Just a note to let you know we are all very much in love with your cleats! They are fantastic....for everything, not just golfing! They definitely gave me an advantage over my very competitive brother-in-law,
who quickly questioned what the difference was in my footing, driving AND putting.....I told him it was my secret but then, of course, gave him a package of them, too. Probably my worst mistake but this is a secret I just cannot keep! :) He
e-mailed me yesterday to tell me that he loves them, too, as did my father-in-law, husband and my son. His golf coach has called them revolutionary and will be in touch for an extended supply for all of the team members! LC from

You are right. I followed the instructions and what do you know. They work great. I played a round last weekend and the cleats performed beautifully. I can't believe someone has not brought this idea out before now.WP fromOklahoma

The following FAQ is included on our Testimonial page to provide helpful information for our visitors.
I received a package of your Rede Cleats as a gift and really think this is a great idea, but when I tried a couple of cleats on a shoe as a test, they did not stay on. What am I doing wrong? I want these to work. Help!WP fromOklahoma
WP from Oklahoma ....With any new product, there is a level of understanding which comes from using the product. We know the cleats perform as advertised, and we believe that we have explained how to use them in our directions; however, we may
need to revisit the "HOW TO USE" directions for more clarity. Thanks for your email. Meanwhile, consider the following:
How much adhesive was used on each cleat?For the cleats to bond properly to the shoe an amount of adhesive gel approximately ¼ inch in diameter should be applied to the center of each cleat.
Too little adhesive and the entire base of the cleat and the area of the shoe to which you are attaching the cleat will not be covered and the cleat will fail to bond properly.
Too much adhesive can be messy and take longer to cure. This causes the user to question the bond and he/she may lift the cleats temporarily from the shoe while the adhesive is curing. This can cause the bond
to be weak, and the cleat will prematurely come off
Is there a reasonable amount of flat surface on the shoe where you want to attach the cleat?
Ideally a flat surface is the best location to attach a cleat, but the cleats will bond to shoes if the area selected to attach a cleat is at least 50% flat surface and configured so that the edges of the cleat
are not hanging over a groove or the edge of the shoe. Remember, to remove the cleat you want to first break the seal at the edge of the cleat and then peal the cleat off. If the cleat edge is not bonded to the shoe, breaking the
seal will occur within the first few steps you take.
Any shoe surface which projects out or away from the shoe will not allow the cleat to make contact with the surface, for example, raised dimples or circles, diamonds or other shapes which are not flat across
the surface of each shape. Under such conditions the cleats cannot bond completely and will prematurely come off.
When applying the cleat to the selected location on the shoe was the adhesive spread completely over the entire surface of the base of the cleat and the surface of shoe where the cleat has been attached?
To properly spread the adhesive entirely over both bonding surfaces, the cleat should be pressed firmly against the shoe surface and at the same time turning the cleat to the right and then left several times. This insures that the
bond will be across the entire cleat base.
When this is done properly the adhesive on the shoe surface extends out past the edges of the cleat. This too insures that the bond will be across the entire cleat base.
DO NOT just press the cleat to the shoe. This will not spread the adhesive, resulting in a weak bond, and the cleat will prematurely come off.
Are the shoes wet, covered with dirt or other debris, or have the shoes come in contact with a solvent such as gasoline?
· If when attempting to attach cleat to shoes which are wet, covered with any kind if debris, or have come in contact with gasoline or other solvents, the bond will fail and the cleats will prematurely come
off, or maybe not stick to the shoe at all.
If you experience any difficulties with our cleats we will be more than happy to talk with you about how to achieve the best results on the type of shoes you want to turn into golf shoes. Please telephone us any time between
9 AM and 5 PM Eastern time at 804-758-1608. You can also email us anytime at info@Rede.Golf.com and we will call
you or respond to your email questions.

I wanted to write and thank you for bringing Rede Cleats to the market. I have a foot problem and need to wear special shoes. Your cleats have made a world of difference in my game. When I first started using them some of the
guys in my golf league were quick to poke fun at them. Occasionally I would lose a cleat; one of these jokers would find it on the course and I would hear about it. I just wanted you to know that three of the jokers are now walking the course
because they are using Rede Cleats on shoes they enjoy walking in. It won't be long before everyone comes to know about Rede Cleats and uses them.
Thanks again, Pete , Illinois

