Photocard Storage Compatibility Guide
Photocard Storage Compatibility Guide
Use this guide to find the right storage for your K-pop photocards — whether you're sleeving, binding, displaying, or filling empty pockets.
Standard Photocard Dimensions
Most K-pop photocards measure approximately 55 × 85 mm (roughly the size of a standard trading card). Our sleeves and filler inserts are sized to fit this standard with comfortable clearance.
Our Sleeve Formats
- 61 × 91 mm sleeves — Our primary sleeve size. Fits one standard photocard with room to slide in and out easily. Available in clear colorful and frame styles (15-pack and 25-pack options).
- 63 × 92 mm sleeves — Slightly larger outer sleeve (e.g., SKZOO Clover Sleeves 50/pack). Designed to layer over a sleeved card as an outer protective or decorative frame sleeve.
Single vs. Double Sleeving
- Single sleeve (61 × 91 mm): A bare photocard fits directly into a 61 × 91 mm sleeve. This is the standard setup for binder pages.
- Double sleeve: Place a photocard in a 61 × 91 mm inner sleeve first, then slide that into a 63 × 92 mm outer sleeve (e.g., Clover Sleeves). This adds an extra layer and a decorative frame effect.
Binder Page Compatibility
Our A5 binders (FOXI.NY, PUPPYM, DWAEKKI, JINIRET, SKZOO Plush, Pink Whalien, ARIRANG) use standard A5 pocket pages.
- Single-sleeved cards (61 × 91 mm): Fit standard A5 binder pockets. ✓
- Double-sleeved cards (61 × 91 mm inner + 63 × 92 mm outer): The combined thickness may be a tight fit in some binder pockets. Check that pocket opening is wide enough before inserting.
- Bare photocards (no sleeve): Will fit but have more movement in pockets; a sleeve is recommended to prevent edge wear.
- Filler inserts (61 × 91 mm): Fit standard binder pockets to fill empty slots and complete your spreads. ✓
Photocard Holders (Acrylic & Keychains)
Our acrylic and keychain holders (Celestial, Umbrella, Arirang series) are designed for bare or single-sleeved standard photocards. Double-sleeved cards may not fit depending on the holder's slot depth.
- Arirang Photocard Holder (World Tour & Lightstick styles): Fits standard photocards and inner sleeves; includes ball chain for bags or display.
- Acrylic Holders (Celestial, Umbrella): Designed for single photocard display. Best used with a bare or lightly sleeved card.

When Is a Top Loader Needed?
We don't currently carry top loaders. A top loader is a rigid plastic case used when a card needs firm, hard-shell protection — for example, high-value pulls you want to keep mint for resale or long-term storage. For active binder collections, a 61 × 91 mm sleeve inside an A5 binder page provides secure everyday protection.
