8 Out of the Top 10 Finishers Wear Softspikes-Brand Cleats
Gaithersburg, Maryland, August 7, 2006 â?¦ As it celebrates 10 consecutive seasons as the #1 Cleat on the PGA TOUR, and backed by 160 PGA TOUR wins, Softspikes® brand cleats, made by PrideSports, the world’s leading cleat company, once again enjoyed a banner weekend, as 8 out of the Top 10 finishers at the Buick Open wore Softspikes.
"We take great pride in knowing that most of the players on TOUR prefer Softspikes over any other cleat brand," said Dan Tilton, Vice President of Sales, PrideSports. "However, when you dominate a leaderboard like we did at the Buick Open, it further validates the performance features of our cleats."
Leading the way for Softspikes at the Buick Open was Pulsarâ?¢, the #1 Cleat on TOUR. Pulsar features the Company’s proprietary Reactive Comfort Technologyâ?¢, which 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.
