(Ft. Lauderdale, FL) – Orca Golf Bags, the only women-owned design and build golf bag company in the United States, has launched the completely updated and more stylish Orca Pod. A soft-covered case, the "pod" like valuables case is used to protect and house not only one’s golf glove, but also provide a secure and dry place to protect and retrieve one’s cell phone, sunglasses and cash.

The Orca Pod 2.0 is covered with high quality water-resistant Cabretta leather, whereas the original was a nylon model, and it now features a suede insert to provide a soft, protective area for items like cell phones and sunglasses. Pod 2.0 also features more attractive badging on the front cover and high-durability zipper pulls. The ORCA Pod™ easily slides into one’s long side pocket of a golf bag. As with any of Orca’s products, the POD 2.0 can be customized, and it makes a unique and relatively inexpensive for sale at golf course pro shops and tee gifts for charity events, pro-ams and corporate outings. Large-quantity pricing is available starting at just a dozen units.
The Orca Pod makes a perfect holiday gift for every golfer and is being launched with a special retail price of $56 which is 20% off the normal sticker. The Orca Pod comes with a high-end, championship quality golf glove made of the same Cabretta leather as and virtually indistinguishable from “big brand” gloves. The Orca Pod can be ordered on the Orca Golf Bags website and shipped in time for stuffing stockings if ordered by Friday, December 18.

“To be honest, we designed the POD out of frustration,” said Orca CEO Erica Bennett. She continued, “We watched a client dig into his Orca golf bag to find his glove and when he finally found it, it was all beat up and crusty; barely worth wearing. That scene didn’t quite fit with the gorgeous bag we just designed for him. Plus, golf gloves aren’t cheap, and we thought it deserved more respect. So, we invented the Orca Pod so golfers can have a proper way to store their gloves when not in use – it makes the glove easy to find, keeps it fresh and adds to its shelf life. When one is playing, the Orca Pod doubles as a place to safely store one’s important personal items – so you don’t have to fish for those at the end of the round.”
