SEATTLE, Aug. 8, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Tommy Bahama announces the expansion of the highly successful Tommy Bahama Collegiate Series for the 2018 season. The new collection includes over 70 of the top universities across the country, as well as the addition of women's styles. Designed to appeal to students, alumni and multigenerational families, the Tommy Bahama Collegiate Series features university logoed polo shirts, camp shirts, half-zip pullovers and full-zip jackets in college colors. The success of the collaboration, and its expansion into additional schools and women's product is due to the combination of high quality Tommy Bahama product and signature styles along with the appeal of the aloha spirit and school pride offered in this truly unique collection. Additional schools will be added throughout the year.
"The response to the Tommy Bahama Collegiate Series has been amazing and it just keeps growing," says Doug Wood, CEO of Tommy Bahama. "The opportunity to expand our upscale fan apparel to women and even more colleges shows a real desire for quality product that can be worn beyond game day."
The Tommy Bahama Collegiate Series features some of the brand's signature styles in a range of college colors and details, each embroidered with the school's logo. New this season is the women's collection, featuring flattering new styles: the Floral Victory Tee, a fun casual knit shirt in a fading floral print and university logo to show your school pride; the Sea Glass Breezer, a sleeveless button down that provides a fresh look; and the Winning Streak Full-Zip, a long sleeve zip front jacket that makes it easy to show support for your favorite college.
In addition to the new styles offered for women, the men's selection continues to grow as well to provide the signature island spirit and great Tommy Bahama quality. The men's styles now include the Parque Polo, a festive tropical print polo shirt with university logo and the Polo Rico, a horizontal striped polo shirt in school colors with a logo on the left chest. The camp shirt options have now expanded to include the Fuego Floral, a rich floral print rendered in college colors as well as the Hula Oasis, a classic solid camp shirt in school colors with logo on the left chest.
