A houndstooth body for the baby of a couple of volleyball players, a pair of sneakers for the big brother, a set of socks for the rest of the tribe: the Christmas gifts Hummel are perfect for family presents, from birth to adulthood.
Legacy T-shirts, padded jackets and sweatshirts complete this lifestyle selection from the Danish brand.
The Chevron socks kick things off, sold in packs of six pairs, in black, white, or mixed colours. They feature the signature pattern of the brand. A handy gift, to slip alongside a more significant present or to share between siblings.
The VM78 comes in many colours, from anthracite to red, including dusty blue or deep green, and the Monaco is available in a women's fit in pastel shades. The Actus, made from recycled mesh, rounds off the selection. These are city sneakers, to keep for the street.
The Legacy t-shirt, available in white, black, grey heather, or navy blue, displays the brand's logo. The sweatshirts and joggers on this page make for a Sunday outfit or a trip to the gym. The hmlCIMA and hmlOFFGRID ranges add other cuts for urban wear.
Hummel goes down to baby sizes, with plenty of bodysuits, and also offers dresses. The junior sizes take on the styles of the adults: handy for dressing both parents and children in the same vein.
The down jackets, including a women's version with a hood, can be worn over a sweatshirt for winter trips and matches watched from the stands. They conclude the list of warm pieces, along with waterproof jackets for rainy days.
Hummel means bumblebee in German. Founded in Hamburg, the brand later became Danish, and its chevrons run down the sleeves of its outfits as well as its socks. It is also a supplier of team sports gear, known for its indoor shoes as well.
For a Spezial or an Essentials sweatshirt, head to the lifestyle adidas. The leather trainers from Reebok and the Aztrek from Reebok Classics complete the selection, gathered on the page lifestyle for Christmas. The special lifestyle offers remain open all year round, and the lifestyle sales follow the festivities.
On this page, select the type of sneakers and then your gender. After the holidays, the special lifestyle offers will take over for the brand's trainers.
Baby sizes are indicated in months or centimetres: rely on the centimetres, which are more reliable than age. A bodysuit for three or six months will be worn for longer than a newborn size, which is quickly outgrown.
They can be worn daily as well as for a light session. For a volley match, a technical sock, thicker underfoot, provides better protection against friction.
Wash it on a delicate cycle, at a low temperature, with a gentle detergent, then dry it flat while shaking it from time to time to distribute the filling. A few tennis balls in the dryer, on a low temperature, will help restore its volume.
Wash them inside out, with white laundry only, and soak them before washing if they are very dirty. Avoid the tumble dryer, which wears out the elastic.
