The Nick Hotchkiss Collection, a New York based neckwear design and manufacturing company, confirmed today that its new Golf Umbrellas necktie will be in stores for the Christmas 2006 season.

Golf Umbrellas is the third golf themed necktie produced by The Nick Hotchkiss Collection since its formation in August 2005. The other two ties are named Golf Animals (in recognition of four golf legends with animal nicknames) and Jacket and Jug (in tribute to the US Masters and British Open golf tournaments).

The Golf Umbrellas design includes not only umbrellas with multi-colored canopies but small golf balls raining down as well. The tie will be available in red, orange and fairway green ground colors for Christmas, and gold will be added as the fourth ground color next Spring.
