    I'll try not to pull my ecofreak card on this one.

    Regardless, I'd be interested to know how long-lasting they are.

    Babola and Prince have these leather grips. I have them on my old racket, they feel pretty nice, but you do need to warm up with a little bit of sweat in order to get grip. Touch and feel is excellent, but it is definitely not for everyone.

    I think rubber grips are just more comfortable for me and won't slip as i smash.Anyway,are fur grips good?After you had finished a game,small fur sticked to your hand.However,fur grips are cheap and that's why the efffects are not that worth it.Rubber grips are more effective and its worth it.Trust me.
