The mitre pro max football is a professional, high quality, high gloss matchball, developed with top professional clubs and engineered to mitre and international match ball standards. Maximum performance is achieved from balanced linings and an exclusive 'maxloc' bladder system, designed to maintain pressure for 3 times longer than a conventional bladder. The soft touch surface allows for maximum player control. The ball is manufactured as a 26 Panel design, maximised for shape retention and truer flight, available as a size 5 only in a standard white, mitre design.
Mitre provides a whole range of balls at with various levels of performance and according price. However, as a buyer of equipment for my club, I can highly recommend this ball above all of the other ones for a similar price. It provides a consistent level of performance, great accuracy, shape retention, speed and control and is suitable for all natural and artificial surfaces and climatic conditions. The one thing that has really impressed me with this ball is the valve durability and length of time that the ball stays inflated. It is advertised as retaining maximum pressure for 3 times longer and on current observations, this is absolutely true!!
A careful search of the internet will enable you to purchase this ball at a price in the range of £30-£5 with certain sites providing discounts for bulk purchases. A cheeky little look on e-bay is always worth a try as bargains can often be found at the right time of year.
Personal preference is towards Mitre balls as they consistently provide a higher standard of ball, for the cost, than those provided by their competitors Nike, Adidas and Umbro etc..
The feel, weight, flight and aesthetics consistently meet up to expectations and this Pro-max ball will easily meet the requirements of most amateur and semi-professional football clubs. For those of you with a little more cash to burn, then the Mitre Ultimax (careful not to mix with the cheaper Ultimatch) is available. However, I find it very hard to see what further advantage the extra £20 will give you over the already excellent Pro-max.
