easy to throw and catch football.
Leather footballs are the highest
grade footballs and are typically used in game and practice play.
Many of the leather footballs are made with a tanning process that makes
the ball tacky, so it is easier to grip, particular when wet. Some
leather footballs are also made to resist absorbing moisture, so they can
be used in all weather conditions. Leather footballs that are not
specified as water proof or water resistant should not be used in wet
conditions as the ball can absorb water becoming heavier and harder to
grip. Leather footballs are only intended for use on grass or turf
surfaces.
Composite or composite leather
footballs are made from synthetic leather. These balls tend to cost
less than leather footballs. Composite footballs may be used in game
or practice situations and are great recreational use footballs.
Composite footballs look and feel like leather, and tend to resist
moisture better than leather and often are easier to grip than real
leather because the composite material usually has more texture.
Some composite leather balls have enhanced the grip of the ball even more
by making the cover tacky and/or softer. Composite leather footballs
tend to be more durable than leather footballs, however, like leather
footballs, these balls are generally intended for use on grass or turf
surfaces.
Rubber Footballs typically have
durable, easy to grip, waterproof rubber covers with rubber
molded laces. The rubber football is excellent for recreational use
in all weather conditions and on all surfaces.
