PGA Tour, Champions Tour & LPGA Tour
BRENTWOOD, Tenn., June 15, 2015… Softspikes®/PrideSports, the world’s best-selling golf cleat brand and maker of the #1 cleat and insert system in golf, had an outstanding weekend with four big wins at the PGA Tour FedEx St. Jude Classic, Champions Tour Constellation Energy Players Championship, Web.com Tour Rust-Oleum Championship, and the LPGA Tour KPMG Woman’s PGA Championship. Three of the winners used the PINS insert system with either a Softspikes® or PrideSports cleat. The PINS insert system was developed to reduce height and bring golfers closer to the ground. This revolutionary insert system provides golfers with the immediate feedback required to develop a consistent swing. The additional winner wore the new Softspikes® Silver TornadoTM cleats. This is the newest addition to the fleet of Softspikes® cleats and will be released to the marketplace in late 2015.
“Our PINS insert system has been very popular and you can find it on our StealthTM, Pulsar®, and Black Widow® cleats” said John Hohman, Vice President of Marketing, PrideSports. “We are also excited to see our new Silver TornadoTM cleat on the winners list! With its sleek new design and “Tornado” shape it will help to balance the golfer and move with their swing.”
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.
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.
