It's a great ball to play with. Been using it for more than a year. Here's a story for you:

So we played with this ball during our flag football game. We dominated. I had 3 TD passes, etc etc. I was so happy that I forgot to put it in the trunk of my car as we were leaving. I left it on the ground. Next thing you know, as I'm backing up, I hear a big thump and felt like I ran something over. I was like OH CRAP WHAT WAS THAT! I pull over, and a friend of mine goes to take a look. As he gets out of the car, I realize it's probably my football (this one)! I was like oh man that thing had to have blown up. He comes back. It's fully in-tact and it looks like nothing ever happened to it. This thing stayed perfectly shaped and everything after a 2 ton car ran over it. End of story.

Durable? Yes.

I got this for a 10 year old that is average size for his age. It is good quality and should provide for some great back yard football. As an adult I would not mind having one myself because it is easier to get my hands around to throw and catch.

I bought 6 of these for our middle school and the kids love them. Most popular ball in the rack!

This is a great looking football. The grip is amazing on this ball too. Also remember however that this ball is OFFICIAL SIZE. So it could be a little too big for some people.

I purchased this for my grandson for Christmas. The tackified surface really helps you get a grip on this ball. Thought it would be a good product for him to learn how to throw a football. Will not prepare for the slick feel of an official leather football, but good to learn the basic fundamentals of slinging the pigskin.

I've had this ball for over 5 years now, and my guy friends and I always use it for pick up tackles and 2 hand touch games whenever we're back from college or over the summer. It's held up great. I haven't pumped it one time since; it's held the air that well with the bladder.

The grip is not super super tacky like some of those nike footballs, but more than adequate. I actually prefer the more realistic grip of this ball. It's also pleasing to catch. great unbeatable price!

This is a great football. I ordered it on Tuesday and it came on saturday. When I got it the football was in a box with a "free" tee and pump and a needle for the pump. You do not need to buy a pump for this football. The leather feels great and it is the perfect size, not to small and not to big.

I have played QB my whole life, this is a great ball to throw. I is easy to throw, nice grip on surface as well as laces. Easy to catch, easy to see in the air with the bold white strips. I bought several of these for practice ball and everyone grabs them up first. Wonderful ball for the money!!!

When I received this ball at home (in France), I was really happy. This ball is great, we can easily catch it.
I would like to recommend it for anyone who seeks an American football :) enjoy

(I'm sorry for my English ^^)

I bought this thinking it was the normal sized one but when they write junior, they really mean junior. Great ball for kids though.
