2016 standard volleyball team uniforms (LINK)

It is not at all clear to me why "beach" volleyball uniforms would have to be different from these.

Clothing has many uses, one of which is to protect the skin from sun damage. This is why people in hot climates tend to wear long, loose clothes in the summertime. Think of the áo dài, the sari, etc: and the same goes for men: loose tunics, baggy pants.

There is a reasonable balance to be sought between the G-string and the burqa.

Hey, you’re on here making sense, too.

You’ll catch it for that.

He could have offended these actual uniforms from the games as a comparison but he seems more interested in the stiffing outfits of the Egyptian women because he thinks they are nice and neat and modest and you can play so well all wrapped up like a mummy. And that’s more important to him then to speak out about why they are wrapped up like mummies.
