Inspired by a vintage aesthetic, these U.S. Regulation Playing Cards in plaid are offered in a Striking Arizona Red and a Casual California Blue. They're the perfect accompaniment for everyday use, but also feature posh details and amusing activities never before paired with a deck of cards.

From the natural color palette, leatherette box, off-white faces, and illustrated joker of the majestic Buck to the crossword puzzles and definitive recipe for the world's oldest known cocktail, the Sazerac, it's no doubt these cards were designed for men and are among the finest ever produced.

"For us, these cards bring back fond memories of childhood camping trips with our grandfather. Watching him pitch a tent, reel in a fish, and bring fire ablaze under a starry night were magical moments we never forgot. In honor of those days by the river and nights under the stars, we are proud to offer these new playing cards."

Printed by the US Playing Card Company on a premium stock with a cambric finish. Packaged in a custom 12-pack carton available only for orders of a dozen or more.

The cards are very stiff, and have this odd stiffness that only cards with non-complex back designs have. I don't know how better to describe that. It's similar to the blue dragon backs. Maybe the best looking deck ever, and the two backs have distinct features. The Arizona Red has this weird shimmer effect to the back when you look at it at certain angles. At some angles all the red disappears, at some angles all the black disappears. Adds an interesting dynamic to watching the cards move, especially when flourishing. And the California Blue...I don't know if I should share this since no one else has mentioned it...what the hell, it's one way. You can figure out how it works on your own.

These are my favorite D&D cards to handle. Well besides Smoke & Mirrors. The design is without a doubt, fun to just look at. Simple, yet astounding. The Vintage Plaid playing cards are a must have.

You've known and loved them for ages and expected the highest of expectations from them. With the decks they came out with, you've expected nothing other than the best. From the Buck twins, this deck is no exception to the quality of work they produce. With a deck named the Vintage Plaid deck produced by Dan & Dave, you know you are getting a little bit of the old mixed in with the new. First to have a Leatherette box, the Vintage Plaid deck combines old gentlemen etiquette with modern cardistry glam. Not only does this deck have a Leatherette box, but it also has off-white faces that truly show wear-and-tear without sacrificing quality. After receiving this deck, the feel is unreal, and I am sure anyone will be happy to have one of these decks, not matter what color, in their hands. Get yours soon before they are all gone.

The best deck I've ever seen. Every time I take it in hand, I admire how perfectly matched the colors are. Blue or red, it does not matter. These cards MUST be in the collection, and only in a pair.

These cards are classy and all round beautiful...I bought these recently and I reckon I got them for a steal. They are honestly amazing and if I was to recommend one deck to buy to make you performances classier then these would definately be the choice.

I'm generally a fan of less expensive, more standard decks. IE: Rider Backs, Mandolins, etc. BUT, the Vintage Plaid is totally just plain dirty. In an aesthetic sense, these are so many cuts above. Fanning with these is simply amazing, the back design makes it look like an optical illusion. These are great for a gambling presentation, or when you want to add some flair. There are so many design considerations to this deck. I love, love, love the Jokers. you can do a great psychological force and then do a great color change. Great job sirs.

Even before you get your hands on the cards the box is unlike anything seen before with leatherette texture, while the cards themselves are simple yet top quality. The faces of the cards aren't white, the colour is hard to nail down, but it seems to be a pale mint greenish colour, on the California Blue deck this same colour is on the back covered by the blue and brown lines that make up the plaid pattern. The Arizona Red deck has a nice contrast with what looks like a pale yellow colour overlaid with black and red lines. Both decks look simple yet at the same time are just awesomely great!

When these decks were first released I wasn't sure if I should buy them or not because of the none-border. However, I bought some of them to try out, cause I don't want to miss any of D&D's decks. (After I missed the SM v1,2,3 even if I got a chance to buy the v3)

The back of the deck, especially the red-arizona deck, are very magical. In some angle, you will see the red, but in some angle, you will see the deep green. So, the deck is very flashy when it is moving in our hands. About the Arizona-blue, it's a change between brown and blue.

The face of the cards are not white, it's a little green which I thinks that's great for the deck. The box looks very leathery. The decks look simple, but elegant in feel and it's like there are some secrets hidden inside. D&D's deck never disappointed me.

All over back designs are not always the best for doing card magic. But card makers and designers seem to have taken that to mean no one wants all over back designs. Not true! I'm so happy D&D made these all over back design and made them so stylish. All over back designs have their merits, and not just for doing gambling demos. To me they look more grown up, and these particular cards look very, very grown up. What I also love about the look of these cards is that they look like what a normal deck of cards would look like. I do love and own many of the decks on this website, but many of them do look...I don't know...magiciany. These cards look like the kind of cards some stylish man (or woman) would keep around for games. In fact, these are the kinds of cards you could give away as gifts and then use to impress when you come over to visit. They are cards of magician quality the general public might actually use. The only draw back is that, as normal with all over back designs, they are kind of stiff and require a lot of braking in. Well damn, an excuse to use them more.

They are some of the best looking cards ever. They make your hands sexy!

When I saw these cards, I was amazed on the originality of them. When I took them out of the box, they felt amazing, as if handed down from the card experts in the 60s. Nice spring and thickness to the cards. They last for a fairly long amount of time too. My final say, PURCHASE THESE NOW.
