Card sleeves are the first step to protect sports cards and something almost every collector uses. Standard size cards that are a normal thickness use “penny sleeves”. If the collector has thick cards, you’ll also want to get Thick Card Sleeves. These sleeves are easy stocking stuffers for a sports card collector.

Toploaders are also used by almost all card collectors, commonly in conjunction with the above card sleeves. Toploaders add a stronger level of protection than the sleeves alone. Like the sleeves, there are standard-thickness toploaders, and toploaders for thick cards. The standard thickness toploaders make the best size as a gift, because they will almost always be needed.

For sports card collectors that like high-end cards (that’s all collectors), a box of BCW Magnetics Card Holders is perfect. These display premium cards great and are very popular. Like the sleeves and toploaders, the magnetic card holders come in different thicknesses. Again, the magnetics for standard thickness cards make the best choice for a gift, as they will definitely be used.
