Brampton, ON- (September 23, 2009) -Sligo Wear Inc., makers of fashion-forward performance golf apparel, today announced its unique collection of apparel and accessories is now available at Golf Galaxy locations in the United States.
Golf Galaxy, which opened its first store in 1997 and has 91 stores in 31 states, will carry Sligo Wear’s current line-up of performance men’s shirts, shorts and belts. Beginning in March 2010, the retail giant will also sell select pieces from Sligo’s exciting new 2010 Spring line.
“Golf Galaxy has a world-class selection of brand name golf equipment and apparel and this relationship provides critical validation for our brand,” said Shawn Aucoin, Sligo Wear Director of Sales. “We have worked hard to design eye-catching garments that perform on and off the course and we are excited to expose these unique collections to a broader group of golfers.”
Sligo Wear, which busted onto the golf scene in 2004, grabbed international attention in 2009 when staff player Brian Gay donned his Sligo outfits in victories at the St. Jude Classic and Verizon Heritage Championship and in a three-page Golf Digest spread this past September.
Last month, Sligo Wear unveiled its 2010 Spring line, a collection that will mark the debut of several key garments including a never-seen-before “lifestyle” collection. As part of this line, track jackets and cotton jersey tee-shirts will be offered to compliment the existing golf line for the player that wants to take Sligo off the course. This entire Spring line-up will be available at retail partners and directly thru Sligowear.com beginning March 2010.
Becoming a global brand Sligo is currently working with its distribution partners in the United States, Japan, China, Argentina, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Belgium, Spain, and the Netherlands.
