FAQs
Is this a size 5 ball?
Yes, this specific model is a standard Size 5 football, which is the international regulation size for players aged 12 and older.
Can I use this on concrete?
While the Glider is designed for all-surface durability, concrete is highly abrasive. Using it on softer grass or artificial turf will significantly extend the life of the stitching.
Does it come inflated?
For shipping safety, balls are typically shipped deflated or partially deflated. You will need a ball pump to reach the desired pressure.
What is the benefit of a butyl bladder?
A butyl bladder provides superior air retention compared to latex bladders, meaning the ball stays inflated much longer between uses.
Is this ball waterproof?
It is water-resistant, but prolonged exposure to heavy rain or soaking in water can eventually lead to moisture absorption through the stitching.
Troubleshooting
The ball loses air quickly.
Ensure the valve was not damaged during inflation. Check that the inflation needle was not inserted at an angle, and consider applying a tiny amount of moisture to the valve.
The ball feels too hard or 'bouncy'.
You may have over-inflated the ball. Gently release air by re-inserting the pump needle without the pump attached to bring the pressure down to a comfortable level.
Surface dirt is affecting the grip.
Wipe the surface with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes which can damage the outer material.
Pros and Cons

- Single size (5) limitation

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare your football for play, inflate the ball using a standard ball pump with a needle attachment. Ensure the needle is lubricated with a drop of silicone oil or water before insertion to protect the valve. Do not over-inflate, as this can strain the internal bladder and affect the ball's shape. To maximize the lifespan of your adidas Glider, store the ball in a cool, dry place out of direct sunlight when not in use. After playing on wet or muddy surfaces, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and allow it to air dry naturally. Avoid sitting on the ball or using it for purposes other than soccer, as this can degrade the panel stitching.
