Here’s my list of the best tennis overgrips in the tennis industry. I've featured a combination of tacky grips and dry grips, so there’s no doubt you’ll be able to find the perfect tennis overgrip no matter what type of player you are.
1. Wilson Pro Comfort Overgrip
A very popular grip on both the ATP and WTA tour, the Wilson Pro Comfort Overgrip is one of the best tennis overgrips on the market and is used by the likes of Roger Federer and Serena Williams.
It’s a “tacky” overgrip designed for players that value comfort over all else and is perfectly suited to most playing conditions. It provides a pretty good level of sweat absorbency and is really easy to apply. It’s also very durable. Despite the tackiness wearing off after a while, the grip still remains very comfortable to play with and doesn’t seem to slip.

2. Tourna Overgrip
The Tourna Overgrip is another one of the most popular overgrips in the world of pro tennis and is used by the likes of the Bryan brothers, Dominic Thiem, John Isner and Pete Sampras.
This is a dry overgrip best suited to players who suffer from sweaty hands or play in hot and humid climates on a regular basis.
It’s not great from a durability perspective as it often begins to fray after a little while of playing and becomes rather uncomfortable to play with.
3. Yonex Super Grap Overgrip
As the name might suggest, the Yonex Super Grap is one of the tackiest overgrips on the market.
It’s often compared to the Wilson Pro Comfort overgrip as it shares most of the same features. It’s a very comfortable and extremely durable grip and has a great level of sweat absorbency. That being said, it’s best for players that don’t sweat too much when they play and are looking for a comfortable and all-round great overgrip.

4. Head Prestige Pro Overgrip
Much like the Wilson Pro Comfort, the Head Prestige Pro overgrip is designed for optimum comfort. It’s a little thicker than most other overgrips, though combined with the tacky surface , the overgrip provides great overall grip and cushioning.
The Head Prestige Pro grip struggles when it comes to sweat absorbency and is not great in hot and humid climates. That being said, it’s a great overgrip for most playing conditions and a fantastic option for those that value comfort more than anything.
5. Babolat VS Original Overgrip
The Babolat VS Original Overgrip is used by the great Rafael Nadal and is one of the thinnest tennis grips on the market.
This dry feel overgrip has a fantastic level of sweat absorbency and is without a doubt one of the best overgrips for players with sweaty hands. It’s also very comfortable thanks to it’s smooth and slightly tacky texture and when compared to a similar grip such as the Tourna Grip, it’s much more durable.
