“To be associated with such a world-class event as the RE/MAX World Long Drive Championship is a tremendous honor and opportunity for us,” said Bagher Pirouz begin_of_the_skype_highlighting     end_of_the_skype_highlighting, founder and chief executive officer of HIRZL. “We are actively marketing our HIRZL brand into the USA and Canada and this event will certainly help us achieve increased awareness and visibility for our HIRZL golf glove.”

Initially introduced throughout Europe in 2008, the HIRZL brand of high performance leather golf gloves is making its debut in North America through carefully selected golf and sporting goods retailers, custom club makers and golf courses that exemplify the brand’s premier quality and performance characteristics.

Powerful innovation lies at the heart of the HIRZL brand, backed by HIRZL-owned formulas and techniques. Specialized tanning processes, invented by HIRZL, are 8 times more extensive than usual procedures. The ultra-strong kangaroo palm leather won’t crack or lose functionality even after extensive use, staying soft and wearable up to 4 times longer than conventional gloves. 

“In addition to our unique tanning procedures, HIRZL golf gloves use GRIPPP™ Technology, a process developed by the HIRZL product development team, providing unparalleled levels of grip and control,” stated Mr. Pirouz. “As a result, HIRZL gloves deliver 3 times more grip in dry conditions and 5 times more in wet or severe weather conditions than other leading brands of gloves.”

HIRZL is available in two primary models, the TRUST Feel and the TRUST Control. The Feel model uses thin palm leather for superior performance that is ideally suited for the low handicap player, while the TRUST Control uses a patterned leather palm that provides extra grip suited for mid to higher handicap golfers. Both brands are available in Men’s and Ladies models, in Right and Left hand and in sizes Small, Medium and Large for Women and sizes Small, Medium, Medium Large, Large and X-Large for Men. The suggested retail price is $28.99 and most retailers have a street price of $24.99.
