Introducing…. the 32 Bit Mesh. Our most complex ball yet.
180 hand-stitched polygons form an intricate mesh. A shape that’s easy to construct in a digital world, but much harder in our physical reality. An absurd way to construct a ball, really.
Look closer, and you’ll find a classic 32 panel ball ⚽️ hiding inside of it. The trick is to look for the cluster of triangles that combine to make a pentagon. Then you can adjust your eyes and reveal the 12 pentagons and 20 hexagons.
Only 1,000 made, individually numbered. Drops December 4th at 9am CST on 12p.com—ships in time for Christmas. Our last ball sold out in 4.5 hours, so don’t miss it! ⚽️✨
