Nagaoka Anti-Static Inner CD Sleeves (20-Sheet Set) Customer Reviews

This is what you need to keep your music in tip top condition. The sleeves are smooth and very easy to slip the discs into. When you invest in great music you want your CDs to be well protected. I've been using these ever since I started visiting cd.japan.

I'm very protective of my collection, so with how many CDs are released in digipaks without a proper tray nowadays, these sound like a great idea on paper. Unfortunately, there are bad batches of this item here and there, and you won't realise it until it's too late and the damage is done beyond repair. They can leave a cloudy warped residue on the playable surface of the disc, that could not be cleaned off with fluid and a microfibre cloth. I've had dozens of valuable discs damaged by this, from now hard to find Japanese pressings of The Beatles, and Radiohead, to various other stuff that cannot be replaced. Better off leaving them in its original packaging with the potential minor scratch that a clouded up disc.

I can no longer recommend these sleeves. I was shocked and horrified to discover that, as another recent reviewer recently warned, these sleeves are leaving marks/residue on the recorded side of my CDs. I had to use a microfiber cloth and isopropyl alcohol to remove the residue. It was a very time consuming and frustrating to go through so many discs. My CDs are kept in a room with low humidity and regulated temperature. I won't be buying these again. At this point I think it's safer just to store the discs in the digisleeve packaging without inner sleeves.

These Nagaoka anti-static inner sleeves are a game-changer for any serious CD collector. They are incredibly soft and smooth, ensuring that my discs are protected from scratches and static build-up, which can attract dust. I've replaced all my old paper sleeves with these, and I can already see the difference in how clean my discs stay. They fit perfectly inside the original jewel case or cardboard sleeves. If you care about preserving your music collection for the long term, these inner sleeves are an absolute must-have. Fantastic product!

These inner sleeves are excellent. Very handy to prevent scuffing on cds in digipaks and in boxsets. Extremely good product.

I have previously ordered 13 packs (a total of 260 sleeves) of these since 2023, and to my dismay, I recently discovered that they leave visible and unpleasant marks on CDs. I’m not sure whether this is due to a chemical reaction or if some material from the inner surface of the sleeves is transferring onto the discs. The CDs have under no circumstances been exposed to high temperatures or humidity. They have been stored in a climate-controlled indoor environment typical of Scandinavia, under stable and safe conditions. It is therefore entirely out of the question that the marks could have resulted from storage conditions or any reaction related to heat or moisture. Could it be that these sleeves are simply no longer safe for CD storage? Has the quality of the plastic material deteriorated over time? This is really unfortunate. These products are purchased by customers who want to protect their CDs — yet the result is exactly the opposite. The manufacturer should take responsibility for this.

Ideal for cd's wich came in boxsets with paper sleeve but without inner cd sleeves. Much easier to put cd's in and take it out.

These sleeves are very strong and of very high quality. They do not tear and do not scratch the surface of the CD. I highly recommend them.

I never hesitate to stock up on this when I run low and I have done so many times as a very good protector of cds that sometimes come straight in the cardboard without any scratch protection. Also in hot climates I want to try to ensure cd rot does not set in having lost quite a few cds and dvds to this; my hope is that this extra protection helps my cds last longer in my hot climate. Definitely recommended.

I have recieved some of the CD inner sleeves before. Good sleeves for CD. Reccomend this to others....

Use these sleeves to prevent scratches to the surface when retrieving CD from standard cardboard LP size CD holders. Antistatic protection a positive.

I would like to warn individuals about this product. When inspecting my CD's, I have discovered that the CD sleeve has damaged a lot of my CD's by leaving long spots on it by where the CD sleeve is touching the CD. Those can be seen by inspecting the CD under a bright light. I recommend everyone using this product to double check your CD'S!

These sleeves effectively combat static build-up, ensuring your CDs remain free from dust, fingerprints, and potential damage. The thoughtful design guarantees a smooth insertion and removal process, without risking scratches. The set of 20 sheets provides ample protection for a sizeable CD collection.

If you're a dedicated audiophile or just someone who wants to keep their CDs in optimal condition, these anti-static inner sleeves are an essential investment.

I generally purchase a few packs of these as they are extremely great for replacing older CD inserts. These are also great for American cardboard sleeve CDs as they generally don’t have any kind of protection to keep them from getting scratched. Another good use is for the latest releases of expanded reissues that come with a vinyl pressing and two or three CDs that are just slipped into the glossy slots. They will get scratched. One purchase I made awhile back was Bob Mould – Distortion: 1989 - 2019. It’s 24 CDs with a signed print and the CDs just slip into a small edge that holds them in place. I immediately got out my Nagaoka Anti-Static and protective CD sleeves and placed each CD into a sleeve and they have kept this career spanning box set from being scratched up. Other companies here in the U.S. sell these for almost 10 times as much as I can get them here generally when I place an order for new items. I’ve also folded these and cut a hole in the center and used them in jewel cases and on DVDs.

A must for all fans of mini LP`s and digipacks. Since discs are inserted without cellophane envelopes and scratched in all European and American deluxe boxes, this set is doubly useful.

Over time, anti-static envelopes in mini vinyl are wrinkled from long use. It can produce craquelure on the surface of the disk. It is useful to periodically change these envelopes (unless, of course, they are not very authentic). This product is very useful in this sense. Highly recommend!

I bought myself such packages for European and Russian Mini LP. Because there are no such packages in them, which is very unfortunate. Only Japanese Mini LP have such packages. The discs in them are perfectly preserved from dust and other actions. Excellent purchase!

These are an absolute necessity to protect the discs that come unprotected cardboard sleeves from scratches. The size of these sleeves is perfect quality control is excellent!

I find with many mini lp style CD covers that the disc scrapes against the card and becomes scuffed over time. These are an excellent solution to the problem. They fit most mini-lp cases. Like the Nagaoka LP covers they are a discrete fit and reassure me that my discs will be kept scuff free.

Really good accessory to protect discs from fingerprints and dirt. I highly Recommend it if you don't like to put CD into jewel cases.
