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 to prove this. If looked after well I cannot see 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 ...
Advantages: Perfect weight and power Disadvantages: Design and durability
I'll get stuck in, I have honestly NEVER played with a ball anywhere near as good as this. I was lucky enough to be given one of the balls used in a recent Burton Albion game by a friend of mine who was one of the match officials.
They are outstanding. The ball is light, but still allows you to maintain direction without it seeming to float away from your intended target. I must admit, I don't think that they look particularly good, I myslef 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 ...
Advantages: GOOD SOLID BALL - STAYS IN THE AIR - BOUNCES WELL - TRUSTWORTHY BRAND Disadvantages: TAKES A WHILE TO PUMP UP - WOULDN'T RECOMMEND TO USE BARE FOOT
want to do with a football.
It is a very durable ball as I think we had about 15 balls in total in training and they used to get bashed against railings, plucked out of hedges, ran over the odd few times and still be able to use them for training.
Mitre is a great brand and have produced some great footballs over the years with hardly any competition until the past few years when Adidas, Reebok, Nike and other well known brands have been manufacturing footballs used in competitions like the Premiership, La Liga & The Champions League.
I'm not really sure what else I can write about as its a football - you kick it so you get the jist of how it works ha!
If you have any questions or anything you want to know about the ball feel free to comment and I'll update this review. ...
