- The role of soft gluons in inclusive collinear parton densities as well as in Transverse Momentum Dependent (TMD) parton densities is discussed. Applying the Parton-Branching (PBM) method, the so-called non-perturbative Sudakov form factor could be identified with the integration range $z \to 1$, which is neglected in collinear parton shower approaches. The importance of soft gluons could be shown by investigating the transverse momentum spectrum of Drell-Yan lepton pairs, leading to a width of the intrinsic-$k_T$ distribution which is independent on $\sqrt{s}$ , in contrast to what is observed in parton shower approaches. The reason for this behavior is traced back to the non-perturbative Sudakov form factor. The role of soft gluons for observable hadron spectra is discussed and shown to be negligible. This talk is dedicated to the memory of S. Jadach.
