Canterbury of New Zealand today announced that the 2005 US Open Champion, Michael Campbell, will endorse their revolutionary BaseLayer clothing.
Michael’s global tournament schedule takes him to both hot and humid, and cold and windy climates – making him the ideal sportsman to benefit from the unique BaseLayer technology.
Canterbury BaseLayer is available in two product lines: BaseLayer Cold garments, which insulate athletes in the coldest of climates; and BaseLayer Hot garments, which keep athletes cool in the hottest temperatures. Both products feature Canterbury’s innovative moisture transport system, which ‘wicks’ sweat away from the body, keeping the body lighter and cooler during high intensity training and performance. Designed to be worn close to the skin, Canterbury BaseLayer is skin-tight yet flexible, allowing full freedom of movement.
The Canterbury BaseLayer range also includes dedicated ‘compression’ garments. Canterbury Compression BaseLayer supports and promotes muscle alignment, which significantly prevents muscle fatigue from lactic acid build-up, helping quick recovery. These compression garments also aid blood circulation and improve proprioception.
"The BaseLayer is really comfortable, and is perfect for me as I travel the world playing golf", commented Campbell. "Depending on the weather, I wear the hot version to keep me cool in hot and humid conditions, and the cold range when playing in cooler weather, allowing me to wear fewer layers. Importantly it also allows me total freedom of movement during my swing, enabling me to focus 100% on my game."
Mostyn Thomas, Marketing Manager of Canterbury of New Zealand, is thrilled that Michael is a big fan of the BaseLayer product. "Our partnership with Michael is a unique association. As a Kiwi brand we extensively test our products in New Zealand where our sporting apparel needs to meet the demands of an incredibly challenging environment – from the subtropical North Island to the mountainous alpine conditions of the South Island"
