"Double deck of Kem cards with a wider format. 2.5 x 3.5 inches. They have regular indicies, and come in double deck packs, one red deck and one blue deck. KEM are made of cellulose-acetate - a strong, tough, yet flexible plastic. According to the manufacturer, KEM are the world's most desired playing cards. They look different. They feel different. They are different. Some of our customers will only play with Kem. Others do not care for the feel, which is different from dime store cards. KEM cards stay clean, crisp, fresh and flexible throughout their life. They resist scuffing, breaking and dog-earring. They cannot be marred. KEM cards last longer, which makes them some of the least expensive cards on a per-play basis."
