NEW BEDFORD, Mass., Jan. 24, 2010 – The new Kate Lord™ headwear collection by AHEAD is a nice blend of fashion with its classic fit and style and functionality. The collection offers ballmarker caps and visors with unique motif designs, new hat clips with crystal ballmarkers and a new line of crystal visors and tech caps for women.
“We are very excited about our new line of caps and visors for women,” said Tracy Wilson, general manager, Kate Lord. “There is not only a wide selection of headwear for women to choose from but also they can show their personalities with the variety of styles and ballmarker motifs offered. Kate Lord first introduced themed hat clips and ball markers two years ago and golf shops couldn’t keep them in stock. We decided to expand the line and also add a cap and visor that has the magnet motif built right into the brim with matching ballmarker. The designs are fun and usually generate a lot of buzz on the greens.”
