PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a decorative pattern for sports equipment such as a racket, by covering the outside face of a handle by an over-grip sleeve formed with a comparatively thin and translucent elastic material and attaching the sleeve on the outside face of the handle by friction. SOLUTION: An over-grip tube or an over-grip sleeve 40 is formed with a translucent material. When the front end part 42 of the over-grip sleeve 40 is opened and made into a prescribed shape using a material such as Kraton, the inside face of the sleeve 40 is formed into a shape to fit to the outside face of a pattern pallet 22. However, the sleeve 40 is made into the shape of the underside surface when it is drawn on the pattern pallet 22 since the sleeve 40 is thin and flexible. The over-grip sleeve 40 covers holes and dent flat faces. Dents are filled with protruding logos or patterns and the upper faces of logos or patterns are arranged with the inside face of the over-grip sleeve 40 to make support of the sleeve 40 easier. |
