FAQs
What does 'Japanese Sized' mean for card sleeves?
Japanese-sized cards are typically smaller than standard poker or bridge-sized cards. They measure approximately 63mm x 88mm (2.5 inches x 3.5 inches).
How many sleeves are included in a pack?
Each pack of Gamegenic Prime Japanese Sized Sleeves contains 60 sleeves.
Can I mix and match sleeve colors?
Yes, Gamegenic offers Prime Japanese Sized Sleeves in various colors. You can use different colors to categorize different types of cards or decks within your games.
Are these sleeves archival safe?
These sleeves are made from high-transparency polypropylene, which is generally considered an archival-safe material for card protection, preventing yellowing and degradation.
Will these sleeves fit my board game cards?
They are designed for Japanese-sized cards (approx. 63mm x 88mm). It's recommended to measure your cards or check your game's specifications to confirm compatibility.
How does the 100-micron thickness affect gameplay?
The 100-micron thickness provides increased durability, a more premium feel, and enhanced protection against bends and creases. This added thickness offers a robust shield for your cards.
Are the sleeves slippery or sticky?
The finely structured surface is designed to provide a pleasant shuffling feel, avoiding excessive slipperiness or stickiness, allowing for controlled and smooth card manipulation.
Troubleshooting
Sleeves feel too tight or too loose
Ensure you are using sleeves designed for Japanese-sized cards. If the fit is still not ideal, try shuffling the deck gently to allow the sleeve material to adapt.
Difficulty shuffling cards in sleeves
New sleeves may require a short break-in period. Shuffle the deck repeatedly or play a few rounds to wear in the sleeve texture for smoother shuffling.
Opacity is not as high as expected on very dark cards
While designed for high opacity, the effect can vary slightly with extremely dark card backs. The sleeves still provide excellent protection and prevent see-through on most standard card designs.
Sleeves split or tear during use
Inspect the sleeve for any manufacturing defects. If damage occurs during normal use, check the card edges for sharpness, as this can sometimes contribute to wear over time. Contact customer support if a defect is suspected.
