An overgrip is a thin wrap that goes directly over the base grip on your pickleball paddle handle. It's one of the smallest changes you can make to your setup, and one that most players feel immediately.

The right pickleball overgrip comes down to a few things: how tacky you want it, how much sweat absorption you need, and your preferred thickness. Players with sweaty hands usually prefer a dry, absorbent wrap that holds up through longer matches. Others want a tacky feel that locks the paddle in place and adds control on fast shots.

Thickness is worth paying attention to. A thicker overgrip adds comfort and slightly changes the way the handle feels. A thinner one keeps things closer to the original grip feel. Test both and see which suits your game.

Available in multiple colors and sold in individual pieces or packs. Replace yours regularly and your paddle will always feel like new.

FAQs

Should you use overgrip on a pickleball paddle?
Yes. Most players who add one stop playing without it. An overgrip improves tack, absorbs sweat, and gives you a more comfortable hold on your paddle handle. If you notice your grip slipping at the end of a long rally, or if your hands tend to get wet during play, it makes a real difference. If you're also shopping for a new setup, check out our pickleball paddles to pair with the right overgrip from the start.

The CRBN DryTec Overgrip suits players who want a dry, absorbent wrap. For maximum tack, the Pickleball Effect Soft Ultra Tac stands out.

What is overgrip for pickleball?
An overgrip is a thin strip of wrap applied over the base grip on your pickleball paddle handle. It refreshes the feel of your paddle, adds tack, and helps absorb moisture during play. Overgrips are easy to replace and much less expensive than changing the base grip itself. They're a simple, low-cost way to keep your paddle performing at its best.

What grip do most professional pickleball players use?
Most competitive players add an overgrip on top of their stock grip for better control and moisture management. A dry overgrip like the CRBN DryTec performs well in fast-paced, sweaty conditions. Those who prefer a tackier hold often go for the Selkirk Tacky Overgrip or the Wilson Anti-Slip Overgrip. Some players also replace their base grip entirely before layering an overgrip on top. The goal is a consistent hold that stays solid through long matches without slipping.
