I have not heard any issues about grip quality or durability, so I think you should be fine. However, if you plan on using the saber for dueling, a lot, and for a long time, any material, the grip, the wires, the LEDs, the hilt... anything will wear. Of all the repairs, replacing a grip is relatively easy.
If it's that big a concern, there are plenty of great sabers without wrap, but I admit, I like the wrap.
