GST Leather Game Football - Official

I made my purchase in March of 2025. I must say the overall quality of this product far exceeded my expectations. Amazing grip and feel. The only issue I have is in the durability of the product. After owning and using for about 3 months it went flat out of nowhere. No visible rips, tears, or puncture wounds. Other than that a great product I would definitely recommend to others.

I got this for my grandson. He said that it was all he could possibly want and more. I think he was happy with the football. It is expensive, but we tried cheaper ones first. "You get what you pay for" comes to mind.

If you have a high school football player in your household, this is the ball to buy. Don't waste your money on cheap balls from Walmart. These are competition-worthy balls.

I’ve been using the Wilson GST football for several months now, and it has quickly become my favorite. The grip is outstanding, thanks to the patented sewn-on stripes and the Accurate Control Lacing (ACL). These features make a noticeable difference in both throwing and catching, even in less-than-ideal weather conditions. The leather is soft yet durable, offering a great feel without being overly slick. Whether you’re practicing drills or playing in a game, this football provides excellent control and consistency.

Attempted to use this ball less than a handful of times since purchase as it will NOT remain inflated. Two balls were purchased together, one is serviceable while the other is trash. Over $100 product unusable. Looking for a replacement option.

I'm sure it's a great football performance wise but I wasn't able to throw it even once. Me and some guys on my flag football team pitched in to buy our friend a nice football for his birthday, we wanted to get it rushed delivery so we could throw with it on Sunday. We paid $82.55 (including tax + one day shipping). The white stitched leather on both sides isn't symmetrical by a noticeable amount. Also the football was over pumped. For a football that costs close to three times as much as a normal football (around $30 or so) I expect some sort of quality control to occur. This is completely unacceptable and very disappointing we couldn't give it to him on his birthday to throw around. And yeah I know, some people might think I should just deal with it... but do you really want to give your friend something that looks like crap? What does that say about you? I'm going to return this. I might just go to Dick's next time to verify I'm not getting a reject football. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EDIT: I returned the football and they sent me one that isn't a reject- it's great. I was throwing tight spirals and it's easy to snag coming at you. Fun football to throw, I'm a fan. I could see that over time the stickiness will start coming off, some other commenters said they use a brush and oil to condition the leather. I might have to try that.

I've always loved the feel and weight of a true authentic football. I saw Ohio State using these in their bowl games against Alabama and Oregon and had to have one. There's many things I absolutely love about this ball. I'll start with the pros...The feel of an authentic "Game ball" is second to none. While it takes a little bit of time and some elbow grease to shed this ball of its protective layer, nothing feels better. What I like about this football that I've not found on any other ball are the stitched on stripes that have taken the place of the standard painted on stripes. Besides never having to worry about the paint wearing off, these stripes of made of a synthetic tacky material that the ball easy to handle, catch and throw. This is a big football. So for people with smaller hands that have a hard time gripping it thesea come in handy. The graphics on a high end ball are always branded and embossed on the ball instead of stamped. While it's irrelevant to the actual performance of the ball, it justifies the price you pay. The only con I can come up with would be the synthetic lacing system. While it states on the description of the ball that the synthetic laces give the thrower better command of the football, I've noticed it's taken a lot longer to get that slippery feeling off the laces than it did the football itself. This ball needs to be broken in thoroughly through use before a true review can be done, but to get a little piece of the college game at an affordable price, this ball is top of the line! You can't beat it.
