Footwear

New Balance volleyball shoes are a good choice for the volleyball player. This page is all about my review on their shoes and whether or not it is a good fit for players.

New Balance has a long history and reputation of building sports type shoes, especially cross training shoes. So, you should know what you are going to get with this type of a shoe. Although New Balance is not one of the major players in the sports world, they do put out some quality footwear.

Pros

These shoes do offer quite a few features that are important for volleyball players:

• Abzorb® cushioning in both the toe and heel. Perfect to reduce the impact and stress when jumping.
• Stability Web® delivers mid foot support and reduces the weight of the shoe. This will make it easier to move and get to the ball.
• Forefoot flex grooves allow for greater shoe flexibility.
• N-Durance® rubber sole provides maximum durability. I have also found that this type of sole provides better traction on the court.
• Very reasonably priced.

Cons

• Lower name brand recognition. Although this isn’t very important to me, some people are “name brand oriented.”
• This isn’t the most eye catching shoe design.
• There really aren’t a lot of cons. Most of the questions about the New Balance volleyball shoes are about the brand as a whole.

This is a great option if you are in need of a solid pair of volleyball shoes. It may not have the name recognition of, say Nike volleyball shoes, however, they are reasonably priced and worth considering.

If you would like to pick up a pair of these shoes, you can get them from Amazon.com here: New Balance Shoes

If you are looking for the best volleyball socks, then you have come to the right place! This section of the site is dedicated to providing you with the best socks that you can find for playing volleyball in style and comfortably.

When it comes to socks for volleyball, there are a few things that you want to shop for. What you look for really depends on the purpose of the socks.

For me, first and foremost is the performance of the sock. I really like socks that have some kind of moisture control. When my feet are more dry, I do not feel like I am slipping around in my shoes and it also helps my foot to prevent blisters.

Another huge aspect of shopping for socks has to do with comfort. I have some socks in my collection that are my favorite for sports. They just hug my foot, they control the moisture, and provide additional padding inside the shoe. The comfort level is so high, it is almost like I am wearing slippers.

This section of the site will review volleyball socks made my most of the major players in the industry. This would include socks made by Asics, Mizuno, Nike, Under Armor and more. You can get a good idea of what is out there after comparing these major brands.

Socks also need to be durable. I hate buying a pair of socks to find out that they have holes after just a couple of uses. So, you will want to factor in durability into your purchasing decision.

Another very important factor for some is that they are shopping for fashion or style. There are some very crazy looking socks out there that are designed for fashion. I have seen some of the teenage girls make a fashion statement by having some socks that stand out.

With that thought in mind, I will also review some volleyball socks that will help you make an individual statement or your entire team can wow people with your team unity by wearing the same socks.

That is the whole purpose of this section of the website. It is about you finding the right socks for your sport. And it all comes down to the basics…functionality, comfort, durability, and fashion.

These are the factors that these reviews on these socks will address.
