Custom Flop Ball Ordering Process
Our goal is a flawless Flop Ball order every time. Below are all the details you’ll need to make informed decisions regarding your order.
Fabric Color Selection
We offer a broad range of stock colors to choose from. Due to variation between production runs we can not guarantee color matching.
The top is the side where your logo is printed. The bottom has a 1/2" Flop Ball logo.
Logo Printing
The printable area for your logo is 2.75 inches round. However we recommend that you don’t try to do too much in that space.
The nice thing about the Flop Ball is its hand feel. Our material is carefully selected to be soft and joyous in the hand. Ink isn't joyous and if you put too much, it's slick too.
- Consider not covering more than 50% of the print area with ink.
- Dark ink on light fabric covers better than light ink on dark colors.
- If there is a color (say blue) in your logo and we’re printing on blue material, we will use the fabric instead of ink for that part of your logo if it is similar. Remember, the less ink the better for playability.
Logo File Types
We can work with any high resolution raster files (.jpg, .gif, .png) or vector graphic files (.eps, .svg, .pdf). More information about custom art here.
Material & Filling
Flop Balls are constructed from a special grade suede and are filled with the finest sand. Literally. Machine sewn, sand filled, and hand finished with an invisible stitch. We put a quality sack on your hand.
Packaging
Individual Flop Balls are packaged in zip lock bags and batched in bags of 25 or 50.
6-packs are packaged in a draw string bag of the same Flop Ball material. Custom printing is available to promote your event or sponsor.
Purchase Orders
We accept purchase orders.
Shipping
We ship Flop Balls via USPS medium and large Flat Rate Boxes. The boxes are unexpectedly heavy for their size. Use caution when picking up, remembering to lift with your legs. Also, store boxes on a sturdy table or floor.
Safety Information
Flop Balls are third party tested by an accredited laboratory and comply US Consumer Product Safety Commission ASTM F963-16 requirements for toys. Although Flop Balls are designed for ages 8+ they pass testing requirements for children ages 3 and up.
Production Timeline
We recommend 8-10 week lead time and always strive to fulfill orders as soon as possible. If you have an important quick turnaround, we can expedite some orders for an additional fee.
