Maui and Sons Announces Holiday ’22 Collaboration With Corona®
Maui and Sons x Corona Holiday '22 Collection

Maui and Sons \/ Corona collaborate on an exclusive limited-edition capsule collection celebrating Living the Fine Life and the spirit of Aloha.

LOS ANGELES - November 1, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

Maui and Sons / Corona collaborate on a limited-edition capsule collection celebrating Living the Fine Life and the spirit of Aloha—blending luxury loungewear with Hawaiian style. Inspired by the signature beach robes and paradisiac views of Corona's branding, the collection includes Terry fabric robes and lounge sets designed in an array of oceanic hues. All pieces in the collection are made in Los Angeles, California. Launching on November 4, 2022, at 10 a.m. PDT exclusively @ mauiandsons.com (IG: @mauiandsons) and coronausa.com (IG: coronausa)

The collection includes a Hawaiian shirt ($88.00), boardshort ($68.00), and robe ($128) featuring the collection's signature design, "Palm Fusion" — with cascades of Hawaiian hibiscus and palm leaves, adorned with Maui and Sons' signature shark logo and the Corona logo in vibrant, oceanic hues; a luxury lounge set in blue Terry toweling (top: $68, bottom: $78); and a t-shirt ($34) with Maui and Sons' vintage inspired "Enjoy" graphic of Sharkman relaxing by the pool, holding a bottle of Corona Extra® Beer, printed in puffer ink. All of which are made in Los Angeles, California.

"Living the fine life is a whole lot more stylish with this limited-edition capsule collection," said Alex Schultz, vice president of brand marketing at Corona. "In addition to the beachside aesthetic, what we love most is the relaxed nature, which aligns with Corona's refreshed perspective. We're pleased to introduce this collaboration with Maui and Sons in time for the holiday season, bringing a beachy perspective to consumers across the country, wherever they celebrate."     

"The conversation started with the Corona team wanting to bring the signature beach robes from the commercials to life for fans. From there, our designers were inspired to create a visual representation of the beachside oasis within that represents the Corona 'fine life', blended with the Aloha spirit of Maui and Sons. The combination of the two perspectives became a collection designed for the spa — to the beach — to poolside — to the home. An all-encompassing collection dedicated to wearers getting some much-needed R&R. We decided to make this a Holiday collection as a symbol of escaping the impending (in many places) cold weather and discovering somewhere bright and optimistic." — Chris Janci, Chief Brand Officer at Maui and Sons

The full collection will be available at https://mauiandsons.com and https://www.coronausa.com — dropping on Nov. 4, 2022, at 10 a.m. PDT.

MELBOURNE, Australia - October 28, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

It's never too early or too late to start learning to skateboard - in fact, the earlier the better, says skateboard expert Twelve Board Store. Choosing the right longboards or skateboards for kids is the key to helping them nail the sport. With a range of skateboard decks and sizes to choose from, it can feel overwhelming to choose the right board for a kid - Twelve Board Store is here to help. 

Twelve Board Store, located in Melbourne, stocks a range of top-quality skateboards, electric skateboards and longboards for every age. Their expert team knows all there is to know about skating and can help parents find the right board for their kids. According to the Twelve Board Store team, kids' skateboards are broken down by size. 7.25-inch boards - called mini boards - are recommended for kids up to the age of five; kids above the age of five all the way up to 17 years old are better suited to a mid-size board, which ranges from 7.3 inches to 7.9 inches. However, teens who have bigger feet or are more advanced skaters may need a full-size board, which measures eight or more inches.

If parents aren't completely sure which size to purchase for their child, the experts at Twelve Board Store recommend always sizing up - after all, kids grow quickly. If parents are still unsure or need more personalised help, they can chat to the Twelve Board Store team in-store or online, or use their simple, online sizing guide. Plus, when parents purchase a board from Twelve Board Store, their child will get two free lessons in the Twelve Board Store Saturday lessons program.

Head in-store or browse online to check out Twelve Board Store's premium range of skateboards today.

