Gamegenic Matte Prime Sleeves – Black – 100 Pack – Standard-Sized Card Protection
Gamegenic Matte Prime Sleeves – Black – 100 Pack – Standard-Sized Card Protection
The Gamegenic Matte Prime Sleeves in Black are a pack of 100 sleeves designed to protect standard-sized gaming cards from bent corners, scratches, and wear during shuffling. Each sleeve measures 66 mm by 99 mm, fitting most trading card game decks and larger deck formats. The matte front reduces glare and eye strain during play, while the fine-textured matte back provides a secure shuffle feel without slipping.
What makes these sleeves different from standard card sleeves?
The Matte Prime Sleeves feature an extra-high back-cover that offers opacity even on lighter-colored card backs. This design prevents show-through and keeps your cards looking clean. The sleeves are acid-free and contain no PVC, making them a safer long-term storage option for your collection. They are also optimized for double-sleeving, working seamlessly with other Gamegenic inner sleeves and storage solutions.

How do these sleeves handle frequent shuffling?
The matte back side has a fine texture that increases friction, so cards stay together in a pile rather than sliding apart. This makes shuffling more controlled and reduces the risk of cards bending or marking. The durable edges resist peeling and splitting, even with repeated side-shuffling or mash-shuffling.
Can I use these with other Gamegenic products?
Yes. The Matte Prime Sleeves are designed for double-sleeving. You can place an inner sleeve (like Gamegenic's Perfect Fit) inside these outer sleeves for added protection. They also fit into Gamegenic deck boxes, binders, and card storage cases. Check out the full Gamegenic line for coordinated storage solutions.
Frequently asked questions
Are these sleeves suitable for double-sleeving?
Yes, they are optimized for double-sleeving with standard-sized inner sleeves (e.g., Gamegenic Perfect Fit or similar).
Do these sleeves fit larger deck formats like Commander or EDH?
They are designed for standard-sized cards (66x99 mm) and can accommodate larger formats when using an appropriate deck box. They are not oversized for 100-card decks but will fit if the deck box dimensions allow.
What is the weight of one sleeve?
The total pack weight is 0.12 kg for 100 sleeves, so each sleeve weighs about 1.2 grams.
Are these sleeves safe for valuable cards?
The sleeves are acid-free and PVC-free, which helps prevent chemical damage over time. The extra-high back-cover provides opacity to protect card backs from light exposure. However, no sleeve guarantees protection from all damage; proper handling is still recommended.
