BRENTWOOD, Tenn., February 14, 2012 … Softspikes®, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 Cleat in Golf, swept the board this weekend at the AT&T Pebble Beach National Pro-Am with 13 out the top 15 finishers donning Softspikes/Pridesports. 64% of the plastic cleat field belonged to Softspikes/ PrideSports, with Cyclone earning it’s second win for 2012.
Both Cyclone and Softspikes/PrideSports’ PINS insert system had a huge weekend, with the two collectively clenching 9 of the top 12 plastic cleat finishes. These two cleats have come to be a permanent staple on tour, showing up in the top 10 of nearly every event each weekend.
“Our PINS insert system places players 32% lower to the ground,” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “This can make a huge difference in a player’s balance and consistency of their swing. With two additional shoe manufactures adapting this technology in 2012, we look for even more wins to come.”
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.
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.
