It is considered unsporting to wear clothes the same color as the ball. Squash Rackets are 27 inches long. The old, wooden rackets have given way to ones made of graphite and polymers. As in racquetball, any non-marking court sneaker with a gum rubber sole will do. Also as in racquetball, protective eyewear is an essential.
Players usually wear white shorts and shirts.
It's not a fashion statement, but a tradition at many old-line clubs. Handball Gear is minimal. Handball gloves are similar to batting gloves, unpadded and usually made of leather, but you can play in gardening gloves if you like. Any court shoe will do, and again, protective eye wear is a must. The ball is made of rubber, is approximately 2 inches in diameter and weighs about 2 ounces.
