Recently got Federal Contacts. SOOOOOPEEERR comfy, seem durable as hell, but they aren't so grippy. Gonna replace them i suppose. Ive narrowed my choices down to these 3. Cant find much about them. Just seeing if any of you have experience with them or could direct me towards a review. I am particularly interested in the Primos but they dont look so durable (hoping someone tells me otherwise.)

The Primo's are like gripping puppy's made of s00per soft rubber. I hate them. If you like s00per soft grips (softer than Edwins) get em. Lasted my friend about 2 weeks.
