Expanded Line Rich in Quality, Cut, Fabric, Color and Detail
(Markham, Ontario) – Ralph Dunning – founder and principal designer of Dunning Golf – introduces his Spring 2008 collection of luxury performance apparel featuring more than 250 distinct pieces in 55 styles which work in concert to create the ultimate playing system for serious golfers.
Crafted in conjunction with Dunning Golf’s elite PGA Tour staff that includes John Senden and 2007 Masters champion Zach Johnson, the collection’s classic designs and sharp, clean athletic pieces draw from an exquisite palette of bright, traditional and muted colors. Items like the Interface Pique Winston Polo and Merino Wool Technical Pullover – a unique blend of merino wool, polyester and nylon with a rich look and soft hand – continue to expand the horizons of fabric technology in golf apparel.
"We provide the most discerning players with a luxurious, golf-specific performance apparel system that honors the game’s heritage as opposed to chasing trends," says Dunning. "Our pieces are purely technical but fit with both traditional and modern looks through cuts and colors that bridge the divide between classic and athletic."
The head-to-toe collection includes polos, pants, shorts, compression undergarments, thermal tops and sweaters, outerwear, accessories, headwear and "lifestyle" shirts. All showcase Dunning Golf’s unrivalled attention to detail in proprietary fabric technologies which ensure increased airflow, moisture wicking, breathability and UV protection that will not wash- or wear-out for the life of a garment.
Dunning Golf is found 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 Golf Club (Jupiter, FL), 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.
The Spring 2008 collection will begin shipping in January and retail from $35 for some compression undergarments to $700 for select Tour Stretch outerwear. Short sleeve polos in solid, two-tone and stripe options retail from $69-$109. Sizes range from XS-2XL in tops (select pieces in 3XL) and 30"-42" in bottoms.
