Footballs > Umbro Footballs

Not the best of recent of footballs

Advantages: Better leather than previous Umbro balls.
Disadvantages: slow punctures,goes flat quick.

...that this new ball by Umbro to be a bit of a let down once again. The problem with all umbro balls is they are very prone to slow punctures,and once again it hasn't let me down . Within two weeks along comes another puncture. It doesnt seem to matter how expensive the ball, although with Umbro they never seem to have very expensive footballs in the first place you just cant get much usage out of them. For some bicular reason I think they cut corners ...
...be an ongoing problem with Umbro and there football and because of this I needed to buy a new football once a again. Dont get me wrong I wont ever stop coming back and buying a new Umbro ball, probably because they are relativley cheap. And maybe because of this reason you get what you pay for. ...

Review of Umbro Dynamis Direct Football

Outstanding, an absolute must, Mitre Revolve Footballs

Advantages: Perfect weight and power
Disadvantages: Design and durability

...am a fan of the Mitre V's that have been on their range of footballs since 19forever. But this does not matter a single bit, as when you come to play with the ball you don't need to admise the design, you simply 'feel' it. They are however unfortunately not particularly durable. Granted they are not supposed to be used on concrete, but the slightest usee can tear the synthetic coating. Nothing too damaging, but irritating non the less. As a keeper, ...
...have the lacquer like coating that most matchballs have, meaning it doesn't stick to gloves like some others do. However, it is a dream to distribute, either by hand or foot. I even dabbled with this ball out of goal. If I can pick out the top corner from 20 yards with this ball then I guarantee that you can! ...

Review of Mitre Revolve Football League Football

Mitre Malmo Training Football Review

Advantages: Very cheap, good value for money.
Disadvantages: Heavier and not as well made as some of the newer balls.

The version of this ball that I have is the Orange Malmo, Size 5, so opinions are based on this ball, I cannot vouch for any of the other sizes/colours. I bought it from Newitts for about £5.50 inc P & P. The ball seems fairly durable, though the stitching is more exposed than on a lot of the more expensive new footballs, so I would guess that after a while of playing in the wet the stitching would become weak, though have not subjected it to water ...
...a reason why this ball couldn't last for quite a few years. The ball feels fairly heavy compared with some of the new Nike and Adidas balls, but this isn't necessarily a bad thing; it depends on your preferences. If you are looking for a cheap football to practice with and have a kick around with your mates, then I would say this ball is a real contender. For my purposes of having a cheap ball to kick around a few times a month this one is ideal. ...

Are you serious?

Review of Nike T90 Pitch Footballs

Room for improvement?

Advantages: Good for shooting and worth your money
Disadvantages: Not strong

I have got a T90 Strike myself however beware about its pads Don't rip them off because after 1 week of use some rubber comes undone just leave it as it is. however the quality of these footballs are extremely good but not a strong because of the stitching and pads Make sure you don't get scammed by a fake ball because then you are stuffed Sometimes you have to clean it for half an hour to make it look us-able again The best ones you can get are ...
