New York, NY- September 15th, 2006: Jordache Ltd. has signed a licensing agreement with United Legwear Co. to manufacture and sell socks and tights for men, women and children under the U.S. Polo Assn. label.
The Spring 2007 collection includes casual and athletic silhouettes featuring a range of novelty embroideries, screen prints, rugby stripes and solids. A strong primary color palette and brand embellishments reflect the U.S. Polo Assn. Spring ’07 apparel offering.
 According to Cliff Lelonek, President and CEO of U.S. Polo Assn., “Legwear is a natural extension of the overall lifestyle concept we’ve envisioned for U.S. Polo Assn. We are fully confident that our partnership with United Legwear in this venture is a well-chosen next-step in the evolution of the brand and its long range success.”
Several sports-casual legwear styles for U.S. Polo Assn. will incorporate the double-horseman logo. The silhouettes range from low-cut, to crews; some styles have added cushioning in the foot for a sports-inspired design. The children’s collection, available only in multi-packs, will feature colorful spring brights that tie back to the sportswear.
United Legwear Co., a division of Shalom International Corporation, manufactures legwear, cold weather hats, gloves, scarves and accessories under the Sketchers and Puma labels.
