My name is Mārtiņš Pļaviņš, and I am a professional beach volleyball player with years of experience in the sport. I have competed in three Olympic Games, winning a bronze medal at the 2012 London Olympics. My most recent achievement is winning the 2024 European Beach Volleyball Champ.

Throughout my 20+ year career, I have played in tournaments worldwide, facing all kinds of weather conditions. The right gear is essential for comfort and protection, allowing athletes to perform at their best, no matter the environment.

I decided to create a beach sock brand because my experience has given me unique insights into designing socks that meet the demands of beach volleyball. My goal was to achieve the highest level of comfort and protection. Beachsocks by Plavins are specifically adapted to the needs of beach volleyball players—I have personally tested them extensively and can vouch for their quality and comfort. These socks are perfect for both enthusiasts and professionals.
