The Hottest Brand Names in Volleyball

When you're shopping for volleyball gear, whether it's a great pair of shoes or a practice ball for the backyard, you want to make sure you're not just getting the best for your money. You want to make sure you're getting the best for your game. It's often tempting to settle for second best and put away the difference for that weekend trip to Malibu, but the bottom line is that the last thing you want to do is cut corners when it comes to your equipment.

Not only does cheap equipment wear out faster (and usually at the worst possible moment), it can also have some nasty side effects. Fallen arches, blisters and banged up knees aren't fun, but that's exactly what you'll get when you cut corners on the quality of your gear.

Since I opened the doors of the Volleyball Pro Shop I've made it my mission to carry the hottest names in volleyball gear to make sure that my customers don't just get the best deals for their money. I want to make sure they get the best deal for their game. Everyone has their own preferences when it comes to equipment, and it won't be long before you too develop your own personal taste in the style and brand of your volleyball gear; however, if you're new to the game and trying to figure out if you're being scammed by a slick sales pitch and a good price tag, here are some high quality brand names to look for:

Accessories and Cool Spandex: Pre-Wrap, Funkadelic Shorts

Shoes: Mizuno, Asics, Nike

Balls: Mikasa, Tachikara

Protective Gear and Uniforms: Mizuno, Tandem Sports, Adidas

You deserve the best every time you step out the court. Good equipment doesn't just benefit your game. It lasts longer, plays better and protects your game more smoothly than cheap imitations.
