Take the Presidents Cup Eye Wear
The yin and yang of fashion courses (target = "_blank"> Golf Story Mode) is clear vs. traditional technique. Of course, opposition forces have been interconnected so invisible. Many traditional golf wear are apparently made with performance fabrics and modern processes, whether from Dunning, Fairway & Greene, and Polo Ralph Lauren, who showed two distinct collections, to address both needs, last week at its headquarters in New York.
Symbolic of the whole society are probably the showrooms to Ralph Lauren: a sanctuary masculine style with dark wood paneling and hunting scenes on the walls, located in a skyscraper Modern steel-framed walls and green-shade Glass in Madison Avenue. The dichotomy of fashion course is indicated by the two collections – Polo Golf and RLX – shows in the same room.
The former refers to the classic appearance of Ben Hogan and country-club lives up to Newport Beach and Coral Gables: shirts knitted cotton (not mercerized to preserve the softness and drape silk shorts), striped canvas, cable cardigans, Fair Isle vests, cream-colored and several old-timey summits, including a new vintage monogram players an upcoming game that is said to require 69,000 points (and not by the hand, we hope).
The second line, RLX is the team's performance ahead and polyesters section "air" in the striped shirts, colors bright (raspberry, green chroma), and pockets for holding clever T-shirts and other things. The fit is much closer to the body. As an example of this look is Luke Donald, concerts sponsored by the pro line.
What is the winning approach? Library RLX is now 40 percent of sales, golf by Ralph Lauren executives, against only 8 per cent a few years ago (he declined to say exactly when). This seems to indicate an explosive growth in clothing performance (RLX) at the expense of the classic. However, it has reduced by RLX Polo Golf sales? Ralph Lauren executives do not say. As mentioned above, there is some interaction between the two approaches. The RLX line is classical pieces – a cricket jersey, for example, or a diamond vest – Polo Golf and has performance characteristics many. So the history of fashion is unclear.
More importantly, there may be one or the other thing. No matter what your style guide, a player is not completely traditional clothing every time you play golf, just like people do not wear suits at all professional contexts. The player chooses its appearance depending on many factors: your golf buddies, the level of prestige of the club or course you play, if you see your boss or customers in the area, climate, and so on.
The reality of fashion is that children feel comfortable tradition in some informal contexts and most modern in others.
Happy Feet
The largest manufacturer of golf shoes, FootJoy, perhaps a similar problem in maintaining a traditional approach, while not lacking on performance looks younger. FootJoy this week presented a new spectacle of golf shoes, FJ Sport, designed for "the player seeking bold shoes, golf sports-inspired."
Time leader in waterproof classic golf shoes, FootJoy face stiff competition from giants Nike and Adidas, whose shoes are almost exclusively products in the sporting aspect. However, the parameters are somewhat different. All golf shoes must perform. If your shoes are not waterproof, or difficulty uncomfortable or unstable during the swing, then what are they? Shoes are more pieces of equipment like fashion.
FootJoy and made many golf shoes athletic-inspired, but the new model complements the elegant, upscale shoes FJ icon. Sport features FJ grain leather upper, mesh lining, and soft light buffer. Icon FJ costs about $ 250, will sell sport FJ $ 135.
