Nashville, TN, August 27, 2007 â?¦ PrideSports, maker of Softspikes® and the world’s leading manufacturer of golf cleats, continued its TOUR dominance this weekend as nearly 70% of the plastic cleat wearing field at The Barclays Classic chose to wear Softspikes brand cleats. Additionally, Softspikes dominated the field at the US Amateur, as nearly 75% of the field outfitted in plastic cleats chose to wear Softspikes brand cleats, and the winner of the US Amateur wore BlackWidow, the # 1 selling cleat model in the world.
For 2007, PrideSports’ plastic cleats, including Pulsar, have been used by the winner of 17 out of 21 total PGA TOUR events. In addition, PrideSports’ plastic cleats have been #1 on the PGA TOUR for 11 consecutive seasons, led by Pulsarâ?¢ and complemented by BlackWidowâ?¢, the #1 selling cleat model in the world.
Pulsarâ?¢ 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.
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.
