Galvin Green Unveils New G-Force Capsule Collection

VÄXJÖ, SWEDEN – Leading high-performance golf apparel brand Galvin Green today unveiled a new premium G-FORCE capsule collection of garments in ultra-modern patterns inspired by the force of the waves that golfers often witness when playing close to the ocean on links courses.

The latest limited-edition range from the environmentally conscious brand features distinctive wavy designs and seascape colorways applied to a windproof and water-resistant jacket, a warm crew-neck sweater, six stylish polo shirts and a matching baseball cap. Many of the garments feature a prominent ‘GG’ logo in a contemporary style intended to make a bold impact on or off the golf course.

Building on the positive reaction to its COOL COLLECTION introduced six months ago, Galvin Green has added the all-new LUCIANO INTERFACE-1™ jacket and DILLON INSULA™ sweater to the latest selection of garments for golfers looking for added protection from the elements. The introduction of the eye-catching MATHIS and MATTEO VENTIL8™ PLUS shirt styles and a SCORPIO cap with striking branding at the epicentre complete the collection.

The windproof and water-resistant LUCIANO jacket in Navy/White offers top versatility and an individual look for those seeking a daring appearance both on and off the golf course. Crafted from INTERFACE-1™ stretch fabric, it features a drawstring at the hem and elasticated cuffs to deliver comfort and optimal freedom of movement during the swing, plus two front pockets. The Navy front and back matched with the contrasting sleeves in lighter shades of blue deliver a super stylish modern look.

For cooler days, the crew-neck DILLON sweater delivers incredible warmth and a soft, stretchy feel to offer ultimate comfort and breathability. Crafted using responsibly sourced INSULA™ fabric crafted from recycled fabric, it features the prominent brand logo surrounded by stripes in a pattern that is reminiscent of crashing waves. The contrasting Navy sleeves ensure the garment delivers a truly distinctive appearance.

The MATHIS shirt in VENTIL8™ PLUS fabric draws the eye to the bold logo at the centre of the garment, which is complimented by a jagged lined pattern that surrounds it. The design features a contrasting collar and back in a bold colorway to deliver a super modern appearance out on the golf course. The shirt is available in Navy/White, Cool Grey/White and Indigo Bunting/Navy.

Offering an equally striking look, the contemporary MATTEO shirt sees the ‘G’ logo take centre stage across the front and back of the garment to help golfers stand out for all the right reasons. It is also available in the Navy/White and Indigo Bunting/Navy colorways, plus Cool Grey/White/Navy.

Both shirts in the collection provide excellent moisture-transportation properties and breathability to keep the body dry, while offering UV 20+ protection in warmer temperatures. Easy to maintain, the shirts also dry quickly and without the need to iron.

The smart SCORPIO baseball cap, which features an adjustable width, is designed with VENTIL8™ PLUS moisture-wicking fabric that dries exceptionally quickly for greater comfort during the round. The Navy and White panelling matched with the stylish ‘G’ logo to the centre delivers a supremely refreshing look on sunny days.

The G-FORCE capsule collection from Galvin Green is available from leading stockists and can be viewed at www.galvingreen.com.

Nippon Shaft Wins on PGA and Champions Tours

CARLSBAD, CA – The winners of last weekend’s PGA Tour and PGA Tour Champions tournaments both used N.S.PRO MODUS³ shafts in their winning clubs.

The 27-year-old former Illinois star (with N.S.PRO MODUS³ Hybrid in his utility iron) paired with his friend from Alabama to win the Zurich Classic of New Orleans, where the two-man team shot a tournament record total 30-under par in fourball and alternate shot formats. It was the first PGA Tour win for both players.

Meanwhile, the 51-year-old native Australian and former John Deere Classic champion won his first event on the Champions Tour on the fourth hole of a sudden death playoff at the Invited Celebrity Classic. He shot 66-65-70—201 in regulation at Las Colinas Country Club in Irving, Texas and earned $300,000.  He played N.S.PRO MODUS³ PROTO in his irons and N.S.PRO MODUS³ Wedge.

“Nippon Shaft is excited to congratulate the winners of the Zurich Classic of New Orleans and the Inspired Celebrity Classic,” said Hiro Fukuda, sales and marketing for Nippon Shaft. “Nippon Shaft is focused on providing products of the utmost quality shafts to everyone who plays them from touring professionals to everyday golfers seeking to elevate their performance and enhance their enjoyment of the game.”

More than 200 players on the PGA Tour, LPGA Tour, European Tour and Korn Ferry Tour use Nippon Shaft’s MODUS³ series steel shafts to help gain their desired distance, accuracy, and trajectory.
