Description
The Phantom occupies a unique position in our Match range. While the Striker, Eclipse, and Apex use traditional hand-stitched construction, the Phantom takes a different approach: combining the premium Korean PU cover material with modern hybrid machine-stitched construction and a TPE foam backing layer.
The result is a match ball that offers a distinct playing experience. The hybrid construction provides a smoother, more uniform surface than hand-stitching, which some players prefer for consistent passing and shooting. The TPE foam layer adds a cushioned feel that softens first touch and enhances ball control. And the thread-wound SR bladder with Taiwan Butyl valve delivers a lively, responsive bounce with guaranteed zero air leakage.
Like every ball in our range, the Phantom is seam-sealed as standard, ensuring all-weather reliability on even the wettest British pitches. It passes FIFA Quality testing, confirming its performance across weight, circumference, sphericity, rebound, pressure loss, and water absorption.
The Phantom is the ideal choice for clubs who want Korean PU match quality with the added benefits of hybrid construction and foam cushioning — or as a cost-effective alternative to our hand-stitched Match balls.
