Custom Apparel Boxes & Shoe Box Packaging

Lightweight rigid and corrugated boxes sized for garments and footwear, with tissue and band options.

Apparel packaging balances presentation against weight: heavy boxes raise parcel cost on a category with high return rates and thin margins.

We use lighter board grades with reinforced corners to keep the premium feel without the freight penalty, plus printed tissue, belly bands and stickers to complete the set.

What This Category Has to Solve

Freight weight

Optimised board grades and E-flute alternatives to rigid board cut parcel weight while keeping structural rigidity.

High return rates

Reusable closures and easy-reseal structures make returns painless for the customer and cheaper for you to process.

Size proliferation

A shared structure across a size range with only the tray depth changing keeps tooling cost proportionate to the SKU count.

What drives your unit price

Everything here is made to order, so there is no list price. These four decisions set it:

Structure: A rigid box is hand-assembled; a folding carton is die-cut and glued in one pass. This is usually the largest single factor.
Board and material: Greyboard, SBS, kraft or corrugated behave differently on cost, and specialty paper or fabric wraps sit above all of them.
Finishing: Foil, embossing, spot UV and soft-touch each add a pass. One well-placed process usually beats three competing ones.
Quantity: Make-ready is charged once whether you run 500 or 50,000, so unit price falls steeply across the first few thousand.
