Authentic Brands Group (Authentic) will partner with Sports Casuals International (SCI), a global sports apparel design and manufacturing company, to expand Reebok's footprint in the golf category. 

Through the partnership, SCI will design, manufacture and distribute Reebok-branded adult performance golf apparel for men and women. This partnership aligns with Reebok's focus on sport and builds on the brand's recent signing of professional golf star, Bryson DeChambeau, and his team, LIV Golf's Crushers GC. 

With SCI as Reebok's apparel partner, the brand welcomes a head-to-toe offering with Reebok Design Group (RDG), the brand's global hub for design, development and innovation, handling the creation and distribution of golf footwear. 

"Reebok's re-entry into performance golf is a significant milestone in the brand's evolution," says Steve Robaire, executive vice president, Reebok, Authentic. "By combining SCI's unmatched expertise in design and manufacturing with Reebok's brand DNA, we're delivering a fresh, disruptive approach to golf performance. This new offering meets the modern golfer's needs and redefines what they can expect from the game, solidifying Reebok's position as a leader in the performance golf market." 

 "Golf is undergoing a cultural transformation and Reebok is uniquely positioned to shake up the sport with products that bring performance, style and accessibility to a broader audience," says Todd Krinsky, chief executive officer, Reebok. "This launch reflects our commitment to diversifying our sport portfolio and serving athletes in new, exciting ways."
