Hierarchically structured, superoleophobic surfaces displaying one of the lowest contact angle hysteresis ever reported are developed by Anish Tuteja and co‐workers on page 5838 . These surfaces allow droplets of the extremely low surface tension liquid, n‐heptane, to bounce and roll off at tilt angles ≤ 2°.
