Rexel Quality A4 Punched Pockets with Red Spine, Left Opening, Embossed, Pack of 25, 12253

You can’t beat these for quality and long lastingI won’t buy any other make. These are excellent

My other sleeve pockets:I previously bought "strengthened" "premium" pockets from WHSmith (name and shame). They were very blurry and "milky", which actually didn't bother me, that was not one of my concerns, however, the edge "holes" literally ripped within minutes, which was obviously very frustrating to say the least. They were so surprisingly awful that I did a lot of looking around before settling for a different product.This product caught my attention because of the great reviews. I was a bit hesitant at first, but wanted to give it a try.These sleeve pockets:These pockets do not disappoint!! The green edges were my main concern because the "holes" in the ones I already had were ripping way too easily, but these are super strong. I even tested one (given that there are 100 in a pack) and pulled really hard at them... and I can say that they withstand a lot. Another welcomed attribute was that these were actually very clear, like I said before, that wasn't my priority, but it is nice!Pricing:Some may think the price is a bit too high, but actually it really isn't; the supposedly premium ones I bought from WHSmith were a fiver for 25 sleeves, whereas these were £16ish for 100! Not to mention that they are actually very much worth it.My advice? You will not regret it, I say give them a try, you are unlikely not to be impressed by them, especially if you have previously only ever used the "bad" quality ones.

Not all A4 punched pockets are equal!These 90 micron pockets are sturdy and don’t tear and rip when you try and put several sheets into the pocket, you can reuse them time and time again.I also like the fact that they are glass clear so you can photocopy papers / documents whilst they are still in their pocket.For the quality they are well worth the price.

Good, strong product

These punched pockets are really good quality. Rexel's the only brand I will purchase.

We use these sleeves a lot in the office. Very sturdy. Highly recommend these.

Having been misled by one or two poor reviews of this product, I went ahead & bought a more expensive product which depicted the original old blue coloured packaging. In fact, what I received was the new green & grey box (perusal of the Rexel website confirmed that this was their new packaging), and, as I still had a few of the 'older' pockets in the blue coloured packaging, I was able to compare the two side by side.I can unequivocally state that there is absolutely no difference between the two. These pockets are glass clear, strongly made and the green perforated strip is robust. I use these exclusively to hold photographs: they comfortably hold 2 x A4 prints on Canon Matt Photo Paper (back to back) - and, when I send these abroad to friends, I insert a thin sheet of white A4 card between the two. There is no sign whatsoever of any splitting, tearing or any other weakness in these polished pockets. And they are spacious enough to hold 3 sheets.

I bought these for the quality. I needed reliably strong pockets that would hold 2 sheets of A4 card in each one and not break during regular use, these fit that purpose and I am extremely happy with them. Yes, they cost more than many others but many others break after a while and so I rate them well worth the extra and will always use them. It is important to note however, that you really need 4 ring binders, not 2 ring. As a bit of useful information: They open at the top and are A4 size.
