Hummel means "bumblebee" in German, and the chevrons that run down the sleeves have long been associated with Danish handball teams. The textile Hummel gathered here primarily serves multisport clubs: jerseys, shorts, sweatshirts, and team joggers, with a small line for basketball hmlCORE XK.
The Basketball filter isolates the on-court outfits.
Hummel primarily targets associations that want to dress all their members in the same outfit. The brand is mainly known in handball and football, and most items on this page are multisport: one jersey can be used on a handball, volleyball, or basketball court.
To be frank, the strictly basketball part is limited. It consists of a specific line, presented just below.
For basketball, Hummel offers the hmlCORE XK line, featuring sleeveless jerseys and loose shorts. There's a reversible version of the jersey, which is handy for training sessions where you switch teams by simply reversing your outfit. Sizes range from children to adults.
The Core 2.0 and Essential ranges provide everyday jerseys, t-shirts, and shorts. These are simple outfits made of lightweight polyester, easy to adapt to a club's colours. The hmlLEAD range adds jackets and training sweats with a more fitted cut.
For a coach ordering for a team, these ranges have the advantage of being available in men's, women's, and children's sizes in the same colours.
A large part of the page is about off-court wear. The Go 2.0 hoodies, polos, and joggers are perfect for travel, the bench, or the weekend. There are also dresses, leggings, and baby clothing, proving that the brand outfits the whole family of the club.
Several brands on the page Brands meet the same club needs. With adidas fabric, you can find jerseys from major European basketball clubs. The Spanish brand Joma offers reversible basketball sets, useful for training. The Italian brand Errea provides tank tops and basketball shorts in addition to its multisport teamwear. For a tight club budget, Erima and Macron round out the choices.
A club order is best prepared during a discount period. The Black Friday textile kicks off the end of the year, followed by Christmas textile. The sales come next. Orphaned sizes and discontinued colours, useful for completing a set of jerseys, can be found in the clearance.
Yes, as long as the jersey is made of technical fabric and allows for free arm movement. A short-sleeve jersey can be slightly restrictive for shooting, hence the appeal of a sleeveless model for basketball. For training, the difference is minimal.
It has two sides of different colours, sewn to be worn on both sides. During training, you just flip it inside out to change teams, without needing a bib. The number is often printed on both sides for club orders.
Hummel sizes follow European standards, but the fit varies from range to range: hmlLEAD is more fitted than Core 2.0. Compare the measurements from the size guide with an outfit you already wear. For group orders, have players try a test size before ordering the complete set.
Yes, women's jerseys and shorts have a fitted cut and an appropriate length. They come in the same colours as the men's models, allowing a mixed team to be dressed in a single colour.
It's simply the abbreviation for Hummel used in range names, like hmlCORE or hmlLEAD. It doesn't indicate a material or a range level. The name that follows refers to the line.
