Softspikes/PrideSports fill the leaderboards at PGA & Nationwide tour events
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., March 13, 2012 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, took over The PGA Tour this weekend claiming 63% of the plastic cleat field at The Puerto Rico Open with 13 of the top 16 plastic cleat finishers wearing the brand. Meanwhile, in South America, 15 of the top 20 finishers at the Chile Classic also donned Softspikes/PrideSports.
Out of the top 4 finishers in Chile, 3 were wearing Pulsar, Softspikes’ most popular cleat. Pulsar revolutionized the golf cleat market thanks to its proprietary Dynamic Cleat Technology, which delivers maximum comfort and performance via a 16 component design that reacts to every angle of force exerted by the golfer.
“Pulsar is a cleat that will continue to win for years to come.” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “It shook up the marketplace with it’s release in 2004 and has been a strong contender on Tour ever since.”
Softspikes’ patented Dynamic Cleat Technology allows its cleats to be responsive to all terrains – Tee Boxes, Fairways, Roughs, Greens, etc – providing confidence on every swing of the club. In other words, longer drives, better iron shots and lower scores. For more information on Softspikes, please visit www.softspikes.com.
PrideSports was formed in January 2003 following Pride Manufacturing Company’s purchase of Softspikes, Inc., and its sister company Trisport, Ltd. of England. This acquisition essentially formed the world’s premier golf accessories company, as Pride and Softspikes are the world’s leading golf tee and golf cleat lines, respectively. Today, PrideSports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
