(GREENVILLE, SC) – KENTWOOL – the 170-year-old, family-owned American textile innovator – announces that it will celebrate the season’s first major championship with the return of its limited-edition, Bubba Green Tour Profile performance golf sock.
Watson will again compete during tournament week in this distinctive style ($19.95) which is on sale now through May 16 – or while supplies last – at www.KENTWOOLSocks.com. Crafted from a proprietary blend of fatigue-reducing merino wool and high-tech fibers for superior moisture management, the socks are made in the USA and come with a 100-percent blister-free guarantee.
“Shortly after we introduced this style in 2012 Bubba rocked the socks on his way to that dramatic victory,” says Mark Kent, CEO and President of KENTWOOL. “We just have to bring it back to commemorate that special occasion and we hope to see a repeat performance.”
An authentic southern textile company, KENTWOOL is devoted to helping golfers feel their best with every step. Each pair features WINDspun technology that infuses the fibers with air to provide unrivaled cushioning at micro-stress points along the foot, enhancing comfort and energy levels while reducing injury risk. The full KENTWOOL line includes the new KW Series Pro Light and Sport models, Tour Profile, Low Profile, Tour Standard, The Graduate and 19th Hole designs.
In addition to Watson, KENTWOOL socks are trusted in competition by scores of Tour stars, including Matt Kuchar, Jonathan Byrd, Ryann O’Toole, Peter Jacobsen, Duffy Waldorf, Brendon de Jonge, 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.
