Dependable Durability and Grip

With the look and feel of a high-end NCAA game basketball, you can bring a March Madness feel to your own court. The ball’s composite cover absorbs moisture, making it easy for players of multiple levels to handle it on any type of surface. Laid-in channels replace traditional rubber with a pebbled composite leather, which improves grip. Cushion Core Technology combines low-density sponge rubber and a durable butyl bladder to provide long-lasting air retention for truer bounce and play. Use indoors and out.
