Wilson Comfort overgrip box, 60 overgrips, assorted colours

This is a box of 60 Wilson Comfort overgrips in assorted colours. Each one is a thin, stretchy wrap that goes over the base grip of a tennis or padel racket to give it a fresh, comfortable hold again. With 60 in one box, it is a supply for clubs, coaches, teams and players who rewrap their racket every few sessions.

Who the 60-pack is for

A single player who changes the overgrip once a month will take years to use up a box like this. The format makes sense when many rackets need fresh grips: a coach who rewraps students' rackets before lessons, a club that keeps overgrips at the front desk, a team heading into a tournament weekend, or a group of friends who split one box. The mixed colours are practical here too: in a group, a different colour on each racket makes it easy to tell them apart on the bench.

A simple routine for clubs and teams

Overgrips work best when they are changed before they feel slippery, not after. A routine that is easy to stick to:

• Put a fresh overgrip on before every match or tournament day.
• During normal training weeks, check the grip at the start of each session: if it feels smooth or looks shiny, change it.
• Keep a few overgrips and a pair of scissors in every team bag, so nobody plays with a worn grip because the box is at home.

To wrap, start at the butt cap, overlap each turn slightly with light tension, and finish just below the throat. On padel rackets you will usually cut off the rest before fixing the end.

What to look for in bulk overgrips

The main differences between overgrips are feel and thickness. A soft, slightly tacky surface gives a secure hold for most players; players with very sweaty hands often prefer a drier, more absorbent feel. Thin overgrips change the handle size very little, which matters when several players share the same box. In bulk packs, check whether the colours are fixed or mixed, and how the overgrips are packed, so they stay clean until they are used.

Storage and lifespan

Keep the box closed, dry and out of direct sunlight, since heat and UV light can make the surface of an overgrip less pleasant over time. Once on the racket, an overgrip is a consumable: let the racket air out after play and wipe your hands with a towel between points to get the most out of each one.
