Turtleson Introduces the Riviera Collection

Turtleson, creators of striking, sophisticated apparel for discerning customers who appreciate exceptional style and wearability, today unveiled the Riviera Collection for Spring ’25. Designed to reimagine Turtleson’s classic designs with fresh colors, refined fits and the understated elegance of the French Riviera, each piece in the collection is crafted for individuals who appreciate polished style with a touch of adventure.

The Riviera Collection effectively blends timeless inspiration with contemporary innovation, ensuring that every piece meets the needs of the modern gentleman – on the golf course, in the office or on a weekend getaway. The key story, however, is a new refinement of Turtleson’s classic polo, which after extensive research is now built with a structured collar that holds its shape without collar stays or uncomfortable rigidity. The design also features a modernized placket for a cleaner look, and tailored sleeves for improved ease of movement. The result – the most comfortable, versatile, and sophisticated polo Turtleson has ever produced.

PUMA Golf x Arnold Palmer Collection Honors The King with a Contemporary Twist

Arnold Palmer was known as The King for a lot of reasons, but for true fans it was as much about his charisma and style as it was his incredible talent on the links. As such, the latest installment of the PUMA Golf x Arnold Palmer collection is designed to capture Arnie’s iconic style with a contemporary twist for both men and women.

The new PUMA Golf x Arnold Palmer Collection men’s line features a mix of bold and subtle graphics complemented by tasteful colors that allow for a great variety of looks. The understated elegance of Arnie’s umbrella is juxtaposed with vibrant floral patterns in some items, while others feature a playful “tea time,” pattern complete with the makings of Arnold Palmer drinks. Tipped jacquard polos also offer impressive detail that those with a sharp eye will appreciate, while a color palette that includes the likes of Zen Blue, Pale Pink, and Deep Navy, inspire both the excitement and the calm of the quickly approaching Spring weather. 

Driven with Style: Cobra Golf x Arnold Palmer Limited Edition DS Adapt Drivers

There’s no golfer in the history of the sport that embodies the combination of spectacular style and performance more than the KING, Arnold Palmer. From driving greens to piloting jets around the world, Arnie was a high-octane competitor that always looked as good as he played.

In honor of the KING, COBRA Golf is offering new, limited-edition Arnold Palmer DS-Adapt drivers. Complete with Arnie’s iconic umbrella logo pattern on the two-tone crown and sole as well as special edition shaft and headcover, the new limited-edition driver is available in three DS-Adapt models - LS, X, and MAX-K.
