Traction Benefits From Softspikes’ Dynamic Cleat Technology Were Also Utilized By 5 Of The Top 8 Finishers At The Stanford St. Jude Championship
Brentwood, Tennessee, June 10, 2008 … PrideSports, maker of Softspikes® golf cleats – the world’s best selling cleat brand, and Fast-Twist™ – the #1 insert system on the PGA TOUR, had another great weekend on both the women’s and men’s professional golf tours, as the winners of the McDonalds’ LPGA Championship and the Nationwide Rex Hospital Open, benefited from unmatched traction provided by Softspikes dynamic cleat technology.
In addition, on the PGA TOUR, 5 of the Top 8 finishers at the Stanford St. Jude Championship, who chose to wear plastic cleats, wore Softspikes brand cleats.
“Pulsar and Black Widow cleats continue to be an unmatched combination on Tour, thanks to the performance benefits of Softspikes’ proprietary Dynamic Cleat Technology,” said Joe Zeller, President, PrideSports. “Professional golfers know they are getting the best technology available when they place Pulsar or Black Widow cleats into their Fast-Twist Insert System.”
In addition to the Company’s plastic cleat domination, PrideSports patented Fast-Twist™ Insert System was featured in more than 85% of the shoes worn by players during the PGA TOUR’s Stanford St. Jude Championship. The #1 insert system on the PGA TOUR, Fast-Twist is the overwhelming choice by golf footwear manufacturers, as 8 out of the top 10 leading companies utilize the revolutionary golf cleat insert system as original equipment, including market leader FootJoy, as well as adidas, Bite, Bridgestone, Callaway, Etonic and Oakley.
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.
