About PUMA Golf
PUMA Golf
knows competition; in fact, their company is founded on it. The PUMA brand first came into being when
Rudolf Dassler—brother of Adidas namesake Adi Dassler—parted ways with his brother’s company, to see how he could
fare on his own.
PUMA is best known for producing high quality gear and shoes, in both athletic and athleisure styles.The German
company has been around since 1948, when it split from Adidas. GlobalGolf is happy to carry all the top styles PUMA
Golf has to offer.
PUMA is a relative newcomer to the golf equipment industry. The sports and leisure brand had just one employee in
their Golf Division when it first opened in 2005.
One of PUMA Golf’s first major milestones was the acquisition of Cobra Golf
in 2010. Cobra, founded in California in
1973, has a long history of innovative and unique golf equipment. Working together, Cobra and PUMA Golf help players
get the most out of the game and look good while doing it.
The brand saw a huge increase in popularity after sponsored player Rickie Fowler won the PGA Tour’s Rookie of the
Year in 2010. Over the last decade, Rickie’s signature Sunday orange PUMA gear has become a staple of the Tour. He’s
even collaborated with the company to design his own collection and eye-catching high-top golf shoes. With Rickie’s
help, PUMA Golf has become industry leaders in athleisure wear, golf shoes and accessories.
