Custom shirt boxes are flat, wide boxes made to hold a folded shirt so it arrives looking the way it left the store. They are shallow by design: just deep enough for the shirt and a sheet of paper, so the fold stays crisp and the collar keeps its shape. Printed with your logo, a shirt box turns a plain purchase into something that feels ready to give as a gift.
They are part of our apparel packaging range, alongside deeper garment boxes for knitwear, dresses and suits.
| Style | How it opens | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Two-piece gift box | Lid lifts off a base | Dress shirts, blouses, store gifts |
| Mailer box | Hinged lid with tuck flaps | T-shirts and merch sold online |
| Rigid box | Lift-off or magnetic lid | Premium shirts, gift sets, launches |
| Box with window | Clear film window in the lid | Retail shelves where the print should show |
Two-piece boxes are the classic look; see our two-piece apparel boxes. If most of your shirts ship to customers, a corrugated mailer box is stronger in the mail.
Every box is cut to your folded shirt, but these inside sizes are common starting points:
| What goes inside | Typical inside size (inches) | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Folded T-shirt | about 12 × 10 × 2 | Merch, band and event shirts |
| Folded dress shirt or blouse | about 15 × 10 × 2 | The classic gift shirt box |
| Polo or heavier tee | about 14 × 11 × 2.5 | Thicker fabric needs a little more depth |
| 2–3 shirt set | about 15 × 11 × 3–4 | Multi-packs and gift bundles |
Fold one shirt the way you will pack it, then measure its length, width and thickness. Add a little room on each side so the shirt slides in without crushing the fold.
Print shops, merch brands and online clothing stores often need a T-shirt box that is light, ships flat and survives the mail. A printed mailer box does all three, and printing inside the lid adds a message customers see the moment they open it. For larger orders that need more protection, see our apparel shipping boxes.
Boutiques and menswear stores use shirt boxes at the counter for gifts, especially for holidays, Father's Day and weddings. A white or kraft box with a one-color logo looks clean and costs less to print, while a full-color wrap or foil logo suits premium brands. For gift sets with ties, socks or other accessories, our apparel gift boxes come in deeper sizes.
