Gaithersburg, Maryland, June 12, 2006 â?¦ Softspikes® brand cleats, made by PrideSports, the world’s leading cleat company, netted its 160th career win on Sunday in dominating the leaderboard at the Barclays Classic, highlighted by a victory for the Company’s Pulsar cleat. The victory marks the second win in three weeks for Softspikes on Tour, as the Company celebrates its 10th consecutive season as the #1 Cleat on the PGA TOUR.
"Winning is always a bonus, but it is the continued brand dominance on the PGA TOUR that is the driving force of Softspikes," said Dan Tilton, Vice President of Sales, PrideSports.
Pulsar by Softspikes features the Company’s proprietary Reactive Comfort Technologyâ?¢. Through this technology, Pulsar delivers maximum comfort and performance via a 16 component design that reacts to every angle of force exerted by the golfer. As part of this design, flexor knuckles placed at the flex point on each of Pulsar’s eight legs offers enhanced strength, responsiveness and more than twice the flexibility of any cleat on the market. In addition, reinforced arched webbing between each of Pulsar’s legs delivers instant energy return every time the cleat is compressed. As a result, all of these features combine to produce a cleat offering unmatched stability and comfort.
Softspikes is a division of Pride Sports, which 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, Pride Sports is the world leader in the design and manufacture of cleats, spikes and receptacles for the entire golf footwear industry.
