January, 2, 2013- Toronto based apparel manufacturer Levelwear and PGA Tour rookie, Brad Fritsch have teamed up to prominently showcase the Levelwear apparel collection during the 2013 PGA Tour season. Fritsch, who will also be sponsored by the Ottawa Senators, will wear items from the officially licensed, Levelwear NHL Golf collection which focuses on classically styled polos, outerwear, and activewear for men and women.
“I am very excited to partner with an up and coming Canadian golf clothing company to start my PGA Tour career. With Levelwear also being an NHL licensed apparel company this was a perfect fit to go along with one of my main sponsors, the Ottawa Senators.” Fritsch said.
“We couldn’t be happier to have Brad representing Levelwear on the PGA Tour. This is our first PGA Tour sponsorship and Brad’s story of hard work, loyalty, and persistence to finally reach the upper echelon of his sport, closely mimics the direction of the Levelwear brand and the successes we’ve seen over the past 3 seasons. As a smaller Canadian manufacturer competing against the industries finest and most established names, growth does not come easy and it’s been exciting to see the tremendous business expansion we’ve been experiencing” says Levelwear Brand Manager, Brett Saunders. “With Brad wearing our apparel on the PGA Tour, we feel our golf lifestyle inspired looks will really resonate with both golf and hockey fans, allowing them to show their team spirit in a very classy and sophisticated way.”
The Levelwear collection is found in better green grass golf shops and licensed sports retailers throughout North America. The sponsorship term between Levelwear and Mr. Fritsch is a 3-year agreement.
