(Denver, CO) August 2, 2006 – Since 1916 Imperial Headwear (Imperial) has been setting the trends with innovative decorations and high quality products. The introduction of Imperial’s HTâ?¢ (High Tech) Collection in January of 2006 has been received with rave reviews. So popular, that additional colors and new styles are being added to the new Summer 2006 Collection, launching in July.
Imperial’s HTâ?¢ (High Tech) Collection combines the industry’s most advanced technical performance fabrics with superior fit and quality. Designed for the active enthusiasts, HTâ?¢ (High Tech) products keep you cool, dry and comfortable with lightweight and breathable fabrics, a moisture control system, rapid dry technology, and odor blocker fabrics.
"Imperial continues its 90th year of leading the industry with our most advanced technical offering yet," said S. Garrett Stonehouse, chairman of Imperial Headwear. "We’ve pioneered true technical caps and visors into the outdoor and golf markets and continue to search for the next new performance offering that gives our customer’s the competitive advantage at retail and the consumers the added value of quality and performance, whatever activity they pursue."
Imperial is pleased to have renowned PGA athletes Brett and Dana Quigley as members of the Imperial Headwear team. The notable professional golfers, both of whom have long been fans of Imperial, endorse Imperial’s HTâ?¢ (High Tech) Collection. Watch for upcoming tour events where you’ll see Brett and Dana wearing their favorite HTâ?¢ styles.
New Imperial HTâ?¢ (High Tech) products, debuting in July, include The Dual Performance Cap that combines moisture wicking Tactelâ?¢ with Imperial’s exclusive CD-Xâ?¢ (Cool Dry-Extreme) fabric. Add a CoolMaxâ?¢ sweatband to wick away perspiration and you have the ultimate cap for your activity.
Another new style, featuring Imperial’s TB-Xâ?¢ (Total Balance-Extreme) fabric is designed for men that value comfort and performance. The ultra lightweight fabric has an odor control system that will remove harmful bacteria that cause odors.
