KENTFIELD, Calif. (November 8, 2007) – Fairway Skins Company, maker of a superior line of high-fashion ladies’ leather golf gloves and pouches, has added three new sales representatives in the U.S., as interest in the company’s products continues to grow. Fairway Skins, winner of a "Best New Product" award at this year’s PGA Fall Expo, has seen an expansion in sales this year throughout the U.S. and in Europe.
"We are pleased to announce the addition of these new sales reps," said Marje Helfet, CEO of Fairway Skins. "They will be presenting our products in some areas of the country where golf is played year ’round and where demand for our gloves and pouches knows no seasons."
Doug Applegate will cover north Florida and Georgia for Fairway Skins. A golf rep for the past ten years, Applegate has won awards from several companies for his sales of equipment, bags, accessories and apparel. Donna Connell, whose territory will be south Florida, has been in the golf business for thirty years as a buyer, rep, sales manager and designer. Tony Webb, who will cover Arizona and New Mexico for Fairway Skins, is a former golf professional and co-president of a custom-woven fabric company, and currently is a part owner of Remedy Golf, which manufactures divot tools and other golf accessories.
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, morning glory, passionflower and tulip. 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 worn by casual and serious golfers alike. Golfers appreciate their attractive look, ultrasoft feel and superior performance. Men are discovering what great gifts the gloves and matching pouches make for the golfing women in their lives. Also, Fairway Skins gloves and pouches are popular tee and tournament prizes.
Fairway Skins Company was awarded the GolfTest USA "Seal of Excellence" this year for superior quality, value and performance. In an independent single-company test and review, female golfers using Fairway Skins gloves sent positive feedback on all aspects of the gloves.
