Sport and Pro-Light models offer new fabrications, sleek designs, thinner feel
(GREENVILLE, SC) – KENTWOOL – the 171-year-old, family-owned American textile innovator – announces its KW Series Sport and Pro-Light performance socks featuring new technical fabrications and updated aesthetics are now available at www.kentwoolsocks.com.
Both Sport and Pro-Light showcase a sleek silhouette that incorporates fresh design details and are crafted from a 50/50 blend of the brand’s superfine merino wool and bamboo for a soft hand and advanced moisture wicking. Sport appeals to those who prefer the gauge of the brand’s Tour Profile, while the Pro-Light is constructed from fine knit for golfers seeking a thinner in-shoe feel.
“As a leading textile company, we are uniquely positioned to develop materials that push the envelope of performance,” says Mark Kent, President and CEO of KENTWOOL. “Sport and Pro-Light are examples of using the latest fiber technologies to take comfort, energy and blister protection to the next level.”
Made in the USA and retailing for $20.95, the Sport and Pro-Light are available for men and women in a variety of color combinations. Like all KENTWOOL socks, they boast superior moisture management, odor resistance, durability and a 100-percent blister-free guarantee.
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 helping reduce injury risk. The KW Series Pro-Light and Sport models join the existing KENTWOOL range which includes the Tour Profile, Low Profile, Tour Standard, The Graduate compression and 19th Hole designs.
KENTWOOL socks are trusted in competition by scores of Tour stars, including Bubba Watson, Matt Kuchar, Brandt Snedeker, Jonathan Byrd, Beatriz Recari, 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.
