Bag Manufacturer Loads Latest Golf Creations with Distinctive Designs, Technology
ORLANDO, Fla. / PGA Merchandise Show Booth #2373 (January 25, 2007) – It is possible to play to golf’s tradition while paying homage to current trends. So says OGIO, the respected golf bag manufacturer known for pouring the latest gear technology and colorful style into its designs. This year, the Utah- based company is meeting the demand for streetwear fashion in golf with the introduction of new prints and patterns on its best-selling bags.
From edgy plaids and argyles to fashionable pinstripes, OGIO’s 2007 stand bag lineup is filled with trend-setting designs that blow past standard golf fare. The company also has poured its top-of-the- line technology into the bags, maximizing performance while keeping the bags as light and maneuverable as ever before.
Throughout the year, the company will release numbered, limited-edition styles for of some of its most popular bags, with a Grom in a Khaki-and-Indigo plaid kicking off the program. In Spring 2007, OGIO will release a Brown Pinstripe version of the Grom, with more styles to follow. In addition, OGIO’s 2007 release includes:
VISION SS / FLIGHT SS: The OGIO Vision SS – named last year’s "Editor’s Choice" by Golf Illustrated’s Baggy Awards – is designed to accommodate the revolutionary Shling carrying system. No less than six patented/patent pending innovations are poured into this bag that delivers clubs via the Woode Club Management System (which towers woods to one side of the bag; irons to the other) and full-length, three-way dividers. The Vision SS (MSRP: $269.00) or the more scaled down Flight SS (MSRP: $239.00) is available in bold combinations including Silver/Black and Fire/Black, or Juice/Black.
EDGE: OGIO’s first hybrid bag combines the best of a stand bag and a cart bag in one. In addition to offering supreme functionality with a Zipperless Ball Pocket, anti-twist TORQ strap, and nine storage pockets, the Edge receives high marks for style with its race-car-inspired lines and an intense palette. The Edge (MSRP: $219.00) is available in sleek Indigo with silver; Black/Juice; Black/Fire; and Petrol/Silver color duos.
GROM: The company’s top- selling bag of 2005 and 2006 is back again and re-engineered with a new, sleeker silhouette. Any on-course fashion now has a performance accessory to match thanks to OGIO’s masculine color blocked designs in Indigo/Khaki; Olive/Khaki; Fire/Silver; Black/Silver; or the "it" design for 2007 in Tweed Khaki. The Grom’s (MSRP:$179.00) popularity goes far beyond looks, courtesy of a Zipperless Ball Pocket, a TORQ stabilizing cart strap, walking-accessible bottle holster, and many other patented features.
OZONE: OGIO’s Ozone bag is out of this world with its new street-inspired designs. The bag’s Chiaro design is accented with big, argyle prints in contrasting colors, while even the more traditional colors including Black, Fire, and Olive "pop" with surprising translucent panels to give "light bag" new meaning. Fashion aside, the Ozone is walking- friendly at a light 4.2 lbs., but offers supersize performance with its walking-accessible water-bottle holster, ergonomically designed Crossbow Lite shoulder strap system, and seven pockets.
VAPORLITE: The 3.8 lb. Vaporlite performs on all fronts with a WodeLite top; full-length, three-way dividers; and a Crossbow Lite mesh shoulder strap system. Even at this weight, the bag packs in a walking-accessible water bottle holster and five pockets. The Vaporlite (M.S.R.P. $129.00) is available in Garnet/ Fire, White/Green, Flame/Khaki, Chiaro/Carolina and Black/Petrol.
STICKS: Not much compares to this small bag with loads of personality and performance to match. OGIO’s Sticks bag steps in at just 3.4 lbs. – about the weight of the human brain – and organizes like a genius with a 7-inch Woode top, three-ball neoprene Ball Silo for easy ball access, and three zippered pockets.
DIVA: Don’t let this bag’s girlish appearance fool you. Like any Diva, OGIO’s new women’s bag knows how to perform with the assistance of a 9" Woode organizing top, full-length three-way dividers, and eight protective pockets. The Diva (MSRP: $149.00) is available in Pink and Grape, with accents in complementary argyle and polka dot patterns.
