The power of your hands, brought directly into your game.
TACHIKARA's finest indoor basketball creation.

POWER HANDS is TACHIKARA's premium indoor basketball model,
embodying the philosophy of "TADIKARA" — the power of the hands —
from which the brand takes its name.

Since its inception, TACHIKARA has placed the connection
between players and the basketball at the heart of its philosophy,
building its identity through street basketball and its surrounding culture.
At the same time, the brand has continuously pursued
higher standards of quality and performance,
creating basketballs that serve as essential tools for the game.

One of the most iconic results of this pursuit was WHITE HANDS,
a basketball developed specifically for streetball.
The "HANDS" name became a defining part of TACHIKARA's heritage,
representing the relationship between the ball and the player's hands.

And now,
POWER HANDS brings that philosophy into competitive basketball,
originally developed as a JBA-approved game ball.

While TACHIKARA established its presence
on the streets and playgrounds,
the brand also received countless requests from students
and competitive players who wanted to use
TACHIKARA basketballs in official games.

POWER HANDS was created as a direct response to those voices.
By delivering consistent handling and playability
from street courts to official competition,
it expands TACHIKARA's presence into competitive basketball.

Conventional JBA-approved basketballs have sometimes been criticized
for being slippery, lacking bounce, or being difficult to handle.
For younger and intermediate players in particular,
these characteristics can even become obstacles to improvement.

POWER HANDS was developed to challenge these conventions,
with the goal of creating a basketball that is easy to handle
and delivers a satisfying, enjoyable playing experience
for players of all levels.

The outer cover is crafted from premium microfiber synthetic leather
manufactured by TEIJIN CORDLEY®,
which TACHIKARA considers the highest-quality synthetic leather
for indoor basketball applications.
It provides exceptional grip and durability,
with reduced sensitivity to sweat and humidity,
maintaining consistent handling and ball control
even during extended periods of play.

For the original JBA-approved POWER HANDS model,
TACHIKARA collaborated with TEIJIN CORDLEY
to develop a specially formulated Hot Orange microfiber cover,
delivering a brighter, more fluorescent orange
while meeting the color requirements for JBA approval.
This distinctive color created a basketball
that was immediately recognizable as TACHIKARA.

Now, the Light Aqua edition introduces a new expression
of the POWER HANDS philosophy.

Retaining the same materials, construction, and performance
as the JBA-approved POWER HANDS model,
this edition explores greater freedom in color and design.

Featuring TACHIKARA's signature Light Aqua color,
it combines the performance of a competition-grade basketball
with the brand's distinctive identity rooted in street culture.
The result is a basketball that stands out unmistakably
as a TACHIKARA creation.

Inside, POWER HANDS features a sponge carcass construction
designed to provide flexibility and cushioning.
The ball settles comfortably into the hands when caught,
while delivering a natural, controllable bounce
that supports smooth transitions between dribbling,
passing, and shooting.

Its deep-pebbled channel construction features
wide, deep grooves with a textured surface,
enhancing fingertip traction and control.
This design helps maintain reliable grip,
even when the player's hands become sweaty,
supporting stability and precision throughout the game.

Grip. Bounce. Control.

POWER HANDS was created to support the power of the player's hands
and help unlock their full potential.
