New black palm shows less dirt and wear
LOUISVILLE, KY (August 2013) – Bionic Gloves, the leader in glove innovation, has given customers one more reason to love the RelaxGrip glove, rolling out a model with a sleek black palm. The palm has all of Bionic’s benefits, but its new color shows less dirt than the original white palm, making the glove look newer longer.
Golfers already enjoy the benefits of the patented pad technology with the RelaxGrip model, because it’s engineered for a better grip, comfort and durability. Independent testing has proven that Bionic is 2X more durable when compared to a standard premium leather golf glove, and it also retains gripping power over a longer period of time. This glove features a leather palm, synthetic back and a strategically placed pad system in areas that are prone to wear and tear, enhancing the longevity of the glove.
“White golf gloves can show dirt and wear very quickly,” said Director of Marketing Cheryl Fink. “The new black palm of the RelaxGrip glove gives our customers a way to use their favorite golf glove longer, reducing the appearance of wear and tear.”
The new RelaxGrip glove with a black palm has all the same features as the original white palm model, equipped with a patented pad system that evens out the surface of the hand for a lighter, more relaxed grip on the golf club. A double-row finger-grip system also acts to promote a lighter, more stable grip, and the pre-rotated finger design complements the natural closure of the hand and helps reduce fatigue. The glove features Lycra® motion and web zone gussets to provide a better range of motion and a more comfortable fit.
The RelaxGrip glove with black palm can be purchased online at www.bionicgloves.com and at select golf specialty stores, pro shops and sporting goods stores. Retail price is $16.99.
