Tissue and printed interiors turn the open-up into the unboxing moment apparel buyers share online. Ships across the USA with free dieline support, a free 3D mockup, and no setup, plate, or die charges on any size.
For US apparel brands and boutiques whose folded-garment presentation has to look as considered as the clothing itself.

About Custom Shirt Boxes
Present folded apparel cleanly
A shirt box is the flat, shallow box that presents a folded shirt, sweater, or other garment so it looks neat and gift-ready. It has to hold its shape under stacked inventory, frame the folded garment, and feel considered when the lid comes off. We build shirt boxes, from 100 units with no setup, plate, or die charges.
Structure and presentation
- Board weight spec'd to the footprint so the box holds shape under stacked stock.
- A lid-off two-piece build for a clean reveal, or folding-carton for ship-flat economy.
- Tissue, a printed interior, or a belly band add a gift-grade touch.
Where it fits
Apparel retail, ecommerce, and gifting. Sits alongside the wider apparel box range; step up to a rigid or gift box for premium tiers, and ship DTC in a mailer.

Why US brands choose us for custom shirt boxes
Custom Box Printing manufactures custom shirt boxes from our US production facility, with free standard shipping anywhere in the contiguous United States and a 7–10 business day turnaround. We've printed custom shirt boxes for solo founders launching their first product line, growing direct-to-consumer brands placing 5,000-unit runs, and established retail brands with 50,000+ unit production schedules — and we treat all three the same: low MOQs (100-unit runs), free design support, no setup or die-plate charges, and a 3D digital mockup before anything goes to press.
Every custom shirt boxes order includes free in-house dieline and artwork support — our US-based designers will polish your existing files, or build a custom dieline from scratch to fit your exact product dimensions. We send you a 3D mockup to confirm look and proportions before production. For color-critical work, request a physical sample free — let’s talk about a customized sample so you can confirm the look before a full run.

Materials, print, and finish options
Folding cartonboard ships flat to control freight on these large footprints, then sets up into a clean lid-and-base that holds a folded shirt without crushing. Rigid builds suit premium lines that want a substantial lid. Matte and soft-touch lamination give a refined hand-feel; foil or embossing brands the lid. A printed interior or belly band frames the garment, and tissue and inserts complete a share-worthy reveal.
Available finishes include:
- Lamination: Gloss, matte, soft-touch, or velvet finish for a premium hand-feel.
- Foil stamping: Gold, silver, copper, or custom foil colors for high-visibility brand marks.
- Embossing & debossing: Tactile raised or recessed surface effects on logo or key artwork.
- Spot UV: Selective gloss coating that creates contrast against matte areas.
- Eco-friendly options: Recycled kraft, widely recyclable paperboard and water-based inks.
- Compliance: soy-based inks; child-resistant-style constructions for CBD/cannabis on request.
