Performance Grips by KontrolFreek are advanced controller grips that utilize a combination of advanced materials that give gamers better grip, support and comfort. Grips are easy to apply and can be repositioned and removed without leaving a sticky residue.
Grips utilize a moisture-wicking combination of advanced proprietary materials to achieve enhanced grip and comfort. Our proprietary, honeycomb-stamped polymer outer layer maximizes grip while optimizing airflow to keep hands cool. The foam cushioning layer creates a feel much like dense memory foam, conforming to your palm and providing more support and comfort the harder you game.
Performance Grips are available in three colors: Nightfall black, Inferno red and Galaxy purple. They are made for PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch Pro Controllers. ***Packaging May Vary***

Frequently Asked Questions
Do these grips actually reduce hand cramping during long gaming sessions?
Yes. The memory-foam-like middle layer cushions the palm and conforms to its shape over time, which spreads pressure more evenly and reduces the soreness that builds up during multi-hour sessions.
Will they help with sweaty palms during warm-weather gaming?
Yes. The moisture-wicking top layer pulls sweat away from the skin so your hands stay drier and your grip stays consistent, even in hot, humid rooms or summer play sessions.
Are these grips comfortable enough to wear for several hours at a time?
Yes. The foam cushioning is soft enough for extended wear, and because the add-on is only about 30 grams, it does not make the DualSense feel heavy or unbalanced during long play.
Do they help with wrist or finger fatigue, or only palm comfort?
Because they stabilize the controller in your hand and reduce the grip force needed to hold it, they indirectly reduce strain across the fingers and wrist, not just the palm.
Can I use these as part of a relaxing post-work gaming wind-down routine?
Yes. Many users report that the cushioned feel makes couch and bedroom gaming sessions feel less physically taxing, which fits well into a calm end-of-day ritual.
Is this a good upgrade for someone with sensitive skin or who finds hard plastic controllers uncomfortable?
Yes. The soft top layer is gentler against the skin than bare plastic, and the breathable fabric helps reduce the sticky, clammy feeling that can bother sensitive skin.
Will the cushioning flatten or lose its softness over time?
The memory-foam-like layer is designed to recover its shape between sessions, so with normal use it should retain its cushioned feel over the life of the product.
Do the grips stay comfortable if my hands are cold, or do they feel harsh?
They feel softer than bare plastic regardless of hand temperature, and the breathable top layer prevents the clammy feeling you can get with some rubber grips.
Is there a break-in period before they feel fully comfortable?
The foam begins conforming to your palm within the first few sessions, so most players find them noticeably more comfortable from the very first use, with peak comfort after a few hours of play.
Will wearing these help me play longer without needing to take breaks?
Many users find they can extend their sessions because the reduced cramping and drier hands mean fewer forced pauses to shake out fatigue or wipe sweat.
How do foam grips compare to rubber grips for long-session comfort?
Rubber grips can feel sticky and trap heat, while the Performance Grips' foam and moisture-wicking top layer stay cooler and softer, which is generally more comfortable for sessions longer than an hour.
Is this better for comfort than wearing gaming gloves?
It is a different approach. Gaming gloves add bulk and warmth, while these grips add cushioning directly to the controller, so you keep the natural feel of the DualSense while reducing pressure.
How do they compare to silicone controller skins for comfort?
Silicone skins add grip but little cushioning and can feel tacky when hands sweat. Performance Grips add real foam padding and a moisture-wicking surface, which most users find more comfortable for long play.
Will the adhesive irritate my skin if I have a sensitivity to adhesives?
The adhesive only contacts the plastic controller shell, not your skin, so it should not cause skin irritation during normal use.
What if the cushioning feels too thick for my hand size?
The 30-gram add-on is designed to feel natural on the standard DualSense, and because the adhesive is repositionable you can adjust placement until the fit feels right for your grip.
Is the surface breathable, or will my hands feel hot under the grip?
The top layer is designed to maximize airflow and wick moisture, so it actively helps your hands stay cooler compared to bare plastic or sealed silicone.
How do I install KontrolFreek Performance Grips on my PS5 DualSense controller?
Clean the controller grips with a dry cloth, peel each grip from its backing, align it with the corresponding handle of the DualSense, and press firmly into place. The whole process usually takes under five minutes.
How do I remove the grips without damaging my controller?
Slowly peel each grip off starting from one edge. Because the adhesive is repositionable, it is designed to lift away cleanly without leaving residue or pulling off the controller's finish.
Can I reapply the grips after removing them?
Yes, in most cases. The adhesive is repositionable, so you can lift the grips off, realign them, and press them back into place. If they lose stickiness over many reapplications, it is time to replace the set.
Are these grips compatible with the standard PS5 DualSense controller?
Yes. Performance Grips are designed specifically for the standard PS5 DualSense controller, including both the original white model and later color variants.
Do they fit the DualSense Edge controller?
These grips are designed for the standard DualSense. For the DualSense Edge, KontrolFreek offers a separate grip set designed for that controller's slightly different shape.
What is included in the box when I buy Performance Grips?
Each box contains one pair of Performance Grips (left and right) for the PS5 DualSense, ready to peel and stick onto the controller. No additional tools or accessories are required.
Will the grips leave sticky residue on my controller?
No. The adhesive is formulated to peel away cleanly, so when you remove the grips your DualSense should look the same as it did before installation.
Are the materials safe and durable for long-term use?
Yes. The grips use a foam cushioning layer, a moisture-wicking fabric top, and a controller-safe adhesive, all designed for regular, long-term use without breaking down or harming the controller shell.
What is the difference between controller grips and thumbsticks?
Thumbsticks change the height and shape of the analog sticks to alter aim feel, while grips add cushioning and traction to the handles of the controller itself. They solve different problems and are often used together.
