The 2020 Masters has been postponed until November, but Puma Golf has released the gear Rickie Fowler was going to wear this week at Augusta
When the Augusta National Golf Club announced that it was postponing the 2020 Masters because of the coronavirus pandemic, it not only disappointed the players and golf fans around the world, it put many golf manufacturers in an awkward position.
Several companies annually create limited-edition merchandise like golf bags, shoes and apparel that is themed around symbols of the season’s first major. Those products had already been created by the time it was announced that the Masters would not be played in April.
With the tournament now pushed back until the week of November 9, should they make the merchandise available to golf lovers anyway, or hold on to it and try selling it later?
Puma Golf has decided that starting Monday, which would have been the first day of Masters week, it is forging ahead. The company is making the Experience Collection available, including four new polos, hats, shoes and a special bag co-designed by Vessel.

The Eleven, Twelve, Thirteen and Tournament polo shirts ($75 each) are made from Puma’s proprietary Fusionyard Flex fabric that allows for freedom of movement and should help to keep golfers dry and comfortable. The number-named shirts each have a floral print that matches the plant name of that hole at Augusta National, with Eleven have white dogwood blooms, Twelve featuring golden bells flowers and Thirteen covered in azaleas. Those holes comprise Amen Corner, and the Tournament polo’s print features a blend of all three plants.
Puma is also including a limited-edition version of the Poweradapt Caged ($170) and Ignite shoes ($220) in the Tournament print.

Rickie Fowler had planned to wear those shirts and shoes around Augusta National this week, and carry his clubs in this limited-edition Vessel stand bag that was co-created with Cobra Golf ($599). Like the apparel and shoes, it has been given the Tournament print that features white dogwoods, golden bells and azaleas.

Whenever golfers hear the words “bay” and “hill” together, they are going to immediately think of Arnold Palmer, and that’s not going to change. The King passed away in 2016 and no current player pays homage to Palmer, and what he meant to golf, more visibly than Rickie Fowler. In addition to competing in the Arnold Palmer Invitational several times, and again this week, for the past few seasons Fowler has teamed with Cobra-Puma Golf to create limited-edition gear that pays tribute to Palmer.
That tradition continues this week at Bay Hill, and golf fans will have a chance to buy some of the same gear on Puma’s website and at select retailers, Puma has also announced people who make a donation to the Arnold & Winnie Palmer Foundation this week will have a chance to win a trip to the Bay Hill Club and Lodge in Orlando to play the course, tour Palmer’s office and received Fowler-autographed gear.

The new API CobraVessel stand bag ($599) is not only designed to hold anything you might need on the course, according to the company it is 60 percent lighter than a typical stand bag. It is decorated in Arnie Camo, a pattern that was inspired by the iconic Palmer umbrella logo.

The Puma Ignite NXT Arnie Camo shoes ($150) have the same Arnie Camo pattern on the outsole, heel and collar lining while the sock liner inside the shoe features Palmer’s signature.
Puma Proadapt Palmer (Puma)
Palmer loved to fly so much that he got a pilot’s license and logged over 20,000 hours of flight time. The Puma Proadapt Palmer shoes ($250) not only offer lots of lateral stability and traction but honor Palmer’s favorite plane, the Cessna 750 Citation X. On the medial side, N1AP has been added, which was the tail number on Palmer’s plane and his signature has been added to the sock liner.
The Latrobe and Bay Hill hats. (Puma)
Several different hats are also being offered ($35 each), including the Bay Hill and Latrobe hats.
