New Kid on the Block: KTO, the Luxury Brand of Children's Golf Apparel and Accessories is Ready to Tee Off for Spring
Kids-Tee-Off are the makers of the KTO brand of premium apparel and accessories for junior golfers 5 to 12 years of age. This technologically advanced brand of clothing offers Tinofast® UV protection and Ultrafil® moisture management features on its shirts and Teflon® Dual Action stain ‘resist and release’ treatment on its shorts.
(PRWEB) March 12, 2006 -- Kids-Tee-Off is the ‘new player’ meeting the growing needs of a new generation of young golfers. The introduction of the Kids-Tee-Off (KTO) brand signals the fact that children’s luxury golf clothing has finally arrived. No longer a mirror image of the type of clothing grown men or fathers wear, Kids-Tee-Off aims to bring high-end craftsmanship, youthful identity and a feeling of fun, qualities with which young aspiring golfers—boys and girls—aim to be associated.
“Our mission is to make clothing and accessories that help protect kids at play while showing that quality and fashion can be appreciated by juniors,” states Pamela Wigglesworth, Managing Director of Kids-Tee-Off Pte Ltd., a Singapore-registered company specializing in apparel and accessories for junior golfers 5 to 12 years of age. “We also address the needs of today’s busy parent by offering a one-stop-shop concept with a full line of coordinated tops, bottoms and accessories. For parents, it saves them time by taking the guess work out of outfitting their child.”
By “protect,” Wigglesworth refers to Tinofast®, a UV protective treatment in KTO’s clothing, which protects young skin against the harmful effects of excessive sunlight, as well as Ultraphil® Moisture Management, which wicks perspiration away from the body, keeping the child drier and more comfortable. While most sun-protective clothing has UPF ratings of 20, Tinofast® can provide a UPF factor of up to 50 depending on the fabric and color, meaning that only 1/50th of harmful UV rays can pass through the garment. “In addition to making sure kids wear sunscreen with a high SPF before going outdoors, parents should consider buying clothing that offers an extra layer of protection against ultraviolet radiation, which can cause sunburn but may also lead to lasting skin damage and, possibly, skin cancer.

- shorts and skorts: made of 100% cotton twill, they are treated with AdvancedTeflon® stain ‘resist and release’, which allow stains to come out easily in the wash and prevent wet spills from being absorbed by beading and rolling right off the surface.

Another great feature about KTO clothing is that, while stylish, it is still versatile enough for boys and girls to wear both on and off the course. When the consumer purchases the KTO brand they are actually buying the safe and leisured family lifestyle that the KTO brand represents.
Consumers who do not have a retail store in their area can log onto the Kids-Tee-Off website and purchase the KTO collection from the e-commerce store. Kids-Tee-Off has a distribution center in New York which services the continental United States, Canada, Central & South America, and another in Singapore which handles the distribution for Asia, Australia and Europe.
