Belted or Beltless
 

Ok I'll admit, I'm bored tonight and not ready to go to sleep. This is a big deal for some guys (women) in basketball, but I never hear any discussion in VB. Do you prefer --- belted or beltless pants. I know, I'm bored, but humor me. Which do you prefer or do you even have a preference?

I've only ever worn beltless. I'd be lying if I said I look at all my partners slacks, but I don't remember any of them ever wearing belted.

Belted.
I just think it looks better.
But then again, I think the striped shirts look better than plain white.

I've got to agree with you on that one.

If I ever have to wear stripes again, I'll drop HS volleyball altogether.

But the stripes are so thinning?:D In all honesty, I like the comfort of the polos better, but I do miss the look of the stripes. Just as long as we don't go to all white shoes. UGHH!

I would welcome the white shoes. Frankly, I'd love to be able to wear the same outfit for my college, club, and HS matches (navy pants, white shoes, white polo) with only a change in patch/patch placement being the difference.

Honestly, I've found the only people who prefer black shoes and the stripes are people for whom volleyball is a secondary sport. The people for whom volleyball is their primary sport overwhelmingly (only in my observations, and I'm not claiming unanimously) prefer the polos, white shoes, and navy pants.

Of course, your mileage may vary.

Speaking of beltless, I have three pair of Honig's B51s (size 36) I'm selling for dirt cheap. I'll let all three go for $50.

Dude, If you don't sell them and I lose a bunch of weight in Spring soccer, I'll call you. I promise. Really. I will.:p

I've only ever known the white polo shirt with black pants, black socks, and black shoes. Personally, I'm glad I didn't experience the striped shirt. I don't know how I would feel about white shoes though. I was looking at the TASO (Texas) web site a few months back, since that's where I'm originally from, and noticed that they wore the white polo with black pants, white socks, and white shoes. At the time I was thinking "yuck", but as Felix says, it's probably because I'm not originally a volleyball guy. Bear with me though Felix...I love volleyball and am working hard at getting better at it, though I know I'll never be as good as you!

Beltless. I wear them for basketball, so they do double duty for VB as well.

Felix:

I guess basketball is your secondary sport. :D

After this year, it won't even be that. :)