Although we are encouraged when hearing of additional uses of our new soft cleat technology, it must be noted that the following comment about the use of Rede Golf Round Savers®
soft cleatsis posted solely as a testimonial from the individual and is not intended to suggest that our products are designed for any purpose other than temporary use while playing golf. Rede Golf
and Rede Cleats make no claim at this time that our products offer the mentioned use or any other benefit other than those stated on our package. We do want to thank Don C from Michigan for taking Rede Cleats along wherever he goes and for
letting us hear from him. You go Guy!
Don C/Michigan.Dear Rede Cleats, Thought you might be interested in this.If it is too cold to golf, at least I can hike with Rede cleats on my boots.
I went hiking with my son Tom in one of the metro parks in Farmington Hills, MI . The temperature was 15 degrees F; the trail was snow covered and hard packed, steep in spots, and in places icy. I was wearing my 20 year old Mephisto hiking
boots with badly worn Gore Tex heels and soles. The hike was not pleasant as I had little traction especially when the trail was steep. Again on Sunday, February 3, 2007, I was on the same trail. The temperature was -5 degrees F, with wind
chill much lower. The trail conditions were the same as before. This time I had Rede cleats on the same boots and my footing was very secure with good traction on the steeps (no cleats came off under these extreme conditions).
Thanks so much.

David Boone,Golf Course Superintendent,PiankatankRiverGolf Club:
I have been in the golf course maintenance business for more than 25 years. With the addition of the newer, improved bent grass greens in the last 10 to 15 years, metal spikes have been replaced with plastic spikes to reduce damage to greens.
This has helped putting quality to a certain extent but it has not solved the problem altogether. Some companies have made more aggressive spikes that are sending us back in the direction of metal spike damage.
After reviewing your product, we put it to the test and found that it decreased injury to greens to the point that there is no impression or mark at all. It also increased stability due to increased surface area contact versus
today's standard spike. This is one of those products that make you wonder why no one had thought of this before. I am a believer and totally endorse your product.

Jimmy Poplin,Director of Golf,PiankatankRiverGolf Club:
I write to you today regarding your Rede Golf Round Savers soft cleats. During my ten years in the golf industry I have seen many products come and go. After experiencing your cleats first hand, I anticipate that Round Savers will create a
large demand for this new technology and change the way golfers of all levels will think about golf shoes.
When I first tried your product, I will admit that I was very biased against it. After I stuck them on a favorite pair of tennis shoes (by the way, I never thought I would ever play golf in tennis shoes) and played the first hole, I literally
stopped on the next tee and said to myself, "I think they have something here!" I noticed, as I hit each shot, that I was comfortable and very stable on the ground. As I played through the round, I noticed as the e's would gather
some dirt, and only a few steps later, the dirt was nowhere to be seen. I distinctively remember looking down, out of habit, to remove any debris and leaves stuck to my shoes, but there were only red e's. Finally, and most importantly, I
watched as I walked on and off each green. I watched as each impression of the e's disappeared from the green and thought how much the wear and tear of the greens would be decreased if everyone wore these spikes! Rede Golf has done well
developing this new soft cleat technology. I can tell a lot of time and effort was expended; it shows. I look forward to the future of golf as Rede Golf brings a new level of comfort to every golfer and, perhaps, more golfers to the game
through this innovative soft cleat.

Joe, Myrtle Beach , SC:
For the past decade I have traveled on business. During that time I have had the opportunity to play many fine golf courses across the country. Unfortunately, on several occasions I was not prepared and was faced with buying an expensive pair
of golf shoes in the pro shop, or passing up a great day on the links. While traveling in Virginia I discovered Rede Golf Round Savers in a pro shop. I can stick these Rede Golf cleats to any shoes I am wearing and I have instant golf shoes.
Now that I have found Rede Golf Round Savers I can enjoy a round of golf anytime, anywhere without having to explain to my wife why I just had to have another pair of golf shoes. Just like it's printed on the the package, now I am
"Always Rede to play". Thank you, Rede Golf.

Michael, Richmond, VA.:
Wow! I just discovered Rede Golf Round Savers. I love all things golf. Unfortunately I have foot and lower back problems which have made it virtually impossible for me to find a comfortable pair of golf shoes. What a relief, I can now wear the
shoes I most enjoy and which support my feet and lower back while I play golf. Thanks Rede Golf. I can now focus on lowering my handicap instead of my lower back.

Mark A, Mathews, VA:
I have played golf for more than 20 years. During that time I have seen many new ideas in equipment that have made the game more fun. Golf shoes have always been a sore spot to me because of the cost and the lack of fashion statement. Although
I own more pairs of golf shoes than I care to mention, since I first tried the new Rede Golf Round Savers on my favorite deck shoes, I can't think of a reason ever to play a round in uncomfortable golf shoes again.

Troy D, Virginia Beach, VA.:
Soft spikes just got better. I can wear my style of shoe on the course without the loss of traction my expensive golf shoes were for. With the new Rede Golf self-adhesive soft spikes I can have instant golf shoes. No more expensive shoes I can
only wear on a golf course. I now play in style and comfort. Everyone should try these new soft spikes, they are great.
