Material Introduction
WINIW, a trusted leader in high-performance synthetic leather solutions, proudly presents its Resistant To Fading Faux Leather tailored for PU leather basketballs. Designed to address the core challenge of color degradation from frequent use and exposure to light, this material combines advanced pigmentation technology with durable PU substrates. Unlike ordinary faux leathers that fade quickly under outdoor or indoor lighting, WINIW’s fading-resistant option retains vibrant hues even after repeated impacts, sweat contact, and long-term storage.
It balances flexibility and sturdiness, ensuring basketballs maintain their professional look and tactile feel throughout their lifecycle. Ideal for sports equipment manufacturers seeking reliable, low-maintenance materials, this product reflects WINIW’s commitment to merging functionality with aesthetic longevity, making it a top choice for brands aiming to deliver high-quality basketballs to athletes and enthusiasts worldwide.

Material Feature
- Long-Lasting Color Retention: The material’s anti-fading formula locks in color against UV rays, sweat, and impact, ensuring basketballs stay vibrant through extended use—no dulling or bleaching even after months of gameplay.
- Balanced Grip & Durability: It offers a genuine leather-like tactile feel for optimal player control, while its high-density structure resists scuffs and tears, keeping basketballs functional and visually intact.
- Temperature & Moisture Resistance: Unlike ordinary faux leathers, it maintains color and shape in varying temperatures (from hot outdoor courts to air-conditioned gyms) and repels moisture to avoid water-related discoloration.



Application Scenarios
- Professional Basketball Leagues: Leagues need balls that stay visually consistent across seasons. This fading-resistant leather ensures game balls retain team colors and logos, even with nightly use in arenas or outdoor events, maintaining a professional look.
- School & Youth Sports Programs: These programs often use basketballs for months (or years) of practice and games. The material’s color retention means balls don’t look worn out quickly, reducing the need for frequent replacements and saving budgets.
- Outdoor Basketball Courts & Parks: Public courts expose balls to sun, wind, and rough surfaces. This leather resists UV fading and scuffs, so community basketballs stay vibrant and functional, even with all-day, everyday use by players of all ages.

FAQ
Will the fading resistance hold up if the basketballs are used mostly outdoors?
Yes—this faux leather is engineered with UV and outdoor exposure in mind. It retains color even with regular outdoor use (e.g., sun, wind), so you won’t see dulling or bleaching over time.
Does the fading-resistant coating affect the leather’s grip?
No, the coating is designed to preserve both color and tactile feel. The material still has a genuine leather-like grip, so players maintain control during dribbling and shooting.
Can we add custom logos or prints to this fading-resistant leather?
Absolutely—prints and logos adhere well to the surface, and the fading resistance extends to the printed areas too, so your custom designs stay vibrant alongside the base color.
Is this material compatible with standard basketball production processes (e.g., panel bonding)?
Yes, it works seamlessly with common production steps like panel cutting, sewing, and bonding. Its flexibility ensures it conforms to basketball shapes without compromising fading resistance.
