Mitre Impel

Bought it for the dog to chase, 2 year old bouncy labrador. He's put holes in the leather but still inflated and not punctured. Heavier than other balls when you boot it but over all for the price I can't fault it. Comes flat packed, just pump up and you're ready to go. 5 stars

Good for training, its a bit heavier and tougher than other balls, if you are used to more expensive and light footballs you will find it harder to get used to it but its good for basic training sessions, would not recommend it for a match ball

Ball for football

The Impel range are Mitre's lowest standard of foobball. That's not to say that they are terrible by any means, but there is a noticeable drop in quality in comparison to their Ultramatch and Delta range which makes sense considering the price difference.The mechanical stitching of the leather is the first thing that stands out. These balls aren't designed to last very long before beginning to peel. 2-3 months of regular use will see them fall apart.The ball is on the lighter/hollower side compared to something like the Delta. This can make the ball a bit harder to control and can also affect power and accuracy due to weaker wind resistance.Although the ball is round enough to roll fine on dry, trimmed surfaces. It isn't perfectly round and may be prone to getting caught up on tougher or wet surfaces.All and all, it's a cheap ball that's good enough for a kick around with mates and is perfectly serviceable for training sessions at an amateur team level.For more serious level training, you should be looking at the Delta range of balls which are put together better in every way using superior materials. Be prepared to pay considerably more however.

Bought for 9 y/o. Perfect size ball for this age group. Ball has lasted well so far with regular use, the only minor complaint being that the print wore off very quickly in places. Good value for the price.

My son is 14 and he loves this football for it's durability. It is still in perfect working order after 2 weeks. The ones he normally used to buy from high street like sondico ones barely lasted a week before exploding off.

My eldest grandson loved this, it's his football team colours so he was well happy with it. Decent quality, bright colour and the right size for his age. Recommend this quality product.

My grandson likes a kickabout in my garden after school. He called out to me "This ball is so good!".One happy chappy!
