally matches that of the team. Check your competition rules before ordering.
Not necessarily. Team shirts are designed to be worn close to the body, and a size that's too big floats during the attack. Each brand has its guidelines, so compare your measurements with the chart on the product page before confirming.
Turn it inside out, choose a cold or warm cycle and skip the fabric softener, which is bad for technical fabrics. The heat from the tumble dryer can peel off numbers and names, so let it dry on a hanger. Your print will last much longer.
A lightweight technical polyester that dries quickly keeps the skin dry from one set to the next, where cotton becomes heavy. Volleyball mainly requires freedom for shoulders and thighs, so prefer fitted cuts. In a match, the outfit is that of your club.
