Rawlings Crossover Basketball

Yes, the Rawlings Crossover is designed for versatility. Its composite leather construction is durable enough for outdoor asphalt or concrete while maintaining the soft feel required for indoor hardwood play.

The deep, skived channels create more surface area for your fingers to grip the ball. This helps you maintain better control during dribbling, passing, and shooting, especially when you need a secure handle on the ball.

This ball is 28.5 inches in circumference, which is the standard size for women's professional and collegiate play, often referred to as a size 6 ball. It is slightly smaller than the standard 29.5-inch men's regulation ball.

Composite leather offers a much softer, more premium feel than standard rubber balls, which can feel stiff or plastic-like. It provides a more consistent bounce and a tackier grip right out of the box, making it a significant upgrade for serious practice or pickup games.

The ball features a durable rubber bladder specifically engineered for consistent air retention. While all basketballs require occasional top-offs depending on usage, this construction is built to minimize frequent deflation.
