Are Ultra Pro Inner Sleeves Better Now?

I've heard that the Ultra Pro fixed their inner sleeves so that it won't bend your cards anymore. Is this true?
Okay I really would like to voice an opinion on this. I am a HUUUGEE KMC fanboy I EXCLUSIVELY use their sleeves and inner sleeves. However, I will also vouch for ultra pros new inner sleeves because they are like 99.9% the same thing as the kmcs which really impresses me. If you have the choice and they are the same price get kmc most likely but if the ultra pros are cheaper and they are the new ones then they are probably better for the price. I will say if youre using kmc sleeves or ultra pro sleeves use their respective inner sleeve for best cohesion.

I bought a pack of the new ultra pro ones and I must say, I'm super impressed with their quality. For a much lower price, and only a slightly lower quality sleeve, I'm thinking about making the change. The ultra pro perfect fits also fit super nicely into the KMC hyper mats.

Thanks all! I made my choice to buy the Ultra Pros if they are cheaper, but if they're the same price, I'll go with the KMCs.

Also, for EmblemMan's post, did the Legion Defenders get better as well? I'm going to buy some legion wolf sleeves for my modern wolf deck. Now before you guys say that I can't double sleeve with them, I just want you guys to know that I can easily double sleeve some KMCs in some Dragon Shields without it getting too tight or anything. EmblemMan said that i should use the same brand with the same brand, but last time I bought Legion inner sleeves, they had the same problem as the old Ultra Pro ones.

I have never been able to double sleeve with dragonshields. Though I did just try it in there matte sleeves and it did work. Still don't think it will work with the old school ones.

I double sleeve abzan using kmc within dragon shield. Some are pretty tight though but generally its all good.

I honestly did not know that legion had inner sleeves. I will say I think it would be hard to double sleeve with legion sleeves but if you want to I would probably use kmc or ultra pro inner sleeves just because we know they work. Often times inner sleeves from a certain brand are made for their sleeves but also work well with others but you run the risk of just using worse sleeves with legion since I have never heard anything about them.

I haven't noticed a difference with KMC and Ultra Pro perfect fits. I always buy Ultra Pro now because they are the same quality, cheaper, and a lot easier to buy.
I exclusively use Dragonshield as my outer sleeves as well. I have had issues getting KMC inner and outer sleeves to fit together. Dragonshield and Ultra Pros fit beautifully.

Even if it is, KMC perfect fits are waaaay better. Get those instead.
