After a successful in-store test of Ironclad's General Utility(TM)
glove in its lawn and garden section, the retailer has chosen two of
Ironclad's cold weather glove styles, the Cold Condition(R) and the
Summit(TM), for a seasonal promotion. The retailer operates over 1,000
stores in 49 states, and these Ironclad glove styles will be available in
stores located in colder areas. The retailer is taking part in Ironclad's
added-value winter promotion, in which the Cold Condition(R) glove will be
bundled with a branded winter cap designed for them by Ironclad.
"We believe this seasonal promotion with this dominant national
retailer is a strong endorsement of the quality and functionality of our
task-specific gloves," said Ed Jaeger, President and CEO of Ironclad
Performance Wear. "Every glove Ironclad sells includes a user response card
where we gather valuable customer contact information and feedback.
Attesting to the power of the Ironclad brand, customers of this home
improvement retailer responded with requests for a larger variety of our
gloves. We are excited to introduce them to other Ironclad products, and we
will continue to use added-value promotions to drive customer demand for
our high-performance gloves and apparel."
