KENTFIELD, Calif. (August 9, 2006) – Fairway Skins Company, maker of a superior new line of high-fashion ladies’ golf gloves, has expanded its retail sales across the country, including both the east and west coast. Fairway Skins gloves now are available at Lady Golf in Rancho Mirage, Calif., and at Washington Golf Center in the Arlington, Va., location.
"An increasing number of retail shops are adding Fairway Skins gloves to their shelves," said Marje Helfet, CEO of Fairway Skins Company. "Female golfers are discovering them for their attractive look, ultrasoft feel and superior performance. And men are discovering what great gifts they make for the golfing women in their lives."
Made from the finest Cabretta* leather, Fairway Skins gloves feature colorful antique botanical prints which grace the back of each glove. Six different floral designs are available to complement any outfit: cereus, iris, lily, magnolia, poppy and strawberry. New designs will be added to the line seasonally. Beautifully packaged, the gloves are constructed to withstand sun, wind and rain. Distinctive for both their elegant designs and their high-performance attributes, Fairway Skins gloves are being welcomed by casual and serious golfers alike.
Karen Can’trell, president and CEO of Lady Golf, finds it a challenge to keep Fairway Skins gloves in stock, as they sell out quickly. In addition to brisk in-store sales of the gloves, she ships them to her customers worldwide.
"My clients love Fairway Skins gloves because they are different, chic, stylish and feminine," said Can’trell. "They also appreciate the gloves’ feel and high quality. I’ve ordered dozens at a time, and have had to keep reordering."
Can’trell also runs two California private club shops, Tamarisk Country Club in Palm Desert and The Springs Country Club in Rancho Mirage, where Fairway Skins gloves are sold to members and guests.
Fairway Skins gloves are available in select golf shops across the U.S. and on the company Web site, www.fairwayskins.com.