SQAIRZ Launches GFP Baseball Shoe and Partners With Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center

SQAIRZ Launches GFP Baseball Shoe and Partners With Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center

As part of its commitment to performance-driven innovation in athletic footwear, SQAIRZ has made its first expansion to a sport other than golf. After a year of testing in partnership with Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center, the custom-designed, performance-focused SQAIRZ GFP baseball turf shoe has already shown the ability to create marked change in a baseball player's game.

WINDHAM, N.H. - October 27, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

SQAIRZ, the footwear company seeing incredible growth in golf shoes through its focus on performance and comfort, announced today the launch of the new SQAIRZ GFP baseball turf shoes and a partnership with Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center. 

SQAIRZ has been making waves in golf with its patented square-toe design, which has been proven to increase balance, consistency, swing speed and distance. In less than three years, SQAIRZ has won on both the PGA Tour and PGA Champions Tour and has been named among the Best Golf Shoes by Golf Digest. As part of its commitment to performance-driven innovation, SQAIRZ has made its first expansion to a sport other than golf. 

After a year of testing in partnership with Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center, the custom-designed, performance-focused SQAIRZ GFP baseball turf shoe has already shown the ability to create marked change in a player's game, impacting running, pitching, fielding, and hitting. Players wearing SQAIRZ at all levels—Major League, Minor League, and high school—showed elevated performance in all areas of the game. On the heels of these incredible results, SQAIRZ has entered into a partnership with Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center to market a SQAIRZ performance shoe honed specifically for baseball. 

"Balance, stability, and ground force production have not been given the attention they deserve in sports," said Robert Winskowicz, founder of SQAIRZ. "Controlling these three performance elements through the right shoe is critical to consistently maximizing your performance in most sports. I am very proud to partner with Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center. Their team of experienced baseball players and coaches have put SQAIRZ through their paces, analyzing their performance in all aspects of the game, whether base running, fielding, pitching, or batting, and we are thrilled with the impressive results." 

"I look at swings at every level of the game, from 10U Travel Ball Players to Major League Baseball All Stars," said Chad Miller, founder of Louisville Slugger Hitting Science Center. "I have never seen a product that has such an amazing impact on a player like the SQAIRZ GFP. With our advanced-level amateur players, we have recorded an average increase of 2.6 mph of exit velocity (approximately 26 feet of distance) when using the SQAIRZ turf shoe versus traditional turf shoes. That is the difference between making a varsity team, getting a college scholarship, or being drafted."

"As a current Major League Baseball Hitting Coordinator I constantly work with hitters and teach them how to use the ground to generate more power and balance through surface area contact," said Dave Hansen, Cincinnati Reds Hitting Coordinator and former MLB slugger. "The SQAIRZ GFP shoe is the most revolutionary and game-changing technology that I have seen in my 31 years of professional baseball playing and coaching career. I have been using the SQAIRZ Turf Shoes in our training sessions with the players in our organization. The instant feedback and results that the SQAIRZ shoes produce are something that I have never seen in baseball."

"Over the past 25 years, I have studied the effects of physical function and footwork and how these two aspects relate to ground reaction forces," said Philip Stotter, MS, CEP, Sports Biomechanist, and MLB Sports Science Consultant. "A poor relationship at the foot level will cause the energy that is used for a movement like a swing or a pitch to leak into compensatory movements and cause an athlete to lose their balance and connection with the ground. Because footwear is the only piece of equipment that stands between a person and the ground, finding the right footwear can be game-changing. Ground reaction in sports is something I test on a daily basis, and what we are finding with SQAIRZ is game-changing."

The new SQAIRZ GFP is available for presale at www.sluggerscience.com, with plans to begin shipping by early 2023. 

About SQAIRZ 

Athletic shoes should be more than mere accessories, they are the foundation of every movement and should be drivers of true performance. The vision for SQAIRZ started on a New England driving range, where a pair of square-toed dress shoes spurred a visual realization. It continued through years of research into ground force reaction, biomechanics, and foot movement. It has culminated in award-winning shoes, now played on Tour, that will help every golfer hit more accurate and powerful shots, and soon to be accelerating performance on baseball diamonds across the country. SQAIRZ is inspired by developing performance-enhancing shoes that will change the shape of your game.

