Youth #1 Cal Bears Volleyball 2026 Lightweight Fan Version Jersey - Navy
Quick answer: Cal Bears colours, fan version construction, made for young supporters, 2026.
The highlights
- Shoulder seam sits on the shoulder rather than halfway down the arm
- Wash-and-wear finish that keeps its colour at 30 degrees
Why the Cal Bears fan version sells
Most Cal Bears supporters want the colours, not the tighter athletic cut.
The volleyball build
For Cal Bears supporters, volleyball shirts are cut close and light, with a free armhole that allows a full range of movement overhead without the hem riding up.
Sized for the next generation
Across the Cal Bears range, small supporters are hard on shirts, so this one washes cold, dries fast and survives the playground as well as the stands.
Supporter build against match build
- Supporter build: knitted for comfort, graded for ordinary bodies.
- Match build: engineered for ninety minutes of contact.
- Cal Bears colours, crest and trim placement are identical on both.
Which version this is
What you are buying is the fan version cut, which is what most supporters actually want. Same look as the on-field shirt, softer hand-feel, roomier fit, and easier to live in week to week.
The grade runs true for young fans. Between two sizes, the larger one gives a relaxed fit and the smaller one sits close to the body.
