SLIGO WEAR UNVEILS FALL 2011 OUTERWEAR COLLECTION INFUSED WITH BOLD COLORS AND NEW PATTERNS
Sligo's Outerwear Offers Golfers Stylish Protection From Any Conditions Mother Nature Dishes Out
MISSISSAUGA, ONT — Sligo Wear, the Canada-based manufacturer and marketer of men’s trend-setting golf apparel, is set to unveil its fullest line of stylish performance outerwear to date. Infused with eye-catching color schemes and weather-tough materials, Sligo’s new outerwear offerings are a must for golfers who refuse to compromise their fashion-forward looks in cooler and adverse weather conditions, on and off the course.
The Sligo Wear Fall 2011 outerwear collection presents the trend-setting male golfer with a combination of weather-beating options that showcase the distinctive-patterning and bold colors for which Sligo has gained popularity. For the first time ever, Sligo offers golfers full protection from the elements with the Sligo Rain Jacket and Rain Pants. The new Sligo Rain Jacket boasts a waterproof, seam-sealed design for the ultimate in wet-weather protection. In addition, the Sligo Rain Jacket offers a full-zip enclosure system and an adjustable elastic cord for ensuring the proper fit and flexibility during the round. The new jacket design features dual side pockets to ensure that valuables remain safe and dry during the downpours and it is available in color choices of Black, Black Electric, City Blue, Metal and Smoke. Sligo's Rain Pants are crafted from the same waterproof materials as the jacket and feature a drawstring waist for easy on-and-off transitions during the round. The Sligo Rain Pants come in Black and coordinate well with any of the 5 Sligo Rain Jacket color choices ensuring that golfers stay stylish while staying dry. The Sligo Rain Jacket and Rain Pants each feature a retail price of $180.
In addition to Sligo's Rain Jacket and Pants, the Fall 2011 collection also boasts new options in fashion-forward pullovers consisting of four new unique designs - Matthews, Hoffland, Digitile Hoffland and Charleston, each uniquely crafted to ensure golfers' maximum fit and comfort. The uniquely styled Matthews quarter zip pullover is constructed of 100% brushed polyester providing a tremendously soft ‘hand’ and tailored fit that, together, allow golfers unmatched comfort and range of motion. The Matthews showcases a stylish cut & sew pattern on the front, back & arms and is available in stunning colors such as Black Electric, City Blue, Electric Blue, Metal, Smoke and Black. For golfers seeking a simpler, yet bold statement on the course, the Hoffland is an ideal choice. The design comes in solid colors of Metal, City Blue, and Black with the distinct Sligo logo on its left sleeve. With a stretch polyester pique fit, the pullover will form to golfers' every swing. Golfers can add some Moroccan flare to the Hoffland with the new Digitile version that comes in Black and Metal colors. The Digitile design enhances the sleeves to provide golfers with a uniquely confident presence on and off the course. For golfers that prefer more of a classic fleece look, check out the Charleston. The Charleston is a quarter zip 100% brushed polyester pullover that maintains a solid body color with a hint of a cohesive color expressed by a strip on the back. With this extraordinary range, Sligo now has a pullover tailored to every golfer’s style and at a price—$60-$90 per item—every golfer can afford.
"Cold and rainy weather on the golf course usually means golfers resort to frumpy, bulky uncomfortable clothing for warmth and protection from the elements," said Shawn Aucoin, Director of Sales – Sligo Wear. "Unfortunately, this type of gear typically results in poor swings and a less that flattering appearance as well. With Sligo's 2011 Fall outerwear selection, fashion forward golfers can beat the most severe of on-course weather, not sacrifice range of motion in their swing, and still look good doing it."
Complementing Sligo's selection of pullovers and rain gear, the new line offers the short-sleeve windshirt. The Sligo Windshirt is a stylish quarter-zip design made of technical woven polyester lycra with a breathable mesh lining for a comfortable golfing experience. In addition, the windshirt features Sligo's proprietary 4-Way Stretch fabric providing golfers with the flexibility to swing freely. The geometric color designs of the Sligo Windshirt mirror the Matthews’ look and feel and the color options of Black, City Blue, Electric Blue, Metal and Smoke coordinate seamlessly with the rest of the Fall 2011 collection. The Sligo Windshirt has a retail price of $65.
The 2011 Sligo Wear Fall Collection will be available at select golf specialty stores, premium on-course retailers and through the Sligo Wear online store beginning in August 2011.
