The Story Behind Outlaw Cards

I'm Ben, the founder and person behind Outlaw Cards.

I started the business in Kent in 2025, inspired by a genuine interest in playing cards, their artwork, history, design and craftsmanship.

What began as an interest in discovering unusual decks has grown into an independent online shop offering hundreds of different designs.

One thing that quickly became apparent was just how many remarkable playing cards existed beyond those commonly found in UK shops.

From traditional European manufacturers to independent artists producing elaborate collector editions, the world of playing cards is far more varied than most people realise.

I wanted to bring more of those decks together in one place, making them easier for UK customers to discover and buy.

That idea became Outlaw Cards.

Wanted Since 2025.

An Extensive Bicycle Playing Card Collection

Bicycle playing cards are one of the largest and fastest-growing parts of Outlaw Cards.

With approximately 140 different Bicycle designs and new decks regularly being added, our collection goes well beyond the familiar Rider Back playing cards.

The range includes traditional favourites, themed playing cards, artistic designs, premium collector editions and unusual releases that aren't always easy to find from UK retailers.

Whether you're a dedicated Bicycle collector, a magician, a card player or simply looking for a distinctive deck, there's a wide selection to explore.

We're continually expanding our Bicycle range, with the aim of making Outlaw Cards a go-to destination for Bicycle playing cards in the UK.

Piatnik: Art, History and Traditional Playing Cards

Piatnik is another important and expanding part of our collection.

Founded in Vienna, Austria, Piatnik is a historic playing card manufacturer known for its traditional card-making heritage and wide variety of artistic, historical and themed designs.

Our growing selection includes playing cards celebrating famous artists, historical events, classic illustrations and cultural subjects, alongside traditional decks for bridge and other card games.

With another 25–30 Piatnik lines planned over the coming weeks, we're continuing to develop this collection for customers who appreciate distinctive European playing cards.

From beautiful works of art to practical everyday decks, Piatnik offers something for both collectors and card players.

Lingo Playing Cards: An Expanding Specialist Range

Lingo is another speciality at Outlaw Cards.

With over 50 different Lingo lines, our growing collection covers much of the brand's catalogue.

Lingo's distinctive themed playing cards make interesting gifts, conversation pieces and additions to a collection.

We're continuing to expand the range, with the aim of offering UK customers an extensive choice of Lingo designs in one place.

King Star, Hidden Light and Premium Collector Decks

One of the most exciting parts of modern playing card collecting is discovering the work of specialist international designers and publishers.

Our expanding King Star and Hidden Light collections reflect this interest in premium playing cards, imaginative artwork and distinctive presentation.

Collector decks can feature custom court cards, elaborate illustrations, embossed tuck boxes, metallic or holographic foils, gilded edges and unusual printing techniques.

Some releases are produced in limited quantities, while others can become difficult to source after their initial release.

Outlaw Cards actively looks for interesting premium and harder-to-find playing cards, helping UK collectors discover releases that may not be widely available through mainstream retailers.

And while some collector decks are elaborate and expensive, collecting doesn't have to be. An affordable deck with unusual artwork or an interesting story can be just as enjoyable.

There's always room for one more deck.

Independent Playing Card Designers

Independent artists, smaller publishers and specialist design studios are an important part of Outlaw Cards.

Some of the most imaginative playing cards available today come from creators working outside the major manufacturers.

These decks often combine illustration, typography, graphic design and specialist printing techniques to produce something genuinely different.

From completely custom court cards and original back designs to striking packaging and unusual themes, independent designers continue to push the boundaries of what a deck of playing cards can be.

We stock a broad selection of independently designed playing cards and actively look for new creators, interesting projects and unusual releases from around the world.

Supporting smaller designers and introducing their work to UK customers is an important part of what Outlaw Cards is about.

Double Deck Playing Card Sets

Outlaw Cards also offers an extensive selection of double-deck playing card sets, including traditional, artistic, historical and themed designs.

Double decks contain two coordinated packs of playing cards and are particularly useful for bridge and other games played with two decks.

