Strauss Official Basketball - Size: 7  (Standard, Pack of 1, Orange)

This basketball is made of butyl bladder type. Butyl bladders are a blend of synthetic elastomers. It is one of the key components that helps the ball hold air for a long. It is slightly heavier, but the new and improved version is built for durability and retains air for a longer period. The bladder contains a good amount of butyl content that easily keeps the ball higher to stay up.

The ball is made with a highly durable rubber moulded stitching type, covering to stand up to the rigours of outdoor basketball. This stitching type is specially designed for beginners and intermediates, which helps them to easily bounce the ball. The advantage is that the stitch doesn't come off easily.

This basketball is suitable for playing on the ground. The durable rubber bladder helps with maximum air retention to keep the ball bouncing month after month. This ball typically has a rougher surface that provides better grip in wet or icy conditions, making it more suited for outdoor play. The design of it is such that it allows the ball to bounce higher off the ground, giving it a greater advantage on hard surfaces like pavement or brick courts.
