Bought these for myself and they work great. Saved myself over a tenner.
As good as the kontrol freeks and thumbstax etc and for a fraction of the price.

I don't know what these are like but I'm tempted to give them a try.
Im a huge kontrol freek fan, been using them for a couple of years. Yes they are expensive for 2 small bits of rubber and plastic but they are a quality product so fit well and last along time. Improved my gaming experience no end. Tried using an Xbox controller without them and the sticks feel too small and short.

these are OK but once you actually use a set of kontrol freeks, these aren't a patch on feel or precision.

Got these for my PS4, to replace the worn out originals. They feel bulkier but also feel good, plus they've lasted much longer.

I owned so many different thumbstick covers, in the end I tried one pair of KF and never looked back. The rubber material on top of the KF gives them much more grip, the feeling is just not matched. It's like comparing F1/MotoGP slick soft tires with hard rain ones, seriously.

I need to disagree. I have couple sets of Chinese made ones and around 5 versions of KontrolFreeks for both my ps4 (including 4 controllers) and xbone and I think the feel of KontrolFreek's material and the way they sit tightly on the stick makes them so much more comfortable and precise. It's worth to try both, trust me.

These look like the same as the gameseek ones I bought for around £1.50. They fit quite good. My analogues are good as new underneath them

Thanks for the reply. I'll give them a go for my DS4, the grips are pass their sell by on that! No loss really at this price!

Are these any good OP? I've never tried anything like these, I'm crazy fussy about thumb sticks! Love the one on the PS4 (after a few months of wear) love the 360 ones. Don't like the XBO ones or the PS3 ones though. Currently using a Hori FPS plus as my go to controller for most games, do you think these would fit? Anyone have any ideas?

All my console controllers have the small bump grips.
Bought a pack of 10 for like £1.50 ebay China and gave everyone I know a set of grips.
Well worth it.

Truth be told I'm not one of those sit-at-desk and earn livelihood from gaming type blokes. I casually play gta and cod and have found that these are as good for sniping as my kontrol freeks were when I had them for Xbox 360 a tad while ago.

If the analog on the controller you mention is roughly same size as the original dualshock 4 pad analog then I'd imagine it'd be a snug fit
