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 a real contender. For my purposes of having a cheap ball to kick around a few times a month this one is ideal. For those who play football in a somewhat more serious manner, then it may well be worth spending an extra £5-£10 and getting a slightly better model.
