The Claw Grip Is Real — But So Is the Solution

The Claw Grip Is Real — But So Is the Solution

Alisha Haridasani Gupta from the New York Times recently highlighted a phenomenon we've been solving for over a decade: the “claw grip.” It's the everyday act of juggling keys, phones, lip balm, wallets, sunglasses, and water bottles in one hand - because pockets are too small and bags are heavy. 

It’s funny. It’s relatable. But it’s also very real.

The claw grip isn’t just a viral moment—it’s a symbol of the invisible load women carry, both physically and mentally. And it’s exactly why we created Oventure.

We designed the Original Big O® Key Ring to give women an extra hand. What began as a solution for digging through a purse for keys has evolved into a complete hands-free system trusted by over one million women.

So while the claw grip might be having a viral moment, we’ve been here all along—offering a simpler, smarter way to carry what matters most.

“The New York Times just called holding things a superpower—and we couldn’t agree more. At Oventure, we’ve always believed that staying hands-free isn’t just convenient—it’s empowering. Our Big O® Key Ring was created with that exact purpose in mind, and we’re proud to still be leading the charge.”

The claw grip may have gone viral online, but it represents something deeper. It speaks to the emotional and mental weight women manage every day. The to-do lists, the reminders, the multitasking. Sometimes holding everything in your hands is just a reflection of holding everything together.

We’re not here to judge the grip. We’re here to offer a better option.
