Alternatives to Pole Sleeves/ Pole Armour?

Hi everyone, So my pole at home is extremely un-grippy and I am contemplating buying a pole sleeve or something to put over the top of it. However, I find these options to be pretty expensive and I live in Australia so I am not sure if they even ship here! Has anyone tried other brands/ products or used other products to make their poles less slippery? (I have a titanium matte silver X-pole). Thanks!
