Shirt boxes are flat-folding apparel cartons built to hold a folded shirt flush and wrinkle-free from warehouse to shelf, and Crat Packaging produces them as a standard retail presentation box for everyday clothing lines. Unlike rigid keepsake boxes, a shirt box is a folding carton — it ships flat, assembles by hand or machine in seconds, and stacks efficiently for storage and shipping.

A General-Purpose Apparel Presentation Box
Shirt boxes are sized for a standard folded shirt — roughly 11×8.5×2 inches for a men’s dress shirt, adjustable for polos, tees, and kids’ sizes. The flat-fold format is what makes this box a workhorse: it’s the everyday retail carton rather than a bulk-run or wholesale-program product, sized right for a single style needing its own dedicated box.
Use Cases
- Retail apparel shelves displaying folded shirts with a printed lid.
- Boutique clothing lines wanting branded unboxing without rigid-box cost.
- Corporate uniform programs packaging shirts for distribution.
- E-commerce apparel shippers needing a presentable mailer-style box.
Style and Closure Options
Available as a tuck-top mailer box, a two-piece lid-and-base box, or a magnetic-closure box, each die-cut to fit folded garments snugly so shirts arrive crease-free.
Eco-Friendly Shirt Packaging
A 2025 McKinsey & Company survey found over 60% of U.S. consumers pick green packaging when they have the choice. Crat Packaging offers recyclable and FSC-certified board options for shirt boxes, so everyday apparel packaging can carry a sustainability message too.
