Beautiful Heavy-Duty Protection

We know the love of displaying your record collection. Vinyl record outer sleeves by Big Fudge are made from durable, crystal clear high-density polypropylene. Unlike industry-standard polyethylene record sleeves, which are opaque and easily clouded, our outer sleeves allow your album art to stand out and last longer.

Like all our other products, our outer record sleeves are designed by record geeks who want to make products worthy of their own standards. Other protective covers may split at the seams or wrinkle, but our sleeves are designed to forego all of those issues. We ensure that our clear vinyl sleeves will fit both single LPs comfortably and accommodate your prized gatefold or double albums snugly. We’ve streamlined the vinyl outer sleeve design further by removing the bulk that resealable flaps cause in other brands’ sleeve styles.

Product Details

• Measuring 12.75 x 12.75 inches, our vinyl record outer sleeves will fit single records, gatefold, or double albums comfortably.
• We offer this product for both 7" and 12" records. Both are available as 50x or 100x packs.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the "Crystal Clear" feature of these vinyl outer sleeves enhance their usability?

The "Crystal Clear" feature ensures complete transparency of the vinyl sleeve, allowing users to view the enclosed vinyl record with pristine clarity. This feature is particularly beneficial for showcasing album artwork, ensuring the content inside remains visually appealing without any cloudiness or distortion.

Why is "Wrinkle-Free" important in an outer sleeve?

A "Wrinkle-Free" outer record sleeve ensures a smooth, clean appearance, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of stored vinyl records. It prevents unwanted creases and folds, ensuring the content remains in pristine condition, and provides an uninterrupted view of the enclosed vinyl record, which is especially important for collectors or display purposes.

How does the 3-mil HDPP material impact the sleeve's longevity and protection capabilities?

The 3-mil HDPP material offers a balance between flexibility and robust protection. Being thicker than standard sleeves, it provides enhanced resistance against scratches, dust, and external contaminants. Its durability ensures that the vinyl outer sleeve lasts longer, safeguarding the contents inside while maintaining its original appearance.

Product Information

What are the dimensions of your 12” outer sleeves?

Our 12" outer sleeves measure 12.75 x 12.75 inches.

What is “mil” and what does it mean for the thickness of your sleeves?

Mil is not an mL (milliliters), but rather a micrometer measurement equating to approximately a thousandth of an inch. Pretty thin, in other words! Our outer record sleeves are 3 mil thick.

Will my double or triple LPs fit in your outer sleeves?

It depends on which LP release you have and how many layers of inner liner there are. That said, our sleeves are large enough for most double LPs if you have the original jacket.

The fit would be pretty snug around double or gatefold album covers. With a single "regular" LP there should be a little room left in the sleeve.

Triple LPs are often packaged as a collector’s box set and have inner liners that add to the thickness, so we do not recommend one sleeve for these.

What materials are your outer sleeves made from?

Our outer sleeves are made from HDPP — high-density polypropylene. This material is considered archival safe as it is as close to PH neutral as technically possible with plastic. Additionally, the material does not contain any plasticizers.

What are the ingredients of the cleaning solution in your Cleaning Kit?

The ingredients are water and minimal amounts of polyoxyethylene lauryl ether (isn't that a mouthful), disodium edetate dihydrate (another one!), and preservatives. The cleaning solution in our Cleaning Kit does not contain alcohol and is safe to use on your most precious items.  Enjoy!

What are the ingredients of your record cleaning solution in the Record Friend™?

The ingredients are:

• 90% water
• 9.7% Isopropanol
• 0.3% 5-chloro-2-methyl-2H-isothiazol-3-one

What makes your brushes in your record cleaning kit so special?

Instead of carbon, which is used in most record brushes, our record brushes are made from velvet. Velvet guarantees that no scratches or blemishes will be left by the brush. Plus, you’ll also find it works for other precious devices in your home, such as smartphones or tablets.

I’ve run out of record cleaner! Can I purchase this without buying a whole new kit?

Yes, of course. You can buy your refill cleaner here.

Are your inner record sleeves acid free and archival?

Yes, our inner record sleeves are both acid free and alkaline free, resulting in archival material that extends the longevity of your record collection.
