PING Unveils AW21 Men’s Performance Apparel Collection

PING has unveiled its Autumn/Winter 2021 men’s apparel collection, which builds on the success of the AW20 range and represents the most technical collection ever released by the brand, providing unrivalled protection in all conditions, come wind, rain or shine.

Engineered to work with the ever-changing climates, the AW21 range features PING’s innovative technology platforms and the latest premium fabrics that have been designed and engineered to allow golfers to play through the seasons, without compromising comfort or performance.

Working in tandem with the brand’s trusted Sensor platform technology, the collection sees PING expand its partnership with market-leading insulation brand, PrimaLoft®, to include PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume® insulation technology in the new Norse S3 jacket.

Complementing this, the SensorDry® Series has been expanded to provide golfers with a comprehensive range of wet weather protection that enables them to continue playing throughout the winter months.

SensorDry® Series: Take No Cover


The updated SensorDry® Series now features three options: the SensorDry® 2.5 suit, the SensorDry® Pro suit and the SensorDry® suit, each of which offers exceptional protection in even the wettest of conditions.

Developed with PING’s Tour Apparel Ambassadors, the SensorDry® 2.5 suit provides the ultimate waterproof and windproof protection from the elements. Super lightweight and stretch 2.5-layer fabric provides golfers with the most advanced breathable and waterproof outerwear, ensuring no distractions during the round.

The SensorDry® Pro suit has been designed for superior comfort and functionality, which allows golfers to adapt to the ever-changing conditions, offering waterproof performance with additional features for extra warmth in cold and wet weather.

With a number of added features, the jacket includes inner storm-cuffs and an adjustable collar, so that rain droplets don’t compromise performance, whilst a brushed lining to the upper body provides added warmth and protection. Featuring a PING Eye logo next to the chest pocket and a high gloss two-way front zip, the jacket is available in three colour-blocked designs, meaning golfers can play and look their best, whatever the weather.

Completing the AW21 waterproof collection, the SensorDry® suit offers proven waterproof performance in wet weather with its fully seam-sealed construction. Designed as a go-to style for golfers when the weather changes and waterproof outerwear is essential, an inner stretch mesh lining and an adjustable hem and hook-and-loop cuffs provide comfort in the wind and rain. This jacket is available in four, core classic colourways to suit the style of every golfer.

Norse S3 Jacket: Warmth When You Need It

 

The next generation of the ground-breaking Norse series, the Norse S3 jacket is a fully insulated PrimaLoft® jacket that has been engineered for superior warmth in cold weather and features the introduction of PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume® insulation.

A pioneering technology that enables PING to continue to push the boundaries of performance golf apparel, PrimaLoft® ThermoPlume® insulation is comprised of small, silky plumes of fibre that mimic the lightweight warmth and softness of high-quality natural down. This delivers the unwavering performance features that golfers need – insulating loft, water-resistant protection, and compressibility.

The outer design features a stitch-free 3D quilted effect that enhances wind and water resistance and provides a clean, contemporary visual with added warmth, comfort, and style.

Power Half-Zip: Exceptional Modern Performance

Also new for Autumn/Winter 2021, the Power Half-Zip wind top has been engineered to stretch and move with the body in a variety of playing conditions, delivering the ultimate technical mid-layer for on-course performance. Additional stretch panelling allows greater ease of movement, while water resistant and highly wind resistant properties ensure that the Power Half-Zip top is an essential for year-round golf.

Felix: Geometric Camouflage Graphic

 

Continuing the geometric camouflage pattern from Spring/Summer 2021, the Felix mid-layer provides an additional layer of warmth on the colder days, for a seamless transition from season-to-season.

Engineered and designed to provide thermal, stretch, water-resistant properties and freedom of movement in cold weather, the Felix works across all three colour stories. This allows golfers to co-ordinate their winter wardrobe by pairing it with winter accessories, such as the Camo Knit hat and the reversible Harlow neck warmer, both of which feature the same camouflage pattern.

The Sensor Platform

The Sensor platform from PING is an innovative technological system, designed to ensure that every garment is specifically engineered to respond to the body’s requirements and the demands of the game, whatever the conditions.

SensorCool® – Engineered to be worn next to the skin, SensorCool® technology, featuring moisture moving properties, draws excess perspiration from the skin. This will keep the golfer dry for the duration of a round and beyond, guaranteeing exceptional comfort levels in all conditions. Each SensorCool® garment is crease resistant and crafted from stretch fabrics that are designed to complement the athletic movements made during a golf swing.

SensorWarm® – SensorWarm® technology embodies a thermal layer, designed to trap warm air and maintain a preferable body temperature. This layer also works as a barrier to resist wind chill and the subsequent effect it can have on a swing. SensorWarm® garments are designed to minimise weight and distraction, through the use of breathable and stretch fabrics. Such qualities also enable the garments to work with the golfer’s body for optimum playability.

SensorDry® – This technology provides the ultimate, long-lasting waterproof and windproof protection against all the elements. The garments incorporating SensorDry® are air permeable and, therefore, truly breathable. The outerwear is specifically cut in lightweight and noiseless fabrics, to eradicate distractions often associated with weather protective garments, while the fabrics used hold stretch qualities intended to move with your body throughout the golf swing.
