Football Trade-In FAQ

What kind of footballs do you accept?

We are only able to accept GENUINE leather footballs at this time, meaning we do not accept composite or rubber footballs.

Do you repurpose other sports balls?

We get asked this a lot! While we're always dabbling in R&D with other sports balls, we are committed to creating a high quality product for our customers out of football leather only.

At this time, no other sports ball has reached our standard of consistent quality and proper efficiency.

We have worked with numerous other sports teams (i.e. baseball, basketball, wrestling) and can cater to their needs even with our stock of football leather. For example, if you're a basketball team looking for hats, we can utilize the more red/orange colored football leather and it looks very consistent with what a basketball looks like.

Do I have to send you footballs in order make me hats?

No! We source footballs from all over the nation and have a wide stock of football leather on hand already so it is not required that you send us footballs in order to purchase hats, team hats, or beyond.

Will you make my hats from my retired footballs?

This is entirely up to you! If you'd like your hats to be made with your specific footballs, please let us know as soon as possible.
