(GREENVILLE, SC) – Buffalo Communications (Buffalo) has been selected by KENTWOOL – the world’s premier textile innovator – to create and implement a publicity and media-relations program for KENTWOOL’s high-performance socks engineered specifically for golfers.
Buffalo will highlight KENTWOOL Golf Socks maximizing foot comfort, increasing energy levels and boosting on-course performance, thanks to fine merino wool resulting from its “WINDspun” air-infused technology.
Made in the USA, KENTWOOL Golf Socks use a proprietary blend of premium, natural and high-tech fibers to create an innovative, micro-climate system for superior moisture management and wicking, as well as odor control.
Enhanced cushioning at strategic micro-stress points along the foot result in unrivaled, abrasion-proof comfort round after round. Sophisticatedly-constructed heel, toe and bridge elements designed with advanced reinforcement provide maximum support and protection against injury.
“KENTWOOL devotes considerable resources to designing and manufacturing the world’s best golf socks,” says Mark Kent, President and CEO of KENTWOOL. “Now it’s time for Buffalo Communications to educate golfers that they will feel and play better wearing KENTWOOL Golf Socks.”
“The mark of premium products, like KENTWOOL Golf Socks, is buy-in from the best Tour players in the world,” says Rich Katz, Managing Director of Buffalo. “Amateur golfers are also switching to KENTWOOL Golf Socks for exceptional, blister-free comfort.”
Bubba Watson wore KENTWOOL “Tour Profile” Golf Socks en route to victory at last month’s Travelers Championship, his first on the PGA Tour. Says Watson: “KENTWOOL socks are the most comfortable socks I’ve ever worn.”
KENTWOOL Golf Socks are worn in competition by many Tour players, including Charles Warren, Kevin Johnson, Jonathan Byrd, Dustin Bray, Kristy McPherson, Sarah Kemp, Jenny Gleason and Anna Scott.
Retailing for $19.95-$24.95, the ankle-length Tour Profile and longer Tour Standard are available in natural and black at select green-grass shops and at www.kentwool.com.
About KENTWOOL
Founded in 1843, KENTWOOL continues to be one of the nation’s longest-running, family-owned textile companies. KENTWOOL is the only company in the western hemisphere – and one of 50 in the world – to receive the Usterized Quality Certification indicating the highest level of quality assurance in yarn production.
An avid golfer, KENTWOOL CEO Mark Kent had the idea to produce the “World’s Best Golf Sock” after standing in the 18th fairway of the BMW Nationwide Tour Pro-Am tending to blistered, bleeding feet instead of concentrating on the eagle opportunity guaranteeing him a spot in the final round.
Born from that moment is golf’s leading, premium merino wool golf sock that enables golfers of all skill levels to play their best while resisting blisters, abrasion and foot fatigue. KENTWOOL utilizes its nearly two-century-old heritage of superiority in textiles to create socks which draw upon wool’s natural and cool performance fibers for moisture management, sheer comfort and other performance-enhancing benefits.
Based in Greenville, SC, all KENTWOOL products are made in the USA.
