Do grips vary as color varies?

I used to use White, I felt same!!! Black feels very different from White somehow, I don't really like it... And Yellow is kinda like White... Never used Green...

 

i've actually have noticed a difference in the grips as well. i have a blue grip on my AT500 and does it feels totally different from the black grip that i have on my other racket. i've been wondering the whole time maybe its the way i placed the grip on that makes them feel different.

 

Hehe, I like white too... But it gets dirty really easily and it's so obvious, then the grip will look nasty... >_<" I guess I'll have to wash my hands every time before I play badminton... Haha...

 

There are following colors in Super Grap generally so far:

Pink, Red, Neon Green, Green, Blue, Light Blue, Dark Blue, Navy Blue, White, Purple, Dark Purple, Yellow, Orange, Black.

I own most of them in either thin or thick version and my inventory never drop below 20 packs, and for years of usages so far, I like White and Black the best.

Reason: I like basics stuff Something that is too shining is just not my style, although my gf has a complete different taste than me....... I don't notice much of significant differences in difference in colors. Black or Purple or Blue grips last pretty much the same.

 

I avoid black grips.
It absorbs heat from my hand and warms up, which then causes my hand to sweat more and thus lose grip.

 

I thought the albedo effect (the one on absorbing heat because of the colour) only worked on light energy? Unless i was taught wrong..........then i have to sue my teachers

P.S. Greed looks the best, cause no one uses it

 

For towel grips, there is a definite difference in quality between light and dark coloured grips. The black grips are frequently much less soft than the white ones.

 

u have sensitive girly hands

 

it wasnt meant to demean you, girls like sensitive guys u know

 

new_guy, i had a look into this and you are......right.

I tried several color yonex grap for my racquets and it's true the white grip felt the softest and most supple. In order, next softest is yellow, then lavender, then orange, and then lime (that's all the color grap i had to test with). You all can see the trend here

As for a technical reason, the raw ingredients are first bleached before adding color dye/pigment for product consistency. White is bleached color and no dye/pigment is required. When color is added, the dye/pigment molecules bind with the foam matrix molecules and make it less supple. The darker the color, the more dye/pigments are used to achieve desired color. I'm not sure if individual color dye/pigment has unique affinity to bind with the synethetic foam/rubber compound. I'm assuming dark colored grip requiring more dye/pigment to achieve its final color.

Same reason explains Gollum's comment about white versus colored towel grips.
