Are you looking for very specifically colored volleyball shoes? Perhaps you want something to match your team’s colors?
This article is a great big list of the top volleyball shoes currently in production in certain unique colorways, so you can find a pair of kicks in the exact color you need!
We’ll start out by going through some of the top colorful volleyball shoes before diving deeper into more specific styles.
A word of caution, there’s a massive global shortage of volleyball shoes right, so finding uniquely colored volleyball shoes that are the perfect size is a bit of a long shot, so try not to get your hopes up…
For that reason I’ve expanded upon the definition of ‘volleyball shoe’ just a little bit to include basketball shoes, general court shoes, as well as a select few running shoes.
If a particular shoe performs poorly on the volleyball court, I’ll look to exclude it from the list entirely, or make sure to include that information so you’re aware of the risks.
Let’s begin!
Best Colorful Volleyball Shoes
The list of colorful volleyball shoes I’ve put together is a pretty solid one!
Starting out with the Adidas Crazyflight, this is undoubtedly Adidas’ best volleyball shoe. It’s known for its a super bouncy cushion with excellent impact protection, making it great for hitters.
The Li-Ning All City 9 is one of the most well designed basketball shoes in recent years and it performs exceptionally well on a volleyball court with a great low to the ground feel, solid traction, and decent cushioning.
The Harden Stepback 2 is a super stylish budget shoe coming in a variety of interesting colorways.
The KD14 is one of the greatest basketball shoes of all time and has top tier cushioning and traction, making it a great all-rounder volleyball shoe as well.
Oh and for those wondering, you absolutely can wear basketball shoes for volleyball!
Adidas Harden Stepback 2
The Harden 2 is an extremely supportive budget shoe with great responsiveness. It’s also one of the better shoes to wear for outdoor volleyball.
Best Volleyball Shoes With Colorful Bottoms
There’s remarkably few shoes with colorful bottoms that resemble volleyball shoes, but I’ve managed to find 4 vibrantly colored kicks that work very well on the volleyball court.
ASICS Gel-Nimbus 23
This is a running shoe and, although very well cushioned, isn’t exactly designed for volleyball and will likely underperform when it comes to lateral movements. Please read my article Are running shoes good for volleyball? before purchasing these for the volleyball court!
Best Purple Volleyball Shoes
There’s very few volleyball shoes in the purple colorway, unfortunately. But if you squint your eyes, the Mizuno Wave Momentums are kind of purple?
Best Purple & Black Volleyball Shoes
The only volleyball shoes that come in purple and black are some relatively old Mizuno designs. Be warned that the Tornados run very small and the Lightnings tend to run on the bigger side!
Best Pink Volleyball Shoes
Techincally speaking, none of these pink shoes are volleyball shoes. However the Curry 9s and Stabil Next Gens are extremely popular shoes often worn by volleyballers.
Best Pink & Black Volleyball Shoes
If pink and black is your thing, you’re in luck because the Lightning Z is actually a pretty decent volleyball shoe!
Best Orange Volleyball Shoes
You won’t find many orange volleyball shoes around the place, but the good news is the Wave Momentum is in my top 2 volleyball shoes of all time, so it’s a great choice!
Best Red Volleyball Shoes
If your team colors are red, you’re in luck. You’re completely spoiled for choice with some of the absolute best volleyball shoes of all time coming in this colorway!
Asics Sky Elite FF Tokyo
In my opinion, this is the greatest volleyball shoe ever created by a pretty big margin. Check out my full review here.
Adidas Dame 7 Extply
One of my top basketball shoes for volleyball, I’ve been playing volleyball in Dame 7s for years and they are absolutely amazing. One of the best cushions out there for opposites and middles.
Best Black & Red Volleyball Shoes
One of the more popular team colors, the black and red volleyball shoes appear to have gone out of style in recent years. But there will usually always be some old Mizunos you can rely on!
Best Red & White Volleyball Shoes
Asics have come through with the goods if your team colors are red and white! You’re spoiled for choice between extreme versatility or top of the line volleyball shoes!
Best Blue Volleyball Shoes
There’s a decent amount of quality blue volleyball shoes to choose from on this list. Make sure you read the descriptions as there’s a couple on this list I would rather not recommend!
Best Navy Blue Volleyball Shoes
If you’re looking for a slightly more subtle blue, the navy colorway is quite well represented with some solid kicks.
Mizuno Wave Momentum
The is the single best Mizuno shoe for anyone doing a high volume of jumping each week. It’s super lightweight and has really excellent shock absorption so it’ll save your knees!
Best Light Blue Volleyball Shoes
If you’re looking for baby blue or sky blue volleyball shoes, there’s some pretty decent options available!
Asics Netburner Ballistic FF
The Netburner Ballistic is one of Asics top volleyball shoes – I rank them as the second best Asics volleyball shoes for their exceptional cushioning for athletes who jump a lot.
Blue & White Volleyball Shoes
I want to point out that the Gel-Dedicate 7 is actually a tennis shoe, so it’s not the greatest option for volleyballers doing lots of jumping… Although the other Asics on this list are really solid volleyball shoes!
Best Neon/Bright Volleyball Shoes
Bit of a mixed bag with the bright colored volleyball shoes… Most of these are court shoes with fairly average cushioning, so hitters should proceed with caution!
Asics Gel-Rocket 10
I guess this qualifies as neon, right? The Gel-Rocket 10s are the most versatile volleyball shoe on the market, great for outdoors use and even work fine for grass volleyball!
Best Yellow Volleyball Shoes
If yellow is your thing, you’ve got a couple of decent options available, each catering to very different player types.
Best Black & Gold Volleyball Shoes
Unfortunately there isn’t much in the way of black and gold volleyball shoes on today’s market.
Asics Gel-Rocket 10
Trust the Gel-Rockets to come through with the goods! Fun fact, these are the shoes worn by Karasuno setter, Tobio Kageyama in the Haikyuu volleyball anime!
Best White & Gold Volleyball Shoes
I personally think the white and gold colorway is one of the most stylish designs out there and I have no idea why more shoes don’t come in these colors!
Closing Remarks
I want to reiterate the fact that a number of these shoes aren’t ideal for volleyball, but at least each of them will be fairly safe to play in.
On the other hand, many of them are really excellent volleyball shoes which I hope I’ve made quite clear in the descriptions!
Also, if you’re looking for white and black volleyball shoes, be sure to check out these articles as well.
I understand it’s frustrating often not being able to find the perfect colorways or shoes that match your team colors…
Unfortunately this is the world we live in currently, but hopefully there’s enough ideas on this list that you can find something you like the look of!
