NEW BEDFORD, Mass.,
October 14, 2009 - AHEAD continues to play to the strength of its
popular brand with the launch of the Spring 2010 men's Authentics
apparel line. The entire line features high-performance fabrics, casual
and contemporary styles at a great value. AHEAD's Spring 2010 line
offers new additions in the Eco-Friendly, Quick Dry Performance and Dri-Balance
collections.
"Our apparel business continues to remain strong," said Jeff Waller,
director of sales, AHEAD. "I credit it to first, knowing our customer
and what they are looking for, and then combining that knowledge with
outstanding quality, superior ornamentation all at a value. The spring
2010 line is a reflection of this philosophy with performance fabrics
used in the Eco-Friendly, Quick Dry and Dri-Balance collections,
complemented by great styles and colors for the season."
Highlights Of Men's Spring 2010
Dri-Balance Collection:
AHEAD has added another affordable classic luxury mercerized Dri-Balance
polo to its award-winning Hybridwear line.
• The Mercerized Dri-Balance Jersey Solid Polo (Style PL77) is the
perfect combination of performance and comfort. Made from 70 percent
Egyptian cotton and 30 percent polyester, this 60's 2-ply double
mercerized piece has been incorporated with the moisture wicking
capabilities to keep you cool and dry. The polo comes in six colors -
ruby, pine, greystone, mineral, white and onyx. Available Dec. 1, 2009,
the suggested retail is $69. Sizes S-XXL.
"The functionality of the line combined with fashionable styles creates
apparel any golfer would love to wear," said Tina Schipper, senior
buyer, Broadmoor Resort and Spa, Broadmoor, Colo. "The tradition of
great quality is passed down from AHEAD's headwear into both the men's
Authentics and Kate Lord apparel and accessory lines."
Eco-Friendly Collection:
AHEAD continues to Go Green with the expansion of its Eco-Friendly
collection made of innovative fabrications like organic cotton, bamboo
and coconut bi-products. A big benefit of this line is that the fabric
blocks out UV rays that equate to an Ultraviolet Protection Factor
(UPF) of 50+. AHEAD staff professional Retief Goosen is a big fan of
the Eco-Friendly collection and wears it weekly on tour.
