My take on the "Football Strap"

Ok, so I am not a huge fan of American Football. I don't understand how a contact sport can be played with all that equiptment on. I myself am a rugby player. Give me electrical tape over a helmet any day of the week. Anyway, after seeing some pictures of "football straps," I decided to make my own. Now bear in mind that this is not your traditional brown pig skin.

What we have here is a very nice Gilbert XT400 all weather Rugby Ball. My buddy suggested trying to make one out of one of my spare balls. I decided to use the one that had the least wear on it. I am actually quite happy with how it turned out.

The top is rubber, the underside is suede. It is remarkably comfortable.
