MONROE, Mich., Sept. 27, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Just in time for the World Series, and college football, La-Z-Boy announces the launch of a new "must have" game day accessory, XZipit® by La-Z-Boy® recliners. These new recliners allow sports fans to show their team spirit by showcasing their favorite team logos and mascots. The XZipit® team logo panels zip in and out of the seat back, with a patented hidden zipper design for easy customization and an endless array of possible looks or seasonal changes, offering sports fanatics the best seats in the house.

One sports panel comes with the recliner and fans can purchase additional panels from xzipitpanels.com to outfit their game day chairs and display loyalty for their favorite baseball, professional and collegiate teams – and after the final buzzer, the panels can be unzipped in seconds to transform the recliners back to an everyday look.

XZipit panels are available in MLB, NBA, NHL NASCAR, MLS and College logos as well as symbols, military, outdoor collection and other lifestyle designs. Now, devoted fans can equip their family room with a look worthy of the team spirit – and once the season is over, a quick removal of the panel transforms the home back from game-day comfort to everyday coziness.

Because comfort and style preferences vary as widely as sports team loyalties, XZipit® by La-Z-Boy® recliners come with offerings in two different scales: "Champ," a medium-scale recliner, and "Victor," a large-scale recliner.

XZipit® by La-Z-Boy® recliners can be found at La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries®, La-Z-Boy Comfort Studio® dealers and anywhere La-Z-Boy furniture is sold or on http://www.la-z-boy.com.
