Ping-launches AW18 Performance Apparel Collections

PING has revealed details of its new 2018 Autumn/Winter performance apparel range, launching what they say is the brand’s most technologically advanced men’s and ladies’ collections to date.

The company says that they are offering a contemporary range which offers performance, style and quality on and off the course.

PING has expanded its partnership with  PrimaLoft^® to create a range of premium, high-performance garments following what they say was an excellent years trading.

The company say that for the first time in golf apparel, PING utilises the new PrimaLoft® Performance Fabric Energy Series.

The new, Norse PrimaLoft® Zoned Jacket has been engineered for core warmth and wind protection, ensuring the golfer stays warm and comfortable on the course through the changing seasons.

Zoned PrimaLoft® Silver Active Insulation to the upper front and back combines with a lightweight, stretch outer fabric to ensure core warmth and complete freedom of movement throughout the swing.

The Norse PrimaLoft® Jacket returns for a second season. Engineered and fully insulated with PrimaLoft® Silver Insulation Active, the Norse jacket is aimed at ensuring comfort in  cold weather.

Utilising a new fabric technology for golf apparel, the Norse PrimaLoft® Fleece is engineered from the recently introduced PrimaLoft® Performance Fabric Energy Series. Designed specially to move and retain shape throughout the golf swing, the fleece delivers exceptional comfort and performance in a mid-layer.

A luxurious, soft fleece fabric in a classic, timeless design ensures excellent warmth without weight, while a highly breathable, four-way stretch fabric provides optimum freedom of movement, endlessly retaining its shape, time-after-time.

The classic Pax full-zip Merino sweater is a mid layer constructed from Italy’s  Zegna Baruffa yarn.

Using H2Dry, a technical treatment that gives pure wool yarns characteristics that previously were not thought possible: breathable, naturally elastic, total easy care and machine washable.

The Zero Gravity Tour Jacket returns with a new, half-zipped, contrast colour-blocked design for Autumn/Winter.

Engineered to play and developed in conjunction with feedback from PING tour players, the Zero Gravity Tour half-zip waterproof jacket is constructed from ultra-lightweight Pertex Shield 2.5-layer fabric, offering exceptional levels of stretch and breathability (20,000gm/24h) and ensuring complete freedom of movement throughout the swing.

Fully seam-sealed throughout, the jacket offers waterproof protection (20,000mm) and is guaranteed by PING to be waterproof for three years.

Perfect for layering over Norse styles on cold and wet days, the jacket has also been cleverly designed to pack away into its own pocket for optimal convenience and space saving in the golf bag.
