Standard Card Game Protectors Hermes Epic (55 pcs, 63.5x88 mm)

The purpose of protectors is to protect cards from any misfortunes. Protectors are rigid yet flexible plastic sleeves for cards, with a cut on the short side where the card is placed. First and foremost, protectors extend the life of the cards. Inside the protector, the card is safe from spills that players may accidentally make on the playing area. Protectors protect the cards when shuffling the deck; without them, the edges of the cards may touch each other and can damage the back. Additionally, some players believe that cards in protectors feel nicer to the touch.

When choosing a protector, always check the size of the cards and the size of the protector. In a too-large protector, the card will move freely and may fall out of it. In a too-small protector, the card may either not fit at all or bend.
