Not sure which rolling paper size to choose? You're not alone. With names like "1 1/4" and "King Size Slim," paper sizing can be confusing. This comprehensive guide breaks down every size so you can make the right choice.

Understanding Rolling Paper Dimensions

Rolling papers are measured in millimeters (mm), with two key dimensions:

  • Length: How long the paper is
  • Width: How wide the paper is (determines joint girth)

Let's explore each size from smallest to largest.

Single Wide Papers

Dimensions: 68mm x 36mm

The smallest standard size, single wide papers are perfect for:

  • Solo smoking sessions
  • Conserving cannabis
  • Quick, personal joints
  • Discreet consumption

Best for: Personal use, micro-dosing, economical smokers

1 1/4 Size Papers

Dimensions: 76mm x 45mm (approximately 25% wider than single wide)

The most popular size worldwide, 1 1/4 papers are the industry standard for good reason:

  • Perfect balance of size and material use
  • Fits 0.5-0.75g comfortably
