PING FREQUENCY POLO SHIRT £60

-

Ping has an illustriou­s past that has helped shape the evolution of golf equipment for over half a century. By continuing to use iconic names like the Anser in its latest ranges, Ping harks back to the very foundation­s of the company. In 2021, it has done something similar in apparel, too, with the new Frequency polo.

PROUD OF THE PAST

The new shirt features a design based on the impact sound frequencie­s of the original Ping 1-A putter. Ping’s seminal moment came back in 1959 when Karsten Solheim named the company in honour of the distinctiv­e sound the ball made off the putterface. The Frequency polo’s design is therefore both a statement about the company’s present and a clever nod to the past.

It sits alongside the Holten, Romy, Etten and Staton in the latest line-up of polos, and shows that Ping is eager to offer something a little bit different visually this season, while still delivering on all the performanc­e elements golfers find most important.

PERFORMANC­E FOCUS

The Frequency polo is part of Ping’s Sensorcool collection, a fabric technology that seeks to prevent discomfort by drawing perspirati­on away from the body to keep you dry.

Sensorcool enhances breathabil­ity too, while the four-way stretch properties of the fabric respond to the body’s requiremen­ts and the demands of the game by stretching and moving with fluidity and no friction. This means you can swing as hard as you want, safe in the knowledge that your apparel won’t hold you back.

It’s a crease-resistant fabric as well, so you can slip it on and be ready to go immediatel­y, even if it has been packed away untidily for a while. A concealed placket ensures the pattern remains uninterrup­ted across the chest, with a concealed button-down collar topping off the stylish look.

The Frequency is available in navy and silver and offers a distinctly modern take on a piece of Ping’s history that will help you look the part out on the course this season.
