With the attention and participation in ladies golf naturally comes an increased focus on lady golf fashion. SWING by bette & court is a good case study in the growth of the sport. The company was founded in 1991 (the same year Tuttle Golf Collection was founded) by Maria Erickson, as bette & court golf collection. bette & court – derived from Maria’s maiden name, Betancourt – started as a premier manufacturer of women’s golf apparel and resort wear. SWING, an acronym for Sporting Women’s Innovative Gear, launched in 2004 as the performance collection for bette & court.
In 2008, Fantasi International, owner of both brands, bette & court and SWING, consolidated its ladies fashion and performance apparel under one name: SWING by bette & court. According to Maria Erickson, “SWING takes us beyond golf “. Presumably this means into a more fashion forward mode that goes beyond golf. In keeping with that expectation, Tuttle offers SWING’s line of golf-oriented fashion for summer 2009.
A quick review glance at the Abstract Print V-Neck Polo, the Broken Stripe Stretch Shorts and the Tipped Stretch Polo provide visual proof of Erickson’s claim.
Other labels aligned with the golf-fashion arena are Sport Haley, Bobby Jones, EP Pro, and Tail. Tuttle Golf Collection offers all.
The Augusta National member’s green coat began in 1937. Jackets were purchased from the Brooks Uniform Company, New York City and members were urged to buy and wear a Jacket during the Masters Tournament so that patrons would be able to identify a reliable source of information. Members were not initially enthusiastic about wearing the warm, green coat. Within several years, a light-weight, made-to-order Jacket was available from the Club’s Golf Shop. In 1949 the first Green Jacket was awarded to that year’s Masters champion, Sam Snead. The single breasted, single vent Jacket’s color is “Masters Green” and is adorned with an Augusta National Golf Club logo on the left chest pocket. The logo also appears on the brass buttons.

You know, if you really dig there are some great stories about certain clothes. We’ve heard about the original Levi’s, Rene Lacoste’s polo, and regimental stripe or club ties. The story of Bill’s Khakis is just as good.
Bill’s Khakis makes its home in downtown Reading, Pennsylvania in a renovated warehouse building that was once home to the Reading Hardware Company and now appears on the National Historic Register. Bills Khakis chooses to locate here to serve as an example that a 21st century business can still compete in a city that was built on a 20th century economy. Bills Khakis has been named to Inc. Magazine’s Inner City 100 five times, as one of America’s 100 fastest growing inner city businesses.All khakis go through a supreme period of greatness. The fabric has been worn into an ultimate stage of softness and comfort.
Because of the unique origin and attention to detail, Tuttle has decided to offer Bills Khakis. Their Vintage Twills are constructed from 7.8 ounce imported cotton twill but made in the USA and are machine washable. Visit Tuttle to see these and other “classics” from Bill’s Khakis.
Tail "Athletic Fit" Zip Front Jacquard Shirt
In 2008, Tail Activewear was acquired by GVCH. Their vision was to perpetuate Tail style in apparel that allows today’s golf and tennis player the freedom of movement and flexibility. The investor group was lead by Jerry Edwards, CEO and Managing Director of Great Circle Ventures Holdings, LLC (GCVH) which is a private investment company he formed to acquire and operate Tail Activewear, Inc. No stranger to the activewear arena Mr. Edwards was Chief Executive Officer, President and acting Chairman of the Board of Pearl Izumi, a leading brand of hi-tech, performance apparel and footwear for cycling, running, fitness and other active outdoor sports.
Tail’s garments are “designed to perform as well as the people who wear them.” Their styles maintain the critical balance between fit and function with keen attention to things like moisture management, wind and rain protection, anti-microbial fabrics and constructions that minimize friction and fabric creep. Functionality, however, does not giveway to design. The styles are sharp and trendy while at the same time being highly functional for their intended purpose. Tail Activewear is sold nationwide and can be found online at Tuttle Distinctive Sportswear.
