The Tennessee-based apparel company will co-sponsor ING’s fall forum and media awards.
LAKE MARY, Fla. – The International Network of Golf (ING), the golf industry’s only media-based networking organization, announced today the appointment of lifestyle apparel brand Turtleson as its official apparel partner. Turtleson, based in Bristol, Tenn., will outfit attendees of the ING Fall Forum and will co-sponsor the 33rd Annual ING Media Awards at the 2027 PGA Show in Orlando.
“We are thrilled to form this partnership with a company that strives every day to provide excellence not only in its products, but in the personalized service it provides to its customers,” said Mike Jamison, executive director of ING. “From my first meeting with the Turtleson team, it was obvious they have developed a culture that promotes quality, creativity, teamwork and success. We look forward to a long relationship with Turtleson.”
Since its founding in 2011, Turtleson has built a reputation for creating apparel that works across seasons and occasions without compromise. Turtleson’s approach centers on relaxed refinement: versatile, easy-to-wear pieces that deliver an effortlessly elevated look. Rather than chasing trends, Turtleson invests in improved construction and reliable sizing. The result is apparel that performs as promised and elevates the everyday, becoming the pieces customers reach for most.
“With our shared commitment to excellence, it was a natural fit for us to partner with ING,” said Greg Oakley, co-founder and CEO of Turtleson. “Both Turtleson and ING strive to deliver the highest quality of service to the golf industry, and we are excited to work together to continue that mission.”
Turtleson recently unveiled its fall collection of elevated essentials and luxury natural fibers. The collection focuses on intentional layering systems and thoughtful color palettes to create versatile pieces that earn their way into your wardrobe, just in time for fall activities and adventures.
Turtleson performance golf polos feature two exclusive characteristics. The Standwell Collar uses proprietary bonded construction to hold its shape from within, without collar stays or hidden buttons. And the distinctive vertical 11-Stitch button is a nod to 2011, the year the company was founded.
ING has been networking the golf industry since 1990. ING is “where media connects with the golf industry.” The group conducts several awards programs, at least one forum per year, and has a significant presence at the annual PGA Show via its hospitality room in the media center.
The ING Fall Forum is a gathering of golf media and business executives for networking, product introduction, information sharing, and golf competitions. The Inn On The Lakes, a charming boutique hotel in the heart of Sebring, will host the event. The schedule consists of two golf tournaments, sponsor press conferences, marketing seminars, product presentations and networking, plus excellent dining.
Participation includes two rounds of golf, two dinners, two breakfasts and all educational sessions. Companies can also reserve a press conference slot, during which they will present information about their company and products to the media attendees.
