LPGA and Antigua Extend License Agreement Through 2013
PEORIA, ARIZ. —The Antigua Group, Inc. and the LPGA Tour have reached an agreement to extend their license agreement through 2013. The Antigua Group, an Arizona-based company, designs and markets lifestyle apparel under the Antigua and Slazenger brands.
“Antigua is thrilled to extend our great relationship with the LPGA. This license extension, coupled with our U.S. Solheim Cup Team work, is a great milestone for our company and brand,” said Ron McPherson, president and CEO of the Antigua Group.
As a licensee of the LPGA, Antigua produces apparel with the LPGA logo for sale. Additionally, Antigua will design the 2011 U.S. Solheim Cup Team uniforms including shirts, pants and skirts.
“Antigua is a global leader in golf apparel, so it’s only fitting that they continue to work so closely with the LPGA, Golf’s Global Tour,” said Jon Podany, chief marketing officer of the LPGA.
Members of the Antigua 2011 Tour Team include Brittany Lang, Stacy Prammanasudh, Alison Walshe and Wendy Ward.
The Spring Collection
The Spring 2011 season — as with all of Antigua’s collections since the Peoria, Ariz.-based Antigua Group, Inc. was founded 31 years ago — combines outstanding quality, style and value.
The new collection focuses on a sophisticated color palette, easy-to-merchandise color stories, classic styling with subtle feminine details, an expanded selection of lightweight and silky fabrics, excellent drape regardless of body type and a modern approach to traditional golfwear.
The Spring 2011 Antigua Women’s collection is merchandised as three innovative, opulent product groups — Dashing, Mischief and Dynamic.
DESERT DRY™ XTRA-LITE will be featured in the Dashing collection’s style illusion (nylon-mélange Polo) and Dazzle (Spandex yarn dyed Stripe Polo) style.
DESERT DRY™ XTRA-LITE fabric will also be part of the essential product offering such as the Women’s Exceed group, which consists of a Short Sleeve Polo, and Sleeveless and Long-Sleeve Polo styles.
