Introducing Chaim Schalk

Introducing Chaim Schalk

Navas is pleased to add beach volleyball Olympian Chaim Schalk to the Navas family!


A native of Red Deer, AB, Chaim has been obsessed with volleyball since he was a boy. He represented Canada at the Rio 2016 Olympics where he and partner Ben Saxton finished 9th. Chaim debuted with the AVP in 2017. Most recently Chaim was crowned AVP Seattle Champion this past June. 

“As a 6’5 athlete I am always struggling to find comfortable clothing that fits me through intense activity and day to day life.  Navas has been really great for me and I particularly love the comfort, design, and care put into the clothing.  On top of those things the sustainability of the brand is very attractive to me.  I am really excited to be teaming up with Navas."

A fellow Canadian and West Coaster, Chaim has endured many of the fit issues that plague tall athletic guys everywhere and was stoked to get some Navas shorts and hoodies to wear recently. Chaim was wearing the Navas Zod short this past weekend at AVP Chicago.

Chaim will be competing at the AVP Hawaii Open on Sept 20-22 on Waikiki.

We are excited to help him achieve his future goals! We look forward to seeing a lot more of Chaim!
