How to Measure Your Cards to Choose the Right Sleeve Size

Not sure what size your cards are? No worries! Here’s a simple step-by-step guide to help you measure your cards accurately and choose sleeves that fit perfectly – whether it’s for Magic: The Gathering, Pokémon, Tarot, or any custom-sized game.

  1. Use a millimeter ruler or digital caliper – Always measure in millimeters (mm) for accuracy.

  2. Measure card width – Measure from the left to the right edge of the card.

  3. Measure card height – Measure from top to bottom.

  4. Add 1–2 mm if you want a looser fit – Ideal for collector or display cards.

  5. Choose the fit:

  • Perfect Fit Exact size
  • Oversized Fit  1–2 mm more room for easier sleeving or double-sleeving

Use Our Sleeve Finder to Find Your Perfect Sleeve – Just Enter Your Card Size

To make your shopping experience faster and easier, we’ve created a special Sleeve Finder tool. It matches sleeves based on the size of your cards, not the sleeves themselves.

No more guessing which sleeve fits best, just:

  • Enter your card’s height and width in millimeters

  • (Optional) Select your card type (like Mini American, Standard CCG, Tarot, etc.)

Our system will automatically filter and show you sleeves that fit your cards snugly and securely.

You don’t need to measure sleeves or compare product specs — we handle the matching for you.

If you want to check sleeve dimensions anyway, detailed measurements are always available in each product’s Additional Information section.
