This soccer ball is pretty much just what you'd expect. It's nothing special, but it certainly nice to use. The ball gets very dirty very easily with lots of scuff marks because of the material. It also does lose a little bit of air in between each use so I have to pump it up a bit. But for the price its about right, and certainly a solid soccer ball.

Very nice product. I bought it to gift it so did not use it myself but from what I can tell, it's an excellent quality product. Looked durable and well built.
Just one observation though. The nozzle where you pump in air through wasn't aligned very well and not sure if it will align or dislocate further once in use.
