NEWPORT BEACH, CA, January 13, 2017… coLLo™ Apparel, makers of high performance, UPF 50+ sunblocking men’s golf shirts, announced today it will be participating in the 2017 PGA Merchandise Show January 25 through January 27 in Orlando, Fla. coLLo will display its complete line of newly introduced golf shirts at Booth #6585 in the Orange County Convention Center.
“We’re looking forward to showcasing our innovative new golf shirts at the PGA Merchandise Show this year,” said Tom Hurst, coLLo founder, and president. “We consider our shirts to be essential equipment on the golf course and we welcome attendees at the show to visit our booth and learn about the new technology incorporated in our high-end fashion shirts.”
The uniquely designed high profile, patent pending collar protects the back of the neck while offering a traditional look in the front. Featuring certified UPF 50+ sunblocking, moisture wicking, four-way coLLoStretch™ fabrics, coLLo is exclusively focused on making UV protection golf clothing. The coLLo men’s golf shirt line is available in three different collections:
• Cypress offers maximum athletic performance in a year-round dry fleck jersey fabric, available in athletic and relaxed fit models.
• Sawgrass utilizes coLLo’s luxurious double-dyed and lightly brushed fabric offered in athletic and relaxed fit models.
• Princeville is offered in an athletic fit and features lightweight brushed fabric made from 15 environmentally friendly recycled plastic bottles.
Nearly 3.7 million cases of skin cancer are diagnosed each year, and the risks for golfers are exceptionally high. Created to block 95 percent of the sun’s damaging UV rays, the design and fabric of the coLLo golf shirt line can help players get the most from their game with unequaled sun protection and maximum comfort.
“My message to golfers is, DON’T GET BURNED,” added Hurst. “Proper clothing is your first line of protection against the sun’s burning rays. Prolonged exposure to bright sunlight and sun transmitted through cloud cover can result in sunburn and premature aging. Worse, the effects of the sun are cumulative and irreversible. Every hour of sun exposure, every sunburn, all adds up over time.”
Sold through golf pro shops and retailers, coLLo shirts can be embroidered with a custom golf club logo. The company is offering 10% off all retail orders placed at the show. coLLo is serious about protecting golfers from UV radiation, and they will donate a percentage of every coLLo shirt sale to skin cancer research and prevention.
