Meet the Brazuca, the official match ball of the 2014 FIFA World Cup in Brazil.

adidas officially unveiled the ball after images leaked in November, revealing the revolutionary design. Six “propeller” shaped panels make up the innovative soccer ball, featuring an improved surface designed to enhance grip, touch stability and flight. The spirited design was inspired by the traditional Brazilian wish bracelets and the vibrant style of the host county.

The Brazuca is available today at adidas Soccer.
