Lifestyle and product blog Uncrate recently teamed up with luxe fashion brand Leather Head to create a dapper football design in honor of the upcoming Super Bowl. The football features an unconventional black colorway paired with supple and chic bison leather that is incredibly soft to the touch. The pairing of expert craftsmanship and sports brings the two seemingly unlikely worlds together using fashion.
Keeping to traditional football standards, the Leather Head x Uncrate Football offers a standardized shape and size quilted with rich aged bison leather that has creatively been dye black. The soft monochromatic leather is then paired with matching black laces to keep a uniformed and dapper look throughout the design of the sporting equipment.
