My fingers are rather small in diameter for a man.
I feel I get a good grip on the pencil using this Pencil Grip device. I like the feeling of the material. I like the visual "R" or "L" markings that help me feel I am holding the grip in the right way. The grip has a very strong frictional hold on the pencil, and I feel more confident in doing my simple drawing activities.
The grip slides on a standard #2 pencil and holds it tightly. It is made to the Ticonderoga outer pencil sizing, so if you have a pencil which is larger or smaller in diameter, it simply won't fit. I don't know if it can be "resized" using a sharp knife to carve material out of the bore of the pencil grip.
I also like the different colors of the pencil grips. They are cheery, and it is easy to spot my pencil provided I don't toss papers on top of it.
I am not sure if pencil diameters vary a lot, but one improvement I'd suggest for this product is that it be able to work with mechanical pencils of either metal or plastic construction.
I think these pencil grips are extremely useful if you work in pencil -- at least for the very basic activities I do. (I can't draw even stick people, but my "smiley faces" see acceptable.)
I also recall buying pencils worth $6.00 each that claimed a fast and smooth writing. However reality was that nothing worked until I tried this Grips.
The price might sound a bit high at first, however it is worth it. My experience with them is great.
Feel: The grips have a very soft and smooth feel. They are made of a nice polymer that feels like gel, yet they are very resistant. Precisely that feel will help you reduce a lot the pressure you make to the pencil and I'm sure that contributes to reducing the pain in your hands.
Speed: Comparing how I write with this grips and the speed I had before I can tel i type like two times faster than before and without pain.
Position: This grips comes with the correct position to hold your pencil. Hence without even noticing you are holding your pencil with a correct position, another factor that will contribute to your overall performance when typing.
Resistance: As I mentioned this grips are very resistant. I still don't see a scratch on them. Even if I always use the same pencil the grip looks just as new.
Overall: I love this grips. They reduced the pain I had when typing by a very considerable amount. They made me type faster and better. I definitively recommend this product to anyone with any condition in their hands and to anyone who is looking to improve the position in which they hold the pencil or pen.
Note: It works perfectly on my mechanical pencil, my pens, and even my common #2 pencils.

Not only do they provide cushioning, but they force you to hold a pen correctly at the same time. Moreover, they're functional whether you're left or right-handed. Something I value, being that I'm ambidextrous and often alternate between hands. I also like how stretchy they are; I've paired them with my drawing pencils and Frixion pens.
☑ Positives
- Stopped my hands from cramping
- Forces you to hold a pen correctly
- Works for left and right-handed users
- Stretchy enough to fit most pens and pencils
