I think I'm the only one that seems to prefer the kind of cloudy outers. I'd definitely rather they be clear, but the clear ones always seem to be a bit flimsier(?) to me. And when they get any creases they look bad imo. But maybe I've just not tried the right ones.

This is exactly how I feel as well.. For a really long time I couldn't care less how "clear" an outer sleeve was but once I tried quality ones from Sleeve City it was a game changer and made even my rough jackets look like the Belle of the ball!

Nothing wrong with the cloudy ones though at all as I use them for my overflow and stuff I don't listen to very often so more Beast then Belle but they get the job done!

Here's an oversized gif of Prison Mike himself talking about the sleeves.

Also, the first clear ones I ever bought were absolute trash and I hated those as well so a good brand and decent thickness makes all the difference.

Not really. Definitely not like the MoFis do. The Hudson inners have a thicker paper backing, just sturdier overall compared to other brands.

Are they as sturdy as Sleeve City Audiophile inners? (If you're able to make that comparison).

I have some Gotta Groove at home too that I got from Plaidroom once and they were kind of flimsy like the Mofis. I never really liked the MOFI sleeves.

I have no experience with the SC sleeves. Definitely sturdier than GG, MoFI, and QRP rice paper inners

The Hudsons aren’t as sturdy as the SC Audiophile sleeves. I far prefer them to the MoFi inners or what you get when you buy a record pressed at Quality.

I wish they’d have a deal on 500 again. I’d jump on them in a heartbeat.

They're probably a little more sturdy then the MoFi's but def. not nearly as sturdy as Sleeve City Audiophile inners since those have the paper laminate on both sides and are nearly indestructible. Those are my favorite inners I have ever bought but they're also nearly $30 (+ shipping) for a 50 pack.. So basically 100 of those SC sleeves cost the same as 500 of the Hudson's (I only paid $30 for 500 inners and a 100 outers last year which made it an even easier decision). For me at least, the Hudson's are more then enough and not worth spending 5x's as much.

I'd say if you don't mind spending more for the SC sleeves and didn't like the Gotta Groove or MoFi inners you probably aren't going to love the Hudson's.
