I just dont like the MFSL inner sleeves..

I don't like 'em either. Too flimsy to slide back in without a fuss. I prefer the thick HDPE sleeves (Diskeeper 2). Slide back in real easy, and I can read the labels...both of 'em, without pulling the record out of the sleeve.
 
I've been using the Sleeve City "Diskeeper™ Ultimate Audiophile Inner Sleeves". 2nd ones down on the link above.

312NLPS Diskeeper Ultimate Audiophile Inner Sleeves (50 Pack)

These are not cheap but are the best I've ever used.
 
I love the Disckeeper Audiophile inner sleeve, as I used to love the discwasher VRP sleeves. The Mobile Fidelity sleeves are simillar.

I am also a fan of those Longeines Symphony box sets that always get trashed at the thrift shop after a week. I have been know to snag some of their poly lined sleeves!
 
They seem a teeny tiny bit bigger than Discwasher sleeves.....which I have no problem getting back into the jacket. The MSFL sleeves are a bit of a pain, but I don't hate them.
 
We all know that we shouldn't touch the record on the playing surface, but this is equally important when we handle the sleeve and jacket when the record is in them.

Handling a flimsy sleeve only by the corners is much trickier than one that's stiff. The jacket is thick cardboard for a reason; a thick sleeve further protects the record.
 
My last order from Sleevtown was for the new Ulitimate version. I like the double paper layers and for 6 cents I'll keep ordering them. If I have a tighter jacket (usually older LP's) I just put it in the outer sleeve.
 
I'll add another vote for the Diskeeper Ultimate Audiophile Inner Sleeves. 6 total layers makes for a sufficiently stiff sleeve to me.

I store my records outside the album jacket to reduce ringwear but they run probably 1/4" to 1/2" longer than the record (which I like since it completely covers the record) so I could see how they may not fit inside all album jackets.
