Designer Paul Smith dropped the Signature Stripe Football just in time for the World Cup. The patterned leather is not actually made for “recreational use,” but footballer John Farnworth takes the design off the display in the launch video by Oliver Hadlee Pearch. Produced in a limited run of 250, the striped and chevron’d soccer ball has already sold out.
