Rome, 27 January (LaPresse) – Puma and Lega Calcio Serie A unveil the new Pum Orbita Serie A Enilive 2026, the official ball (with white as the dominant colour) that will accompany the final and decisive part of the Serie A Enilive season, the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa and the Primavera 1 competitions. The new ball replaces the orange ‘Puma Orbita Hi-Vis,’ which was chosen with the aim of making the ball always visible to players and spectators and debuted on the 12th day of Serie A, but which has been criticised because ‘there are people who cannot see it due to colour blindness,’ as stated at the end of December by the president of the Serie A League, Ezio Maria Simonelli, stated at the end of December. The graphic design of the new ball is inspired by the screen printing of Bruno Munari, an artist who was able to combine mathematical theory and expressive freedom, breaking with the rigidity of traditional forms. The lines, colours and patterns evoke an organic and seemingly random aesthetic, in perfect harmony with Munari's ethic of art born from natural formation. The result is a ball that also becomes a visual work of art, capable of telling a story in which art and sport interact in an authentic and contemporary way. In addition to its strong aesthetic identity, the new Puma Orbita is manufactured to the highest technological standards to ensure excellent performance on the pitch. Every detail is designed to ensure precision in passing, stable trajectories and optimal control, improving the playing experience for players and offering the public an even more engaging spectacle. The design is not just decorative, but an integral part of performance. The Puma Orbita Serie A Fifa Quality Pro uses cutting-edge technology that allows the ball to maintain its perfect shape and reduce water absorption. The addition of POE foam increases touch sensitivity, offering a more solid feel and better bounce consistency. The 1.2 mm textured 3D PU surface improves aerodynamics and makes the ball more resistant to abrasion and wear, increasing its durability. The structure is completed by a rubber bladder and PAL (Puma Air Lock) valve, which ensure excellent air retention and optimal bounce. The new Puma Orbita Serie A Enilive 2026 match ball is available on Puma.com and at selected retailers.
