These stylish drinking coasters are ideal for sports fans looking to bring an aspect of their favorite games into their home decor thanks to the repurposed material sourced from leather basketballs and footballs. The fabric is used to create the drinking placemats and give them a dapper aesthetic that subtly references the game.
The NBA Basketball and NFL Football Leather Coasters are both made from the subtle and sticky cowhide used in the making of the balls for pro sport games. The leather for the coasters is sourced from the same Horween tannery located in Chicago the NBA and NFL use to create their sporting goods. The leather is cut into elegant rounds and treated with the necessary chemicals to render the leather water-resistant to drink condensation.
