DORFMAN PACIFIC WILL MARKET JOHN DEERE HEADWEAR

Dorfman Pacific and John Deere signed a licensing deal to market John Deere headwear starting Spring 2010.

Farm and ranch stores in the U.S. and Canada will get Deere sturdy formed hats in straw, canvas, wool felt, nylon, safety materials and Western styles in Shantung and Bangora straw.

“The hats in our new John Deere line are extremely well made and functional - just like everything else that carries the John Deere logo,” said Douglas Highsmith, President and CEO of Dorfman Pacific.

The hats have UPF protection, safety stripes, and even feature a handy mosquito and insect net that fits over the hat brim to protect the head and neck. Each hat has the John Deere trademark, distinguishing its quality, integrity and innovation. Retail prices are $9.00 - $120.00.
