Compare the Pride D20 Snap Tray and the Leatherette & Velvet Dice Tray on portability, surface feel, and price to pick the right portable dice tray for your table.
Quick answer
Choose the Pride D20 Snap Tray if you want a colorful, packable tray with a rainbow design and a leatherette rolling surface. Choose the Leatherette & Velvet Dice Tray if you prefer a quieter, softer velvet interior and a lower price.
How the two trays differ in portability and setup
Both trays use strong metal snap buttons to stay flat for travel and snap together when you're ready to play. That means neither has a real edge in packability based on the supplied facts—both are collapsible and designed for the traveling player or Dungeon Master. The difference is in the surface you roll on and the look you bring to the table.
Surface feel: leatherette vs velvet
The Pride D20 Snap Tray is made with durable leatherette, which gives dice a firm, consistent surface for rolling. The Leatherette & Velvet Dice Tray pairs a dark gray faux-leather exterior with a silver velvet interior, so dice land on a softer, quieter surface. Neither fact tells you which rolls more randomly—dice randomness depends on the dice and the throw, not the tray material—so pick based on the feel and sound you prefer.
Price and design trade-offs
At catalog prices, the Leatherette & Velvet Dice Tray is the lower-cost option, while the Pride D20 Snap Tray costs more and adds a rainbow pride design. If budget is the deciding factor, the velvet tray wins; if you want a tray that makes a visual statement, the rainbow snap tray is the one to pick. Note that the velvet tray does not include the dice pictured, so plan to supply your own.
Key trade-offs to weigh
- Portability: Both trays are collapsible with metal snaps, so portability is a tie. Choose based on other factors.
- Rolling surface: Leatherette (Pride D20) offers a firm, consistent surface; velvet (Leatherette & Velvet) offers a softer, quieter roll. If you dislike loud dice clatter, the velvet tray is the better fit.
- Price vs design: The Leatherette & Velvet tray is the lower-cost choice; the Pride D20 Snap Tray costs more and adds a rainbow design. Set a budget first, then decide if the rainbow look is worth the extra cost.
- Included accessories: The Leatherette & Velvet tray does not include the pictured dice; the Pride D20 tray's included items are not specified in the supplied facts. Check what comes in the box before you buy if you need dice included.
