Spalding

The Spalding brand was founded in 1876 by the Boston Red Sox pitcher A.G. Spalding and is currently known as one of the best sporting goods brands in the world, especially for basketball gear. The brand has accumulated many milestones and made history, including the fact that it created the first American football and the world’s first basketball. With such a storied history filled with innovation, it’s no wonder that the brand continues to be on the top of its sporting goods game today.

The Spalding brand still makes a variety of sports gear, from the balls used to play various sports to equipment like baseball gloves, nets, bats, and much more. They also make history with their products. The Spalding 2020 NBA Finals Game Ball, for example, is a classic orange basketball that was used as the ball for the 2020 NBA Finals. The brand also makes sports memorabilia to honor legendary players. The Spalding Kobe Bryant "Hall of Fame" Basketball is an example of this. The gold basketball features a photo of Bryant on one of its sections, and its snake logo is gold to honor the legendary LA Lakers player.

The Spalding brand is loved by athletes and sports fans nationwide. If you are looking to get out on the court yourself, and you need some apparel, check out the Nike brand collection on StockX.
