Slazenger Heritage Collection - Modern Classics

Forget about that rascal Tiger, Let’s talk about a real golfing legend, Seve Ballesteros.
In his day, on a par – heh! – with no other, the man was (and is) a God. When I was a young boy, I briefly met him. I asked for an autograph, he carried on walking but took my tournament booklet like he was taking a relay runners baton.
A quick scribble, and without looking back, did the reverse relay move. The handover was smooth. I had his autograph and he walked on. Part of me felt snubbed by this, he could have said hello.
His saving grace that day was his outfit. Seve was Slazenger through and through. Representing a driven quality and determination to be the best, it was only right he wore the Iconic Slazenger.
The Slazenger Autumn/ Winter 2010 collection has several limited edition releases which revive some of Slazenger’s most famous moments, including the jumpers worn by Sean Connery’s James Bond and my mate Seve.
Slazenger Heritage is also reviving one of the most memorable moments in music this Christmas with the release of the blue lambswool cardigan as worn by Bing Crosby in the video for “Little Drummer Boy,” his duet with David Bowie.
The Cardigan, like so many other classics, has come right back into fashion, in fact at the moment, it is bang on trend.
The Wombats who are currently on a world tour have also been wearing the brand: http://www.novafm.com.au/video_the-wombats-vampires-and-wolves-acoustic_107091
I am the proud owner of the Bing Cardigan, it’s rarely off my back. Comfort and cool in one bundle.
