Description
Overview
The Avaro Hypo Rugby Size 5 is built around grip in the wet: an ultra-grip outer of virgin rubber, poly-stitched and waterproof, with high-visibility graphics that stay non-slip when soaked. Under the outer sit a composite lining and a Hi-Tech bladder for longer air retention.
It is the Avaro house-brand ball in our rugby balls range, designed in NZ; compare it with the Fivestar Rugby Ball Size 5 if you are weighing up size 5 options.
