-Swedish apparel brand becomes the outerwear choice of seven division one teams-
Premium hi-tech golf apparel brand Galvin Green has seen its award-winning rainwear garments prove a hit with leading Colleges across the United States and is now the outwear supplier seven NCCA Division 1 teams nationwide.
The increased demand for Galvin Green waterproofs amongst some of the best College golf teams in the country has corresponded with a wetter than average start to the golfing season for much of North America. The brand’s comprehensive range of 100% waterproof, high-performance jackets and pants for men and women is matched by a speedy embroidery service that ensures every team looks smart and uniform on the course.
“We’re thrilled to be working with a host of leading College teams and help elite golfers play their best whatever the weather,” said Lou Delfino, General Manager, North America. “It all started with a relationship through Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida and we’ve since gained interest in our garments mostly by word of mouth through other Colleges and Universities seeking top performing styles that are made to last,” he added.
Since taking Galvin Green rainwear pieces for her team, Julie Garner, Director of Golf and Head Women’s Golf Coach at Rollins College, has been impressed with the performance and eye-catching looks on offer from the latest range.
“The product is really light which suits our needs, because we don’t need heavy rain gear playing in the warm climate of Florida,” said Julie. “But we’ve played in some very wet conditions this Spring and the rain gear is more than up to the challenge in adverse weather, plus the team members absolutely love wearing it!
“We’ve had so many compliments on the uniforms and I certainly believe that the team play better in wet conditions by having outerwear that they can continue to swing freely in. A bonus is that it dries super quickly too, so we’re always ready for the next day’s play after a heavy downpour,” she added.
Launched in February, the new DRYVR™ line of 100% waterproof rainwear garments is headlined by the AMOS hooded jacket in GORE-TEX C-knit™ stretch fabric with slide and glide technology, plus the ARMSTRONG GORE-TEX Paclite® Stretch and mesh-lined ALBERT jackets for men in a wide range of size and color options.
The popular ALLY jacket in GORE-TEX Paclite® Stretch fabric spearheads the women’s fully waterproof jacket line-up and is now offered in a chic White/Cool Grey option. The dazzling AIDA and ANYA jackets with mesh lining are available in two and three color options respectively and come in sizes XS-XXL.
A wide range of jackets provide the perfect canvas for logos to ensure elite players look the part while representing their Collegiate teams. The premium embroidery process is carried out at the brand’s 3PL facility in Florida in conjunction with Innovative Apparel Inc. to ensure a rapid turnaround on custom decorated garments.
