Loading... Please wait...When the International Basketball Federation had to decide which ball is worthy enough to be handled by the best basketball players in the world, the choice was clear. Molten GL7 Official FIBA Olympic Leather Indoor Basketball is completely designed to handle world class play. Its top grain leather cover and flat pebble surface is built to specifically to meet the performance demands of the players participating in the 2008 Beijing Summer Olympics.
As with any genuine leather sports equipment, when you first get it, it will feel stiff, even slippery and hard to handle. This is a genuine leather basketball and must be broken in just like leather baseball gloves or leather volleyballs. The amount of time it takes to break in the ball will depend on how often you use it. Again, all leather sports balls are for Indoor use ONLY.
