Main Material

This hybrid ball was created after observing soccer players in action.
This ball's hybrid design combines the comfort of a machine-stitched ball with the durability of a hand-sewn one (the seams are on the inside).
We've also used a special bladder (2 km [1 mi] of thread is wrapped around it) to ensure lasting inflation and better sphericity.

The story behind this ball

We developed a tool that allows us to measure the durability of our balls.
Any defects are identified and evaluated through a series of lab tests.
These tests are used to compare the overall durability of our soccer balls with others available on the market.
Our aim is to offer the most durable products on the market.

Prioritizing durability

This ball complies with official FIFA standards and weighs between 350 g and 390 g (12 and 14 oz.) in size 4.
FIFA Basic approved.

Too light? Too heavy? The weight is standardized.

This ball measures between 63.5 cm and 66.0 cm [25 and 26"] (size 4) and complies with official FIFA standards.
FIFA Basic approved.

How big is it? What’s the circumference?

Here’s how we test sphericity:
Average measured variation: 1.8% max (FIFA Basic standard).
We measure the ball’s sphericity at 4,500 different points and then examine any differences. 
If the discrepancy is greater than 1.8% (FIFA Basic standard), our engineers work on improving the sphericity to ensure a consistent bounce.

A round ball?

Here’s how we test pressure loss: We inflate the ball to the recommended pressure (11.6 psi).
The ball cannot lose more than 15% of its pressure over 72 hours, meaning a maximum pressure loss of 1.5 psi (FIFA Basic standard). The pressure after 72 hours must be approximately 10.1 psi.
This also means that it’s quite normal for a ball to lose pressure after a few days.

Maximum pressure loss test: here’s what we do.

Here’s how we test water absorption:
To simulate rainy playing conditions in a lab, we put the ball in 2 cm (1") of water on a pivoting support and subject it to 250 compressions.
At the end of testing, the ball must have absorbed no more than 15% of its weight (FIFA Basic certification).

We’ve also tested how much water the ball absorbs.

Here’s the bounce test: 
The ball is dropped onto a steel plate 10 times from a height of 2 m (2 yd).
The bounce height must be between 115 cm and 155 cm (45 and 61"), with a maximum difference of 10 cm (4") between its highest and lowest bounce.

It’s all about the bounce

The most rigorous test we put this ball through is the shooting machine test.
The ball must resist 2,500 shoots against a concrete slope at 50 km/h (30 mi/h) at a distance of 2.5 m (3 yd).
At the end of the test, we check:
- The ball’s general condition: Stitching must remain intact
- Circumference: Must not have varied by more than 1.5 cm (1/2")
- Sphericity: Must not have varied by more than 1.8%
Pressure: Pressure loss must not exceed 12.5%
