Dragon Shield | Standard Size Card Classic Sleeves | 100 CT - Smooth & Tough Premium TCG Sleeves - Compatible with Pokemon, Flesh & Blood, One Piece & Magic The Gathering | Clear

These Dragon Shield Matte Dual Sleeves are excellent! My son uses them for his cards and he’s really happy with them. They’re smooth, durable, and protect the cards perfectly. The quality is great, and they fit the cards just right. Highly recommend for any TCG player!

Literally the best sleeves for your cards, all came clean and in perfect condition. They work well on thicker cards, but I wouldn't recommend if you don't want a tight fit. Feels perfectly smooth in your hands, and don't stick to one another. Clarity is great and you can even see the cards in bright lighting.

best sleeves in the west lol. seriously tho these are great. stiff and works even better with the inner sleeve side loading things

These card sleeves were a great choice for my Pokemon card collection. I spent several hours scouring different brands and types, looking for the best possible option for my expensive cards, and I found my way here. The sleeves themselves are very sturdy yet thin at the same time, and they resist creasing and shifting pretty well. The smooth texture makes them great for slipping into card storage cases and toploaders, as well as prevents texturing the cards with any texture added to the sleeve (which I have unfortunately had happen to me before...). They have a great price for the amount and quality provided, and come in a small, labeled box that can be used to store cards as well. They are a little loose on bare cards that you put in them, but that's to be expected for any sleeves without an inner sleeve. I highly recommend! Inner Sleeves I recommend for these outer sleeves: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07RZBBG14/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Toploaders I recommend for cards: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000Q5ZMM0/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 (Pictures above show a card with a Dragon Shield outer sleeve and inner sleeve)

Great for protection. Seem sturdy and well built. Allows me to play MTG without worry of destroying my valuable cards. I've used Dragon Shield Brand to protect my cards while deployed to Iraq and while back home. They do split relatively easily after a few shuffles but each pack comes with anywhere from 1-3 extra sleeves so I feel this helps make up for that.

Great quality sleeves for building a deck. I use these with Pokemon, MTG and YuGiOh cards without issue.

When I wanted a premium card sleeve for the board/card game Seasons, I posted a forum question at BoardGameGeek.com asking for recommendations in the standard Magic: The Gathering size of 63 x 88 mm (2 15⁄32 by 3 7⁄16 inches). I typically use KMC Perfect Size sleeves for this card size, but I wanted more rigidity to the sleeves for this game. Dragon Shield sleeves were the consensus suggestion. Produced by Arcane Tinmen of (and in) Denmark, and distributed in the U.S. by Fantasy Flight Games, Dragon Shield sleeves are an archival-quality sleeve. They have considerable heft in the plastic material that makes them about two to three times as thick as what most gamers are used to in premium card sleeves. And Dragon Shield sleeves are most definitely ultra-premium--with an ultra-premium price too. Expect to pay $10+ street for a pack of 100, almost twice the price of other premium sleeves. Packed in a box about an inch thick, the sleeves are more transparent than other premium sleeves I've used and not quite as slick. Dragon Shield sleeves come with colored backs, but I purchased the entirely clear sleeves to preserve access to the card art on the reverse. The sleeves have an obvious, slightly bulky edge where they have been sealed and a faint plastic odor. In sleeving the Seasons cards, I noticed the batch of sleeves felt like it was two runs. Half the cards were packed in the box opening up, the other half down. One half was slightly smaller in width and required more nudging to get a card into the sleeve. So while the uniformity of the sleeves was good, it wasn't perfect. Overall, the fit was snug even though there was about 1 mm or so on either side of the card. KMC Perfect Size sleeves fit more snugly, almost a skin for the cards, but I suspect the bulkier Dragon Shield sleeves required more card overhang due to their much greater mil thickness. The opening of the sleeve was 2-3 mm above the card edge, and was the most rigid of any card sleeve I have used. This sleeve is not going to give and let the tops of cards get damaged. If used for board/card game cards, these sleeves will inflate the depth of the card deck by two to three times. So if your game has an insert with a well for cards, be prepared for serious overflow. Not only that, but in game play a stack of cards sleeved with Dragon Shields will resemble a wobbly Jenga tower missing most of its blocks. A few who suggested buying the Dragon Shields noted a couple extra sleeves came with every box. I was counting on this, so when it appeared that I was one short, I felt that little surge of customer satisfaction angst. Luckily, sleeve number 100 was lurking in its box. Extras? Nope. Given how much these sleeves cost, a couple extra would have been nice, since the prospect of replacing a damaged sleeve is a little daunting when you paid $10 for a pack and the company HQ is in Denmark. In conclusion, if you are somewhat maniacal about card sleeving, I can't think of a sleeve that delivers better protection. That said, Dragon Shield sleeves are more archival than playable. Cards sleeved in Dragon Shields will make the card stack seem like the gaming equivalent of the race for a mile-tall skyscraper. Some have suggested pressing the sleeved cards under a book to force some air out, and that may be something I try. If you need to ensure maximum protection for MtG-sized cards, Dragon Shield sleeves are your best bet. Just be prepared to pay more and to look for ways to keep the height of your card stack manageable.

Pro's -Extremely durable -Easy to shuffle -Look great -Feel nice Con's -A little expensive compared to other sleeves -There are little plastic pieces on the sides of the sleeves that stick out -They come curled (they will flatten out after an hour or so) -Some are miscut (some are small and some are large) -The corners may be curled Summary: These sleeves are the best available. They are a little expensive compared to other sleeves but they are worth it. The quality is extremely high. I tugged on the sleeves for a while and they wouldn't rip. They are very easy to shuffle with and feel very comfortable when held. The miscuts are very annoying though. They seem to have corrected this problem but there were 14 miscuts in my box. The number isn't large but it annoys me that the company hasn't corrected the issue. Every box will have a few miscuts but the sleeves are WORTH IT! They are amazing sleeves and, in my opinion, the best sleeves available! These are a MUST HAVE for anyone that plays card games. I use these for all my decks.
