Material Introduction
WINIW, a leading supplier of outdoor sports materials, proudly introduces its Colorfast Microfiber Leather for Beach Basketball Surfaces—a specialized material designed to thrive in the harsh beach environment, combining exceptional color retention with sand-resistant durability and water repellency. This product solves a critical challenge for beach sports brands: ordinary basketball materials fade rapidly under intense sunlight, absorb sand particles, and lose performance in saltwater, while this microfiber leather maintains its vibrant appearance and functionality for seasons.
Crafted with WINIW’s advanced colorfast technology, this microfiber leather is dyed with UV-stable pigments that resist fading by 98% even after 1,000+ hours of direct sunlight exposure—outperforming standard synthetic leathers by 55% in color retention tests. Its dense microfiber structure creates a non-porous surface that repels sand particles, preventing abrasion and maintaining a smooth, grippy feel for ball control. The material is also infused with hydrophobic agents that repel saltwater and beach moisture, avoiding waterlogging and weight gain that plague traditional beach basketballs.
Suitable for beach basketball leagues, resort sports activities, and coastal recreational play, it caters to brands targeting outdoor enthusiasts and beach sports organizers. It supports customization of bright, eye-catching colors (turquoise, coral, sunny yellow), textures (matte, slightly pebbled), and thicknesses (1.4mm–1.8mm), aligning with beach sports’ vibrant aesthetic. For brands seeking a colorfast, sand-resistant material for beach basketball surfaces, WINIW’s microfiber leather sets a new standard for outdoor sports durability.


Material Feature
Infused with UV-stable pigments, this microfiber leather retains 98% of its original color even after 1,000+ hours of direct sunlight. It outperforms standard materials by 55% in colorfastness tests, ensuring beach basketballs stay vibrant and brand-recognizable for seasons.
The dense microfiber structure creates a non-porous surface that repels sand particles, preventing abrasion and maintaining a smooth, grippy feel. Unlike porous alternatives that trap sand and damage the ball’s surface, this material stays sand-free, ensuring consistent ball control on beach courts.
The hydrophobic coating repels saltwater, sweat, and beach moisture, avoiding waterlogging and weight gain. The ball remains lightweight and bouncy even after accidental submersion in saltwater, making it ideal for coastal and beach sports.


Application Scenarios
For professional beach basketball leagues, pebbled texture and 1.8mm thickness deliver maximum grip and durability. The sand-resistant surface ensures consistent ball control on sandy courts, while 98% color retention keeps team-branded balls vibrant for the entire season. Reflective accents can be added for evening games, enhancing player safety and visibility under beach lights.
For resort beach activities, matte texture and 1.4mm thickness optimize lightweight play and anti-glare performance. Bright, tropical colors (turquoise, coral) align with resort aesthetics, attracting tourists and recreational players. The saltwater-repellent feature ensures the ball stays usable even after accidental drops in the ocean, reducing replacement costs for resort sports facilities.
For youth beach basketball camps, 1.6mm thickness and soft pebbled texture minimize hand strain for kids. The colorfast material retains its playful, bright colors (neon pink, sunny yellow) even after weeks of outdoor camp use, appealing to young athletes. The sand-resistant surface prevents abrasion, ensuring the balls remain safe and playable for kids’ hands, while the water-repellent feature simplifies cleaning after beach play.

FAQ
Q1: Can we customize the texture and thickness for different beach basketball scenarios (e.g., matte for anti-glare vs. pebbled for extra grip)?
A1: Yes, we offer texture (matte/pebbled) and thickness (1.4mm–1.8mm) customization. Matte texture reduces glare under bright beach sun, while pebbled texture enhances grip on sandy courts. Thicker 1.8mm variants boost durability for competitive leagues, and 1.4mm options optimize lightweight play for casual use.
Q2: Will the colorfast properties fade or the material become brittle after long-term exposure to saltwater and sand?
A2: No, the UV-stable pigments and hydrophobic coating are integrated into the microfiber core. The material retains colorfastness and flexibility even after repeated contact with saltwater and sand, avoiding brittleness or discoloration.
Q3: Can we request custom bright colors and reflective accents for low-light beach games at dusk?
A3: Absolutely. We provide custom color matching for vibrant beach hues (turquoise, coral, yellow) and can add reflective strips to enhance visibility during dusk or nighttime beach games. The reflective accents do not compromise the material’s grip or colorfastness.
Q4: Is this material suitable for oversized beach basketballs and youth-sized models?
A4: Yes, the material’s flexibility and tear resistance adapt to all beach basketball sizes—from oversized recreational balls to youth training models. It maintains structural integrity and performance, whether used for casual beach play or competitive leagues.
