inches
Standard trading-card size
Most mainstream TCG and standard sports cards measure approximately 2.5 × 3.5 inches (63.5 × 88.9 mm). Card thickness, sleeves and specialty finishes can change the total fit, so always check the specific listing.
| Deckvora product | Standard raw card | Single sleeve | Double sleeve | Important note |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Exact-fit sleeves | Designed to fit | Used as the inner sleeve | Pair with a compatible outer sleeve | Insert gently and confirm card dimensions. |
| 35pt rigid toploaders | Use a sleeve first | Typical setup | Check thickness | Do not force thick cards or oversized sleeve combinations. |
| Side-loading binders | Compatible | Compatible | Commonly compatible | Actual fit depends on sleeve thickness and pocket fill. |
| Binder refill pages | Compatible pockets | Compatible pockets | Check thickness | Also match page dimensions and hole pattern to the binder. |
| Deck box | Compatible | Compatible | Check total deck width | Capacity changes with sleeve thickness and dividers. |
Recommended protection order
- Handle the card with clean, dry hands.
- Place it carefully in a correctly sized soft sleeve.
- Add a compatible outer sleeve, binder pocket or 35pt toploader.
- Store upright or flat in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
Do not force the fit
Stop if the card bows, the sleeve wrinkles heavily, or unusual pressure is required. Thick memorabilia cards, graded slabs, oversized cards and non-standard formats need products specifically designed for their dimensions.
Refill-page compatibility
Pocket count alone does not guarantee that a refill page fits a binder. Confirm the page height, width, hole count and hole spacing shown on both product listings.
Capacity is an estimate
Advertised binder and deck-box capacities are based on the intended card setup. Double sleeves, thicker cards and dividers can reduce the practical number of cards that fit comfortably.
