Abstract: A soap grip to prevent dropping the soap when bathing is provided. This is effected by sandwiching a soap bar between two or more pieces of cloth, preferably a polyester felt. The polyester felt is sewn or heat sealed together near the center in a U-shaped pocket with one end open to receive the soap bar leaving flaps at the outside of the pocket. The perimeter of the outwardly extending flaps of the soap grip is not sewn to allow more efficient soap flow through the material. The polyester felt around the soap bar provides a good grip, prevents dropping and is soft, stretchable and drapeable. This cloth allows good sudsing as the material was designed to provide flow through the thickness even when under pressure. In use, the soap grip retains the bar of soap as it is used up and ensures that 100% of the soap bar is employed thereby preventing waste.
