Custom Garment Boxes & Garment Packaging
Clothing brands lose more money to bad packaging than they realize. A crease down the front of a shirt, a damp corner from a rain soaked courier van, a box that arrives looking tired. Any of it can turn a happy buyer into a refund request. We make garment packaging at ZEE Packaging that actually protects the product and still looks like it belongs to your brand.
Match The Box To The Garment
At ZEE Packaging, we size custom garment boxes around the actual folded product, because T-shirts, shirts, dresses, jackets, and coats all require different box dimensions and depths.
- 10" x 8" x 2" for tee, tank and vest
- 12" x 9" x 2" for shirt, blouse and light knit
- 14" x 10" x 3" for hoodie and sweatshirt, a deeper garment box
- 16" x 12" x 4" for jacket, coat and heavy outerwear
- 8" x 6" x 2" for kidswear and folded shorts
- 6" x 4" x 1" for sock, tie, glove and small accessory
Fold the item the way your packer actually folds it, measure that, and send us the number. Or post us a sample and we will build the garment packaging around it.

Board Talk, Briefly
At ZEE Packaging, you can select kraft or white corrugated, SBS cardstock or rigid greyboard based on the garment weight, box style, print requirements and level of shipping protection needed.
- Kraft corrugated, the workhorse for any shipping garment box
- White corrugated when you want print on a shipper
- SBS C1S and C2S for smooth retail garment packaging
- Rigid greyboard 36pt or 48pt for luxury
- Cardstock 14pt to 24pt for lighter cartons
One thing we tell clients constantly, dont go thin on a mailer. E flute holds shape far better once a courier stacks things on top of it.
The Unboxing Bit
This is free marketing and good garment packaging uses it properly.
- Print the inside of the garment box, a pattern or short note costs little and gets shared
- Soft touch lamination on retail garment boxes
- Foil stamp the logo, gold, silver, rose gold
- Emboss or deboss on kraft
- Spot UV over matte for contrast
- Window patch if you want the fabric visible

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the price for garment packaging boxes?
Rough estimate is $0.40 to $1.10 per unit for folding cartons, $0.95 to $2.40 for mailers and $2.20 to $5.50 for rigid at moderate quantity. Shipping included. This is estimate only, so ask our team for an exact quote.
Will my white box arrive scuffed?
Uncoated white does mark easily. Matte lamination resists scuff and finger marks much better, and we suggest it on any white garment packaging going through courier.
Can you print inside the lid?
Yes and we push for it. Interior print is one of the cheapest ways to make an opening feel considered.
Is kraft cardstock strong enough for a coat?
Not really. For outerwear we move clients onto corrugated kraft, it holds weight without bowing.
Do you supply tissue and stickers too?
We do. Lots of brands order boxes, tissue and seals in one job so the colors match across all of it.
How do we stop the item sliding around?
Right sizing solves most of it. Tissue and a belly band handle the rest cheaply.
Do you do labels and hang tags as well?
We do, and plenty of clients order them alongside the garment box so everything matches.
