Yardball makes a distinctive leather ball designed for easy, spontaneous catch without a glove. Hand-stitched in Kansas City from Wickett & Craig harness leather, each ball combines a wool core with soft, broken-in leather for a comfortable feel from the first throw. It is larger than a baseball, smaller than a softball, and weighs four ounces: firm enough to throw, yet soft enough to catch with a bare hand.

The brand offers Yardballs in a range of leather colors and thread options, alongside limited-run designs featuring playful themes and distinctive details. Customers can also explore collegiate and second-quality selections, accessories, and Yardlab custom-branded balls for organizations and gifting. Yardball presents its product as more than sports equipment: it can be used for backyard games, tailgates, casual play, or as a desk-side fidget. The idea grew from tossing a ball of painter’s tape, with the aim of creating a durable version that encourages people to unplug, connect, and have a catch wherever they are.
