a STAR is Born

Founded by Gian Maria and Patricia, STAR BEACHWEAR is a European-based company that has grown organically within the world of beach volleyball.

STAR has become a trusted provider of beachwear for major events like the FIVB World Tour, Queen and King of the Court, and numerous clubs and tournaments worldwide.

Patricia, a former professional beach volleyball player from the Netherlands, has a deep understanding of what athletes need, using her passion for the sport to shape the brand. Gian Maria, an Italian ex-professional basketball player, brings his expertise in sports, Italian design, and craftsmanship to ensure that STAR’s products meet the highest standards of quality and style.

In addition to creating custom beach volleyball apparel, STAR BEACHWEAR offers a full range of gear—from caps and tank tops to hoodies, leggings, shorts, sand socks, and ball bags—everything you need from head to toe.

What sets STAR apart is its patented Sand-Off system, designed to easily remove sand from hands and arms, keeping athletes clean and comfortable between plays. With a focus exclusively on beach volleyball, STAR is a leader in innovation and quality, setting the standard for beachwear in Europe.
