Logitech rolled out custom ID grips for the G9 Laser Mouse. These grips cost $19.99 and are only available in the U.S. via Logitech's webshop.
Your face? Your dog? Your guild’s logo? Choose your favorite image for your ID Grip.

Plus, the broad-shaped ID Grip provides exceptional palm support—like the popular shapes of the G5 and the MX™518 mice.

To start making your ID Grip, just click the Customize Now button on the right. Upload your own image or choose from our selection of pre-designed images.

“In surveying gamers who own a Logitech mouse, we learned that more than 65 percent want to mod their hardware,” said Rory Dooley, Logitech senior vice president and general manager of the Control Devices business unit. “The Logitech G9 Laser Mouse ID Grip provides gamers with a new level of personalization. Whether it’s a guild logo or a personal photo, we’re delighted to give gamers the ability to make the G9 mouse even more a reflection of their unique personality.”

To provide a durable image that won’t fade even after intense gaming, the rub- and fade-proof image is applied with a specially designed custom printing process that infuses it into the surface of the grip. The result is a high-quality, high-resolution color image. And adding an image to the grip is easy. You can choose from game-specific artwork, such as Command & Conquer Red Alert 3 from Electronic Arts Inc., or upload a personal image of your own. (Certain restrictions apply; uploads subject to technical and image-content requirements.)

In addition to helping you further personalize your G9 mouse, Logitech’s grip presents a new shape. Providing exceptional palm and wrist support, the broad-shaped grip is designed for extended gameplay, and can make even those gamers with large hands feel comfortable. In addition, a soft-touch side grip offers a comfortable texture that feels good during short gaming sessions and epic battles. Easy to snap on to the G9 Laser Mouse, the ID Grip can be attached or detached with the push of a button.
