There is a misnomer out there that you can just wear any socks to play volleyball in. That is untrue. If you talk to any Volleyball Player a bad pair of socks can greatly hinder their game. Listen, is the perfect pair of Volleyball socks going to turn you into Karch Kiraly? The answer to that is no, but they can help. So what do we look for in Volleyball socks? We want a couple of traits:
1. Form fitting – The socks do not want to bunch up. They need to be sleek and allow an easy fit.
2. Lightweight – The lighter the better. Literally ,you want the player to not even know they have socks on.
3. Comfort – If a Volleyball sock is not comfortable then what is the point of it to begin with?
4. Fashion – Hey you are on the Volleyball court and people are looking at you. You should probably look good.
