The Yonex Mesh Grap (AC138-3) in Black is a specialized polyurethane overgrip designed for maximum breathability and sweat dispersion. Unlike standard smooth overgrips, it features a mesh-like perforated hole pattern across its entire surface to prevent moisture buildup during high-intensity play.
Performance Profile
- Absorbency & Airflow: 10/10 — The micro-perforations channel air under your hand and rapidly drain perspiration, keeping the grip dry even in hot, humid court conditions.
- Tackiness & Security: 8/10 — Offers a dry-tacky feel that relies on texture and surface ventilation rather than a heavy sticky film, giving a secure hold without feeling overly gummy.
- Durability: 8/10 — Resistant to tearing along the mesh perforations; the black color conceals dirt and palm oils for a long-lasting clean look.
- Cushioning & Feedback: 7.5/10 — At 0.65 mm thickness, it provides a fraction more cushion than standard Super Grap while preserving sharp handle-bevel awareness.
Best Suited For
- Heavy Sweaters: Players whose hands tend to slip on standard smooth overgrips due to rapid moisture buildup.
- Warm & Humid Climates: Ideal for indoor badminton courts lacking air conditioning or high-humidity summer sessions.
- Control & Touch Players: Excellent for quick finger-position changes where a dry, steady surface prevents micro-slippage during net play.
- Multi-Racquet Use: Cut to length for badminton, but easily extends to fit tennis, squash, or pickleball handles.
