(Markham, Ontario) – Trend-setting designer Ralph Dunning and his company, Dunning Golf, announce that staff players Zach Johnson, John Senden and Spencer Levin will showcase selections from the brand’s Fall 2007 collection during this week’s British Open Championship in Carnoustie, Scotland.
At a tournament sight known for its cool, wet weather, the players will rely on Dunning Golf’s unique luxury performance apparel system to protect them from the elements without excessive layering that can hinder a swing. In the event of wet conditions, Senden and Levin will compete in Dunning Golf’s revolutionary Tour Stretch outerwear line featuring "c_change" technology.
For his part, Johnson will rely on an apparel system similar to the one he championed at the 2007 Masters. This features the brand’s Interface Pro Compression Long Sleeve Mock, a distinctive technical polo and Interface Thermal Windshield Vest. These pieces work together to provide serious players unequaled breathability, muscle support, moisture wicking, wind-resistance and UV protection.
"Our Tour Stretch outerwear is truly unique in golf," says Dunning, the company founder and principal designer. "It’s a pure performance system with ‘c_change,’ a single-layer, water- and wind-proof membrane technology that adapts to temperature and humidity changes, offering a high level of breathability and comfort to the wearer."
The Tour Stretch line is available in jacket ($700), pant ($500) halfsleeve ($450) and vest ($300) options. Dunning Golf is sold at prestigious on-course shops throughout North America, such as Brentwood Country Club, Coppinwood Golf Club, Dallas National Golf Club, Hazeltine National Golf Club, Isleworth Country Club, Ritz Carlton (Jupiter, FL) Golf Club, Sherwood Country Club, Southern Highlands Golf Club, Trump National and Vaquero Club. The line is also available at Canada’s premier golf retailer, Golf Town.
Designed in consultation with the company’s elite PGA Tour staff, the Fall 2007 collection is in stores now and features a variety of distinctive polos, mock necks, shorts, pants, compression undergarments, pullovers, thermal tops and outerwear retailing from $35 to $150.
