G-III to Open Calvin Klein Performance Stores in U.S. and China

The product offering will continue to be athletic and performance wear that utilizes materials and designs that enhance the lifestyle associated with women’s sports and activities, including yoga, running, tennis, and biking. The line features items rendered in authentic performance fabrics and is finished with detailing appropriate for each of those classifications. The products to be offered in the retail stores will include pants, capris, shorts, tank tops, t shirts, and hooded jackets.

Morris Goldfarb, chairman and chief executive officer of G-III Apparel Group, commented, “We believe that there is an excellent opportunity to leverage the power and recognition of the Calvin Klein brand to bring the performance line to a global audience of consumers. Initially, we will launch in the United States and China. We are very excited about the potential to roll these stores out in countries around the world.”
