The Ball Making Kit returns in a new Collector's Edition.

Created by Buenos Aires-based artist Malena Guerrieri in collaboration with SUDESTADA, this limited edition introduces curated color palettes, special leather remnants, and, for the first time, the option to create a Bespoke Ball with our team.

Each kit includes everything you need to assemble and hand stitch a fully functional N3 football using reclaimed Argentine leather sourced from the sample archives and production remnants of Malena's family tannery.

For this edition, we went back into the tannery archive to explore the football as a design object through color, material, and composition. Choose from four curated palettes, each bringing together different colors, textures, and references, or work with us to develop your own combination.

Only 90 Collector's Edition kits are available.

CHOOSE YOUR PALETTE

HERITAGE
Inspired by vintage footballs, worn leather, and the colors of the Argentine landscape. Earthy browns, mustard, beige, burgundy, black, and natural leather tones.

FIELD NOTES
Drawn from stadium grass, forests, rivers, and changing skies. Deep greens, olive, moss, navy, ocean blues, and grey.

STUDIO
A quieter palette focused on material, form, and craftsmanship. Black, white, grey, beige, and natural tones.

COLOR PLAY
Unexpected combinations and bold color contrasts inspired by art, fashion, and design. Pinks, oranges, reds, violets, blues, and greens.

Because we work with tannery remnants, exact colors, tones, and textures vary from kit to kit. Each palette follows its own visual direction, but no two balls will be exactly alike.

SPECIAL MATERIALS

Throughout the edition, selected kits may include unusual remnants discovered in the tannery archive, from embossed and textured leathers to metallic, glitter, and other special finishes. These materials are available in very limited quantities and may not be repeated.

BESPOKE BALL

For the first time, you can work directly with our team to develop your own color composition.

Choose your preferred colors and explore available leathers and special materials with us to create a ball that is entirely your own.

Bespoke Ball quantities are limited and subject to material availability.