They can also make attractive gifts, especially when presented in decorative boxes featuring original artwork or classic illustrations.

Our collection brings together practical everyday sets and more unusual designs, offering a wide choice for bridge players, collectors and gift buyers.

COPAG, Fournier and Quality Playing Cards for Everyday Use

Alongside our collector ranges, Outlaw Cards offers a growing selection of high-quality playing cards designed for regular use, including decks from respected manufacturers such as COPAG, Fournier, Modiano, Bicycle and Piatnik.

COPAG Playing Cards

COPAG is a well-established playing card manufacturer particularly associated with professional-quality playing cards and durable 100% plastic decks.

Our COPAG selection includes playing cards suitable for poker, bridge and other card games, with options for customers who value durability, handling and reliable performance.

Fournier Playing Cards

Fournier is a historic Spanish playing card manufacturer known for producing traditional and professional-quality playing cards.

Our Fournier range includes playing cards for poker, bridge and everyday games, offering customers a choice of traditional paper decks and durable plastic options.

Poker, Bridge and Everyday Card Games

Outlaw Cards stocks a broad variety of playing cards for regular gameplay, including poker-size and bridge-size decks, standard and jumbo indexes, paper playing cards and 100% plastic decks.

Whether you're looking for professional-quality plastic playing cards, a traditional European deck or an affordable pack for family card games, we aim to offer reliable choices from established manufacturers.

Our goal is to make Outlaw Cards a destination for both playing card collectors and people who simply want excellent cards to play with.

Novelty, Themed and Unusual Playing Cards

Playing cards can celebrate almost any subject imaginable.

Alongside traditional designs, Outlaw Cards offers a wide variety of novelty and themed decks featuring subjects such as art, history, animals, travel, fantasy, horror, films, television, gaming and popular culture.

Some are humorous, some are beautifully illustrated, and others celebrate particular interests, places or historical events.

These decks can make unusual gifts, but they're also a fascinating part of playing card collecting.

One of the pleasures of running Outlaw Cards is finding a design that makes you stop and think:

I haven't seen that before.

Researching the Playing Cards We Sell

I personally research and prepare the product listings at Outlaw Cards.

Where reliable information is available, I aim to include useful details such as the manufacturer, card count, size, index, material, finish, country of manufacture and special design features.

For premium and collectible releases, that may also include information about artwork, tuck-box construction, metallic foils, gilding, embossing and printing techniques.

These details matter, particularly when customers are comparing similar decks or choosing something for a collection.

The aim is to provide accurate, useful information rather than relying on generic product descriptions.

As the catalogue grows, I continue reviewing and improving the information available throughout the shop.

Independent, UK-Based and Personally Run

Outlaw Cards is a small independent business based in Kent, England, not a large anonymous marketplace.

I personally manage the day-to-day running of the shop, from sourcing new playing cards and maintaining the catalogue to preparing orders and helping customers.

All playing cards shown as available are stocked in the UK, with orders dispatched from Kent.

My priorities are straightforward: interesting products, fair prices, accurate descriptions, careful packaging, reliable dispatch and genuine customer service.

If you have a question about a deck or something doesn't go as expected, you're dealing with a real person who knows the business and cares about getting things right.

I want Outlaw Cards to feel like a specialist shop, not simply a catalogue of products.

Discover Your Next Favourite Deck

Outlaw Cards continues to grow, with new designs, established brands, independent creators and specialist releases regularly joining the collection.

My long-term ambition is to build one of the UK's most interesting and useful places to discover playing cards.

Some customers come looking for a particular Bicycle design. Others want traditional Piatnik playing cards, a distinctive Lingo deck, a premium King Star or Hidden Light release, professional-quality COPAG or Fournier cards, a double-deck bridge set or something from an independent designer they've never encountered before.

Whatever brings you here, I hope you'll find something interesting.

Thank you for visiting Outlaw Cards and for supporting an independent UK business.

Welcome to Outlaw Cards. Find your next favourite deck.
