Good outdoor ball

Can anyone recommend a good basketball to use on outdoor courts? The grip just seems to wear off these too quick leaving the ball slippery and with no grip.
Just need something where the grip will last for a decent amount of time.

I bought a NBA (spalding) indoor/ outdoor one for $40 in europe. The synthetic leather on it feels better than the actual NBA game ones and still feels nice and soft/ grippy after a fair bit of use.

Not sure if anyone stocks them over here

It's a constant battle to find a good outdoor ball that 1) lasts and 2) doesn't start to feel like crap after a bit of use.
Add my vote for the Spalding "NBA Game Ball Series Indoor/Outdoor". Best option I have come across. Got mine from Rebel Sport. Can't remember what I paid but it wasn't cheap.

Molten balls are good for outdoor. Good quality and last a fair while.
