NEFF Introduces Pro Glove Team
Neff is excited to present the addition of it’s new Glove Team. Halldor Helgason, Eiki Helgason, Sage Kotsenburg and Chris Bradshaw are to join the already stacked Neff Headwear Team Roster that includes the likes of Torstein Horgmo, Scotty Lago, Chas Guldemond, Justin Bennee along with many more.. “We are excited about the direction of our snow team here at Neff. We have competition riders and video part riders but most importantly a group of riders that has fun and looking to progress the sport.†(Mark Copeland, Neff Team Manager)
Neff feels they can add fun, unique flavor to the glove world while offering superior quality and durability. “This year we started with pipe gloves and they blew off the shelves at retail, so out of the gates Neff gloves have been a huge success. We will now offer a full line of gloves to give the kids a chance to rock Neff on their hands to match their heads.†(Shaun Neff, Owner)
What started as just another hustle in 2002, purchasing blank beanies, hats and headbands before marking each with hand-painted logos, Shaun Neff's fledgling headwear brand found notoriety soon after after linking up with various pro snowboarders on the fresh glades of Utah’s picturesque slopes.
Realizing a very particular niche could be satisfied NEFF was born as the first authentic, market-specific headwear company for snow and skate and has since gone global with it’s aspirations. Based in Ventura, California and supported today by some of the biggest names in snowboarding, skateboarding, and surfing not to mention key personalities in music and arts, NEFF continues to spread its roots deeper into youth culture.
