As golf season truly kicks into gear following the 107th PGA Championship, everyone is ready to hit the links. The weather is warming across the country and tee times are booking up.
For many, Memorial Day signifies the beginning of summer.
PXG, one of the premier brands in golf, recognizes that fact. That prompted the recent drop of its latest collection, the Stars & Stripes Capsule Collection. This perfectly on-brand collection is a salute to performance, style, and American golf culture.
A lot of brands may say that, but PXG truly embodies the American spirit. The brands founder and CEO, Bob Parsons, is a United States Marine Corps Vietnam veteran.
Having met and spent time with the man, I can attest to his bravery, courage, and willingness to push the envelope. He brought that mentality to golf, which has long since been a passion of his, as has creating top-of-the-line golf equipment and apparel.
PXG has already built a reputation for being arguably the world’s best golf club manufacturer. But their apparel game is rapidly gaining traction as well.
PXG – Stars & Stripes Collection: A Bold Tribute to American Golf
The latest drop from the leading golf brand includes everything from ball markers, head covers, golf gloves, caps, and on-course accessories.
If you are looking to be comfortable for that early tee time, the collection also features a sleek, “Americana Home Course” hoodie.
But the heavy hitters include some patriotic golf bags, both standing and hybrid versions, as well as a crossbody bag.
All told, there are 18 pieces in the latest drop for golfers to enjoy.
Since its inception 12 years ago, PXG has embodied the belief that every new product – from golf clubs to sport fashion apparel – should be markedly better.
But the golf brand is more just a business. Bob and his wife created the Bob & Renee Parsons Foundation, give back in the most endearing of ways. The foundation provides various grants to nonprofits, with a focus on low-income and underserved communities.
The foundation donates an average of $1 million every 15 days. That is not a typo, either. They have done for that for more than a decade.
As the brand has grown, so has its list of ambassadors and players that use the equipment. Jake Knapp, Zach Johnson and Eric Cole are PXG golfers on the PGA Tour. Meanwhile, Solheim Cup stars Celine Boutier and Megan Khang also represent the American brand.
