Brentwood, Tennessee, October 27, 2008 … PrideSports, maker of Softspikes cleats, the #1 cleat brand on TOUR, captured yet another weekend victory as the winner of the Nationwide Tour’s Miccosukee Championship wore its Pulsar cleat, the #1 Cleat on TOUR, while 30 of the top 33 finishers also chose to wear PrideSports products. Additionally, PrideSports captured the cleat field on all men’s professional golf tours with a majority wearing its Softspikes’ brand cleats. Furthermore, over 77% of the field at the PGA TOUR’s the Frys.com Open including 23 of the top 29 finishers that chose to wear plastic or metal cleats wore PrideSports products.
In addition to the Company’s cleat domination, PrideSports’ patented Fast-Twist™ Insert System was featured in nearly 85% of the shoes worn by players during the PGA TOUR’s the Frys.com Open. 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.
“Capturing the cleat count and completely dominating the field on every men’s professional golf tour this weekend signifies that players at every level, especially each tour’s top players, trust the performance benefits of Softspikes and PrideSports products,” said Joe Zeller, President, PrideSports.
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.
