(GREENVILLE, SC) – KENTWOOL – the 169-year-old, family-owned American textile innovator – announces the addition of an eye-catching orange style to its range of premium performance socks specifically engineered for golfers.
Available at www.kentwoolsocks.com and leading green grass shops nationwide, the new color will be offered in the Tour Profile model for both sexes and the women’s Low Profile Skinny. Like all KENTWOOL socks, they provide superior moisture wicking, odor control and are backed by a blister-free guarantee. Other colors in the line include black, green, light blue, natural, pink and purple.
“We’re part of the phenomenon of people wanting a broad range of colors to accentuate their outfits and personal style,” says Mark Kent, President and CEO of KENTWOOL. “The demand became even more evident following the massive success of limited-edition, multi-colored socks we produced for Bubba Watson to wear during the Masters and U.S. Open.”
Crafted from a proprietary blend of fine merino wool and high-tech fibers for superior moisture management, the socks feature WINDspun technology. This infuses the fibers with air, creating a micro-climate system that wicks moisture and provides superior odor control. It also provides unrivaled cushioning at micro-stress points along the foot, enhancing comfort and energy levels while reducing injury risk.
Retailing from $19.95 to $24.95, KENTWOOL golf socks are available in the ankle-length Tour and Low Profile models for both genders and mid-calf Tour Standard crafted exclusively for men.
In addition to Watson, KENTWOOL is worn in competition by scores of Tour stars worldwide, including Matt Kuchar, Jonathan Byrd, Ryann O’Toole, Peter Jacobsen, Duffy Waldorf, Brendon de Jonge, Larry Mize, Tom Gillis, Jane Park, Charles Warren, Kevin Johnson, Kristy McPherson, Shasta Averyhardt, Jenny Suh, Sarah Kemp, Jenny Gleason, Meaghan Francella and Jenny Hong.

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. It enables golfers of all abilities to play their best while benefiting from abrasion and fatigue resistance, as well as KENTWOOL’s blister-free guarantee. 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.
