If you don't live near a soccer field and you don't have a yard big enough to practice your footie skills, then you should consider the Calle Primero Street Soccer Ball. It's perfect for practicing your juggling skills or playing a pick up game of soccer in the street or in a parking lot. It has a durable rubber outer layer that is strong enough to withstand pavement or hard ground. Inside, it has a low bounce premium latex bladder that allows for a soft touch. The Calle Primero ball comes in five colors: black (pictured below), grass with yellow, red, teal, or gold.

The model I tried out was a size 4 (pictured above), so it was smaller than a standard sized soccer ball, but ideal for a pick up game with friends, especially if you have portable goals that are smaller than normal goals. I plan to start an after-hours game in the parking lot at my office. Or at the very least, use the Calle Primero ball to practice my ball skills in the driveway at home.
When you buy a Calle Primero Soccer Ball you also get a canvas bag with the intriguing name "Ball Sack" printed on the side. As is typically the case, the ball is shipped un-inflated, so be prepared to have a pump and needle on hand. "Calle" means "street" in Spanish, and the ball therefore features the iconic pigeon logo. Join the ranks of the callejeros and take the beautiful game to the streets!
