Rolling Paper Sizes Explained: From Single Wide to King Size
Find the perfect paper size for every smoking occasion
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.
