U.S. President’s Cup Selects OGIO as Team’s Official Travel Gear
BLUFFDALE, Utah (September 15, 2009) – OGIO has taken another step towards dominating the golf travel bag category, with its selection as Official Travel Gear provider to the U.S. President’s Cup team. Tiger Woods, Phil Mickelson, Fred Couples and Jim Furyk, among others, will carry OGIO travel gear before and during the international match play competition at Harding Park Golf Course in San Francisco from October 6 – 11, 2009.
“More than a third of all Tour players now commute globally with our popular golf travel line, and live out of OGIO luggage on the Tour,” says Tom Gocke, the company’s global vp of golf. “It’s a tremendous honor to receive such a nod from the President’s Cup, and testament to our unstoppable momentum in the industry.”
U.S. President’s Cup team members – plus their spouses and caddies – will be outfitted in an assortment of OGIO’s award-winning travel gear including the Terminal and Layover rolling duffels; the Bus – an oversized and sturdy check-in sized duffel with a removable messenger bag; plus some of the company’s most popular backpacks and messenger bags including the Metro and the Tote.
“Our customers share an enthusiasm for carrying OGIO in a way that transcends traditional ‘luggage,'” Gocke explains. “OGIO is a respected, recognized brand among athletes in many pursuits including golf, because these bags are created by and for athletes. They are cleverly designed to maximize packing capabilities; they are backed with a lifetime warrantee; and yes – they offer a style that is sharp, fashionable, and leaps off a turnstile as only OGIO knows how.”
The travel bags, as well as a Limited Edition President’s Cup Signature OGIO Golf Bags, will be available for sale through select retail partners and online at www.ogio.com beginning late September 2009.
