Apparel Packaging Boxes for Different Clothing Types
Apparel boxes vary with the garment inside. Below are some common clothing packaging solutions we produce for fashion brands, from everyday basics to premium pieces.
Cardstock Choices for Apparel Boxes
Match the board to the garment. A 300 gsm cardstock suits socks and tees, 350 to 400 gsm boards carry heavier pieces, and specialty stocks such as soft-touch, textured, kraft, or pearlescent cardstock give premium fashion lines a richer feel in hand.
Folding Carton Paper Options
Corrugated Box Materials
Rigid Gift Box Materials
Custom Additional Features for Apparel Boxes
Make your apparel packaging work harder with custom structural elements. Secure closures, integrated inserts, and window cutouts keep garments organized and protected while improving the unboxing experience.
Premium Upgrades for Luxury Apparel Boxes
For high-end clothing and branded apparel, advanced packaging features increase perceived value and create a lasting impression on your customers, making your brand stand out on shelves.
A Wide Range of Custom Finishes for Apparel Boxes
Finishes do more than decorate. Soft-touch lamination echoes the feel of fine fabric, foil stamping makes your logo the hero, and scratch-resistant coatings keep boxes looking new through retail handling and returns.
Printing Options for Apparel Boxes
Our offset presses hold brand colors consistent across large runs, so every box in your clothing collection matches. We match the process to your cardstock, including CMYK offset, Pantone spot colors, metallic inks, UV printing, and white ink on dark or colored stocks.
If you don’t see exactly what you need, our team is here to help. We specialize in creating custom apparel packaging boxes tailored specifically to your product’s needs.

FAQs
What is your minimum order quantity (MOQ)?
The minimum order quantity is 300 units for custom folding cartons, rigid boxes, and corrugated apparel boxes. Different sizes or artwork versions are normally priced as separate SKUs.
How long does custom apparel box production take?
Production typically takes 10–20 days after proof approval. Shipping time depends on your destination and whether you choose air or sea freight.
Which custom apparel box is best for retail, e-commerce, or gifting?
For folded T-shirts and shirts sold in stores, straight tuck end or reverse tuck end cartons are practical and cost-effective. Hang tabs and window cutouts can also be added for retail display.
For online clothing orders, choose a one-piece tuck top box or place a printed folding carton inside a corrugated mailer box. For premium items such as scarves, ties, lingerie, and knitwear, rigid boxes with tissue paper, ribbon, or satin lining create a gift-ready presentation.

How do I choose the right box size for folded garments?
Measure the folded garment’s length, width, and height, then allow approximately 0.25 to 0.5 inch of additional clearance. You can also send us the dimensions or a physical garment sample for a packaging fit test.
Do you offer custom box styles and dieline templates?
Yes. We offer folding cartons, corrugated mailer boxes, rigid boxes, drawer boxes, magnetic closure boxes, and other custom apparel packaging styles. Standard dielines are available through our online quote tool and template page, while custom structures include a personalized dieline.
What artwork files do you accept?
Please provide print-ready PDF files with 3 mm bleed, CMYK colors, embedded or outlined fonts, and high-resolution images. We do not provide graphic design services, but every file receives a free artwork check before production.
What printing options and finishes are available?
Custom apparel boxes can include Pantone colors, white ink, foil stamping, embossing, debossing, spot UV, soft-touch lamination, and other premium finishes. We can also print patterns, messages, garment care instructions, or branding inside the box.
Can I use eco-friendly materials for apparel packaging?
Yes. FSC-certified, recycled, recyclable, and responsibly sourced paper materials are available for custom apparel packaging. Material recommendations depend on the box structure, printing requirements, and sustainability goals of your brand.
Do you provide samples before mass production?
Yes. We offer digital proofs, hard-copy proofs, and finished box samples so you can check the size, colors, materials, printing, and finishes before approving mass production.
Do apparel boxes ship flat, and can they be used for e-commerce delivery?
Folding cartons and corrugated boxes are usually shipped flat to reduce storage space and freight costs. Corrugated mailer boxes can be used for direct-to-customer shipping, while retail folding cartons should normally be placed inside an outer shipping box. Standard rigid boxes arrive assembled, but collapsible rigid boxes are also available.
Can I order multiple sizes or designs together?
Yes. You can order different apparel box sizes, seasonal designs, product collections, or colorways in the same production project. Each size or artwork version is quoted separately, but they can be manufactured and shipped together.
Can you supply matching apparel packaging accessories?
Yes. We can produce matching hang tags, stickers, tissue paper, inserts, ribbons, and custom printed paper bags to create a consistent branded packaging experience.
Do you ship custom apparel boxes worldwide?
Yes. We ship custom apparel boxes worldwide by air and sea freight, including deliveries to the United States, Canada, Europe, Australia, and other international destinations.
