I have had the opportunity to meet Tim and his wife Lilly. Both have engineering and manufacturing backgrounds and they have designed a product that does not cause any damage to the hot shoe when using the thumbs up. I know that no damage has been caused when using a Thumps up on my M8.2 and now M9.. . . . . Some folks wrote that it puts too much pressure on the hot shoe etc...
Tim is a Leica enthusiast who designs and builds accessories for Leica cameras.
You may want to drop Tim an email and ask for a recommendation regarding best fit for a smaller hand. I have contacted him a couple of times with questions and he has always been quick to respond. http://matchtechnical.com/contactus.aspx
Questions about grips . . . . . it is sort of like asking about filters . . . . . a lot of personal opinions . . . . .
Good luck with your decision.
