Dragon Shield Matte Dual Standard Size Card Sleeves (100 ct) - Orchid - Smooth Textured Back with Black Interior for Opaque Protection
These Dragon Shield Matte Dual sleeves offer a textured matte back and a fully opaque black interior, making them ideal for tournament play where hidden information is key. The 100-count pack is sized for standard trading cards like Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, Flesh & Blood, and One Piece. Each sleeve measures 66 x 91 mm (standard), with a polypropylene construction that balances durability with a smooth shuffle feel.
Why choose the black interior?
The black interior ensures complete opacity, so double-sided or marked cards stay concealed. This is especially important in competitive settings where card backs must remain uniform. Unlike clear sleeves, the Matte Dual line hides any wear or print on the back of your cards.
How does the shuffle feel compare?
The matte texture on the back reduces friction, allowing sleeves to glide past each other without sticking. Many players find this improves deck handling during quick games. The polypropylene material is also resistant to splitting, so sleeves hold up to repeated riffle shuffling.

Frequently asked questions
Are these sleeves compatible with double-sleeving?
Yes, the Matte Dual sleeves are designed to fit over standard size inner sleeves, creating a double-layer protection system. The outer sleeve’s black interior hides the inner sleeve’s opening.
Will the Orchid color fade over time?
Dragon Shield uses color-fast pigments in their polypropylene. Under normal use and storage (away from direct sunlight), the color should remain vibrant for many games.
Can I use these for oversized cards?
These are standard size (66 x 91 mm), intended for normal trading cards. Oversized cards will not fit. For larger cards, look for Dragon Shield’s Japanese or tarot size sleeves.
Do the sleeves have a matte front?
No, the front is clear and glossy to show the card art. Only the back has the matte texture that provides the controlled handling and opaque black interior.
