Men's jackets and tracksuits for volley

Tracksuit jacket or full set?

The tracksuit jacket alone is fine if you already have bottoms, or if the club only wants a common piece. The full set, with matching jacket and trousers, looks sharper on the move and is often ordered all at once. The Mizuno Team Kobe Knitted tracksuits, made of mesh, are a good example, available in several club colours.

Rain, cold, locker room: the right jacket for every journey

A lightweight waterproof jacket protects between the car park and the hall, and packs away into a bag without taking up space. A puffer jacket, warmer, is ideal for long waits in the stands or winter tournaments. For the bench, a zipped polyester jacket is enough: it falls off in one motion when the coach calls you.

What a club looks at before ordering

Check that the range comes in adult and junior sizes, to dress all the club's teams alike. Also see if a pair of trousers and a sweatshirt from the same line are available. Finally, a jacket with a smooth fabric handles printing or a sewn badge better.

The signatures of team textiles

Errea offers team jackets and the tracksuit of the French team. Hummel focuses on its hmlLEAD Training jacket and the Core 2.0, a waterproof jacket in black, grey, or navy. Mizuno stands out with its Team Kobe volleyball tracksuits. Nike adds its Dri-FIT Form hoodie, and Joma and Erima complete the range with full team collections.

Frequently asked questions

How do I choose the size of a tracksuit jacket?

If you're wearing a simple t-shirt, stick to your everyday size; with a sweatshirt underneath, go up a size. Check the sleeve length in the brand's guide, especially if you're tall. Fitted cuts are indicated in the name of the product.

Is a waterproof jacket really waterproof?

A sports waterproof jacket protects well from a shower on the way. For prolonged rain, check if the seams are sealed and if the hood is adjustable. A simple water-resistant jacket is fine for going from the car park to the gym.

Can a sports puffer jacket be machine-washed?

Yes, most synthetic puffers can be washed in a machine, on a low temperature and delicate cycle. Let them dry flat, shaking them out from time to time to restore volume to the filling. Always read the label before the first wash.

Do all players need the same tracksuit?

No rule requires it, but many clubs ask for it for travel and official matches. It’s also a way to bond the group. Choose a range that stays in the brand’s catalog for several seasons, to be able to complete the order later.

Do the jacket and jogging bottoms have to be from the same brand?

No, nothing mandates it. What matters for a team is the same colour and fit for all players. If you are completing an order later, stick with the same range so that the shades match.
