Description
The Babolat VS Original Overgrip is one of the thinnest tennis overgrips on the market, at roughly 0.40mm, built for players who want to feel the handle rather than thick padding between their hand and racquet. Sold as a set of 3, it combines a dry, absorbent surface with minimal bulk, making it a popular choice for players who prioritize feel and control on every shot.
ULTRA-THIN FOR MAXIMUM FEEL
Overgrip thickness directly affects how your racquet plays. At around 0.40mm, this thin tennis grip adds barely any bulk to the handle, so it preserves your racquet’s original grip size, balance, and handle bevels. You get maximum feedback on every shot and keep the exact feel you built your game around, which is why thin grips are favored by players who rely on touch and precision.
DRY FEEL WITH HIGH SWEAT ABSORPTION
A Non-Woven Layer That Keeps Hands Dry
The defining feature of this grip is its non-woven surface, which absorbs perspiration quickly to keep your hand dry through long points. Rather than relying on a sticky, tacky finish, this dry overgrip manages moisture so the racquet stays secure even as play heats up. That makes it a dependable option for humid Indian court conditions and extended sessions where sweat builds up.
Smooth, Low-Tack Surface
The surface is smooth and low in tackiness, which lets you shift your grip naturally during a rally without fighting a sticky feel. Players who change grips between forehand, backhand, and volleys often prefer this freedom of movement over a locked-in tacky surface, while still getting a secure, confident hold.
SET OF 3 FOR PRACTICAL VALUE
This pack includes three overgrips, which suits the way most players actually use them. You can grip multiple racquets with a matching feel, keep fresh grips ready as older ones wear, and always have a spare in your bag. Most players replace overgrips every one to two weeks depending on how often they play, so a babolat overgrip set of 3 keeps you covered for several weeks and lowers the per-grip cost compared to singles.
HOW TO APPLY YOUR OVERGRIP
Start by cleaning the handle to remove any old residue. Begin at the butt cap with the adhesive strip down at a slight angle, then wrap upward with a small overlap of about an eighth of an inch for full coverage. Keep the tension consistent, not too tight or too loose, and finish near the top with the provided finishing tape. Stretching the grip slightly as you wrap gives a tighter, more secure finish.
WHO THIS OVERGRIP IS FOR
The VS Original suits players who want maximum feel and a dry, secure hold. Advanced and competitive players who prioritize touch over cushioning will get the most from it, as will players whose hands sweat during play and need reliable moisture management. It fits standard and extra-long racquets of any brand, so it works as a universal grip regardless of the frame you play with.
