New technologies push the boundaries to create the ultimate winter golf gear
Callaway Apparel has unveiled its most advanced Autumn-Winter collection yet for 2021, with new technologies creating a range of stylish, weather-beating products for men and women.
Incorporating the latest and most advanced technology to brave the elements, this new collection gives golfers protection against all conditions with an extensive choice of breathable layering pieces and, for harsher weather, the brand’s Weather Series, which features the market-leading innovation from winter clothing technology experts.
Perfectly blending authenticity and classic style, Callaway Apparel’s AW21 collection ticks every box for keeping warm and dry, and continues to make strides in sustainability by using a minimum of 25% recycled fabrics in the majority of products, denoted by the ECO logo.
Hanney Milbauer, Callaway Apparel’s Senior Director of Design, said: “We have really pushed the boundaries with our Autumn-Winter 2021 collection, incorporating new technologies to ensure we are offering the absolute best products on the market in terms of functionality, performance and style.
“Sustainability is an increasingly important factor in our designs too, and we are proud to be offering several different technologies in fabrics which have minimal impact on the environment.”
Colour palettes
The AW21 range is based on two main colour palettes. One has essential colours such as navy, charcoal grey and black complemented by flashes of Golf Green and Cactus Flower Pink for bolder impact, with Lettuce Green a highlight in the women’s collection.
The second palette is one of contrast, moving from light to dark and offering a balanced mix of electric hues such as Blue Tattoo, True Red and Poppy Red with natural tones such as Hydrangea Blue and Geranium Pink. The colours are strong enough to work as single-colour statements or blend perfectly with black, navy or white.
PrimaLoft® – unbeatable insulation
Keeping warm and dry on the course is essential. Callaway Apparel has partnered with PrimaLoft® for the first time this season to incorporate market-leading insulation which is lightweight and packable. Its superior softness results in a soft, snug fit, and body temperature regulation technology ensures you will not overheat. It is water resistant and made from 100% recycled content.
Singtex Stormfleece – the ultimate soft shell
Not simply a fleece; this is soft-shell engineering at its best, representing a breakthrough in the textile market. Lightweight yet designed to defend tough weather conditions, it is the ultimate layering piece with a low carbon footprint to boot.
Swing Tech
The AW21 collection again features Callaway Apparel’s innovative Swing Tech – reengineered construction to minimise restriction and maximise range of motion on every swing. Swing Tech fuses athletic performance with a classic fit to make sure you look good, feel great and perform your best.
Aquapel – next generation wet weather gear
Fast drying, breathable and durable, Aquapel offers unbeatable water protection. This new technology modifies fabric at the molecular level by permanently attaching hydrophobic ’whiskers’ to individual fibres which elevate liquids, causing them to bead and roll of the surface. It features a hydrocarbon polymer which is both more ecologically friendly and economically smart. The result is a superb waterproof option which is both fluorocarbon-free and PFOA-free.
Men’s Highlights
