PUMA BRINGS THE X FACTOR WITH SOPHISICATED X COLLECTION INSPIRED BY THE BRAND’S 10 YEAR PARTNERSHIP WITH GOLF SUPERSTAR, RICKIE FOWLER
Fowler to debut PUMA’s X Collection at the 2019 Open Championship
CARLSBAD, Calif. (July 15, 2019) – PUMA Golf, a leader in on-trend golf design and style, introduced its new X Collection, a head-to-toe assortment of apparel, accessories and footwear that demonstrate a new level of sophisticated styling with the same great performance and comfort that has become synonymous with the PUMA brand. Rickie Fowler, known for his on-course style, will debut the collection on Thursday at the 148th Open Championship at Royal Portrush in Northern Ireland.
Inspired in part by the celebration of Rickie’s 10-year, trend-setting partnership with PUMA, the X Collection celebrates his unique ability to bring the X-factor, while highlighting the maturation and elevation of his style over the past decade. The X Collection fuses progressive design with classic style, deriving inspiration from traditional fabrics and patterns of the British Isles, incorporating houndstooth detailing and a navy, green and white color palette that pays homage to the region where golf was born. The X Collection blends luxury menswear with style elements from PUMA’s rich history delivering an authentic nod to the past, while still delivering modern day performance benefits.
“There are very few golfer and apparel company relationships that have yielded greater impact on the way golfers dress than that of PUMA and Rickie Fowler. From hi-tops and joggers to flat brim caps and untucked shirts, together Rickie and PUMA are setting trends and continuing to make an indelible mark on golf fashion,” said Grant Knudson, Head of Product Creation, PUMA Golf. “Rickie’s style has evolved over the years, starting various fashionable trends in on course wear by blending influences from streetwear and modern fashion. Today, his style reflects both a maturation in his game and personal confidence, and the X Collection was designed to reflect that transition in an elegant way.”
