They can get coated with body oils and build up a layer of dust bouncing in the bag on the back of the cart. Vigorously wipe them off occasionally with a wet towel. Use a strong detergent and steel wool for a deep cleaning. You'll be surprised how much better they feel. After a season or two the grips should be replaced.
