HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA (March 11, 2008) – As airlines are finding more ways to cut costs, travelers are feeling the crunch. United Airlines and US Airways both just announced a new checked baggage policy that permits passengers to check only one bag at no charge. Additional bags may be checked for an extra charge based on your traveling status. This can start to add up for golfers who travel with their sticks. Club Glove, the Number One travel bag on all Tours, has come up with a solution for players to travel for up to a week with their clubs with only one checked bag.
Club Glove has created a real world luggage hauling system that allows one to navigate miles of concourse with their golf clubs and gear using only one hand, leaving the other hand free to sip a latte or to answer that ever important phone call.
How is this possible? Well, it is obvious that Club Glove’s Last Bag will fit a regular-sized stand bag loaded with all your necessities. However, what is not known is you can also slide in two Club Glove Clothing Organizers, add a Club Glove Carry-On or Piggy Back II, and you’ve got enough cargo space for a full week of travel. These two pieces attach to create a “train” allowing you to roll two pieces at once. Your laptop, toiletries and miscellaneous items ride atop the retractable handle in the Shoulder Bag II. This piece also slides under the seat in front of you for easy access during the flight.
The “luggage hauling system” actually creates its own leverage due to center-of-gravity and counter balancing so there is absolutely no downward pressure on the handle. The system can actually balance itself on a nearly perfect 45-degree angle. You can now wheel 80+ pounds of recreational and/or golf gear with no lifting. The only thing the company hasn’t figured out is how to elevate the luggage to the trunk of the car without touching it.
“I have traveled extensively both domestically and internationally,” said Jeff Herold, President, West Coast Trends, Inc. “And I can understand the airline’s position on convincing people to pack lighter and more efficiently. With the cost of labor and fuel these days, if everyone does their part and packs more efficiently, it can only help our air travel system.”
Choose from 17 fashionable colors and 5 webbing options and simplify your search at baggage claim. No other company can come close to the color selection offered. Whatever your preference, we’ve got a color to fit your personality, and rest assured that you’re getting a piece of luggage built with a lifetime of use in mind.
All Club Glove travel bags and luggage are manufactured in the U.S.A. and constructed from Invista Cordura®. Invista Cordura is actually three times stronger than similar nylon fabrics in the market. Though considerably more expensive, it has been a key ingredient to the durability and success of the company’s products.
Other best-in-their-class features include YKK® zippers, ITW Nexus® buckles, and single piece burst proof construction. Several pieces feature a patented high-impact plastic wheel base that cradles and shields the bottom of the bag. In-line skate wheels with bearings make it incredibly easy to roll the bags wherever you need to go.
The Club Glove luggage line is available in clay, red, pink champagne, burgundy, purple, navy, royal, steel blue, green, khaki, camouflage, sun gold, mocha, mocha with pink, black, black with copper trim, and charcoal with webbing options in black, copper, sun gold, pink champagne or red. The webbing is custom-made to order with a slight charge and a reasonable lead time.
