Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand, is the most worn brand among weekend events
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., May 2, 2011 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat on TOUR, dominated PGA Tour events in Zurich and Georgia with nearly 70% of the overall plastic cleat field at both events. Softspikes was also worn by the winner of the AVNET LPGA Classic.
More than half of the top 30 finishers at the Zurich Classic and the South Georgia Classic were wearing Softspikes-brand cleats. Softspikes’ Pulsar and Cyclone cleats were two of the most seen cleat models in play this weekend with Pulsar claiming another Top 5 at the Zurich Classic.
“We are very proud to be the dominant cleat at all three weekend events,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “Softspikes’ growing presence on both the PGA and LPGA Tour is a good indicator of our brand’s success.”
Softspikes’ patented Dynamic Cleat Technology allows its cleats to be responsive to all terrains – Tee Boxes, Fairways, Roughs, Greens, etc – providing confidence on every swing of the club. In other words, longer drives, better iron shots and lower scores. For more information on Softspikes, please visit www.softspikes.com.

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.
