PrideSports’ patented Fast-Twist Insert System, the lightest weight cleat changing system in
golf, was designed to make cleat changing quick and easy. A simple quarter
turn of a cleat wrench deadlocks cleats into place with a double click, while a
reverse quarter turn unlocks the cleats for quick changing. A patented “positive
stop” lets golfers know when the cleat is fully installed.
Today, the Fast-Twist Insert System is the #1 System of choice by Golf Footwear
Manufacturers, and is now worn by over 75% of the players on the PGA TOUR. In
fact, 8 out of the top 10 leading golf shoe companies utilize this revolutionary
golf cleat insert system as original equipment, including market leader FootJoy,
as well as adidas, Bite, Bridgestone, Callaway, Etonic and
Oakley.
Softspikes, the first and foremost name in golf cleat
technology and innovation, were invented in 1993 when a winter metal spike "ban"
campaign was endorsed by several U.S. State Golf Associations. Wanting to offer
golfers an alternative to tennis shoes, Softspikes co-founder Faris McMullin
experimented with various "plug" designs to replace metal spikes. The eventual
design, a plastic, fan-like spiral design, became the industry's first and only
patented non-metal cleat. Little did he know at the time that this design would
revolutionize the golf industry and change the game forever.
Softspikes have gone on to become one of the most popular
golf "inventions" of the 20th century. Offering better traction, more comfort
and improved playing surfaces, there is no question as to why Softspikes are the
number 1 choice of golfers worldwide.