Half of Americans Oppose LIV Golf League, per an October 2022 Voter Survey

Half of Americans Oppose LIV Golf League, per an October 2022 Voter Survey

"This data proves what we've always known: That Americans oppose the Saudi-funded LIV Golf League, and they are willing to vote against politicians who support LIV. That includes Republican voters willing to walk away from President Trump because of his support of Saudi-funded LIV Golf," said Brett Eagleson of 9/11 Justice.

MIAMI - October 26, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

A recently conducted survey of voters in the United States indicates widespread opposition to the LIV Golf League and shows that a large majority of voters would also be less likely to support a candidate for public office who supports the Saudi Arabia-funded LIV Golf league. 

Forty-seven percent of Americans oppose the Saudi Arabian-funded LIV golf league, with only 12% supporting it. Additionally, sixty-four percent of voters oppose former President Trump hosting Saudi Arabia-backed LIV Golf League at his golf clubs in Bedminster, New Jersey, and Doral, Florida, outside Miami.

"This data proves what we've always known: That Americans oppose the Saudi-funded LIV Golf League, and they are willing to vote against politicians who support LIV. That includes Republican voters willing to walk away from President Trump because of his support of Saudi-funded LIV Golf," said Brett Eagleson of 9/11 Justice. "I hope our public leaders take this data to heart. The concerns about Saudi Arabia are real, and they are happening at kitchen tables in the U.S., not just in paneled rooms in Washington."

The poll was conducted by Baselice & Associates, Inc., on Oct. 22-24, 2022, among N=845 voters across the United States. The margin of error to the results of 845 interviews is +/- 3.4 percent at the .95 confidence interval. All results rounded to the nearest whole percentage.

9/11 Family Members, Survivors to Hold Press Conference to Protest Saudi-Funded LIV Golf Series at Trump National Doral Golf Club in Miami

9/11 Family Members, Survivors to Hold Press Conference to Protest Saudi-Funded LIV Golf Series...

"The evidence of Saudi government officials' participation in the 9/11 attacks on America could not be clearer," said 9/11 Justice founder Brett Eagleson, "and this event could not be more insulting."

MIAMI - October 26, 2022 - (Newswire.com)

A group of 9/11 family members and survivors from the organization 9/11 Justice will hold a press conference vocalizing their objections to the Saudi Arabian-funded LIV Golf series and its tournament being held at the nearby Trump National Doral Golf Club on October 28-30.

The 9/11 family members will address their views and contentions, which include:

- The Saudi government's role in supporting the 9/11 terrorist attacks, including about recently declassified FBI investigative documents;
- The implications of Saudi efforts to "sportswash" its egregious past; 
- The willing complicity of professional golfers choosing to take Saudi payouts and look the other way on the country's reported human rights abuses and role in the worst terrorist attacks on American soil.

"As yet another Saudi-funded golf tournament takes place in America this week, Americans must understand that this LIV Golf series, hosted next at Trump Doral, is yet another attempt by the Kingdom to use the beloved game of golf to sportswash its abhorrent behavior and avoid accountability for the murder of my dad and thousands of others," said Brett Eagleson of 9/11 Justice. "The evidence of Saudi government officials' participation in the 9/11 attacks on America could not be clearer, and this event could not be more insulting. That's why we're speaking out and will continue to as the Saudis fund LIV Golf events in America."

Press Conference Details:

When: Thursday, Oct. 27, 2022, 9:00 a.m. ET

Where: Four Points by Sheraton Hotel, 3570 NW 74th Avenue, Miami, FL 33122

Who: Numerous 9/11 family members and survivors who have flown to Miami to express their outrage. Speakers at the press conference and those available for interviews include:

- Brett Eagleson, President of 9/11 Justice and son of John Bruce Eagleson, who was murdered in the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
- Tim Frolich, a 9/11 survivor who was on the 80th floor and was severely injured when the South Tower collapsed.
- Juliette Scauso, daughter of FDNY Hazmat Co. 1 Firefighter Dennis Scauso, who was murdered in the evacuation efforts of the South Tower.
- Dennis McGinley, whose older brother Danny was murdered in the collapse of the WTC South Tower.
