#1 Cleat On TOUR And #1 Insert System On TOUR Team-Up For Another Softspikes Win; 163 Career Wins For The World’s #1 Selling Cleat Brand
Gaithersburg, Maryland, August 14, 2006 â?¦ Softspikes®, the #1 Cleat on the PGA TOUR for 10 consecutive seasons, added its 12th win of 2007 and 163rd career victory on TOUR, as the Pulsarâ?¢ cleat, the #1 Cleat on TOUR, teamed-up with PrideSports’ Fast-Twistâ?¢ Insert System, the #1 Golf Cleat Insert System on TOUR, to capture a dual win at The International this past weekend.
"Having the winner of The International wear both our cleat and our insert system made for another great weekend on TOUR for Softspikes," said Dan Tilton, Vice President of Sales, PrideSports. "Having the best players in world, as well as the world’s leading footwear companies, trust our products every week continues to be a driving force of the Softspikes brand."
Leading the way for Softspikes at The International was Pulsarâ?¢, the Company’s proprietary Reactive Comfort Technologyâ?¢ cleat, 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.
PrideSports’ patented Fast-Twistâ?¢ Insert System, the #1 System of Choice by Golf Footwear Manufacturers, is now worn by over 75% of the players on the PGA TOUR. In fact, 8 out of the top 10 leading golf shoe companies utilize the revolutionary golf cleat insert system as original equipment, including market leader FootJoy, as well as adidas, Bite, Bridgestone, Callaway, ECCO, Etonic and Oakley.
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.
