Round-up review: our score and verdict are based on published specs and reviews from across the web, not our own play-testing yet.
Solinco’s Wonder Grip is a soft, tacky 0.6 mm polyurethane overgrip for players who want the racket glued to the hand when swinging big. It suits dry-handed baseliners who prefer sticky over absorbent, and it is one of the cheapest three-packs on sale in the UK.
In the hand
Tennisnerd ranks it fifth in its current top five overgrips, behind Tecnifibre Contact Pro, Tourna Grip XL, Head Xtreme Soft and Wilson Pro, and picks it out for players who want a stickier grip. The tack is “immediately apparent” when swinging from the baseline, and the stretchy, cushioned surface is comfortable rather than gluey. Solinco quotes solid moisture absorption, but this is a tacky grip at heart and sweat isn’t what it is built for.
How long it lasts
Tennisnerd calls durability decent, without the multi-day stamina of a Yonex Super Grap. One Tennis Warehouse reviewer found it wouldn’t stay put over a leather base grip and swapped it out within minutes, which never happened with Wilson Pro or Yonex. Over a standard synthetic base it stays where you wrap it. White is the only colour in 3, 12 and 30 packs; other colours come in single wraps or mixed jars.
Key specs
- Type Tacky, soft
- Material Polyurethane
- Thickness 0.6 mm
- Pack 3 wraps, white

Verdict
A cheap, very tacky grip worth a three-pack if you like sticky and your hands stay dry. Heavy sweaters should stick with Tourna or Super Grap.
