Sizing

Sizes that fit folded clothing.

Clothing is soft, so the risk isn’t breakage — it’s oversized boxes that waste shipping money and arrive looking empty. Fold the garment the way you pack it, add tissue, then measure.

Item (folded) Typical mailer inside size
1 T-shirt 10 × 8 × 2 in
2–3 T-shirts or 1 hoodie 12 × 10 × 3 in
Jeans or knitwear 14 × 10 × 4 in
Lingerie set 10 × 7 × 2 in, often a two-piece or magnetic box
Sneakers 13 × 9 × 5 in shoe box, shipped inside an outer carton

Since July 12, 2026, USPS joined UPS and FedEx in using a dimensional-weight divisor of 139 and rounding each dimension up to the next whole inch for parcels over one cubic foot. A box that’s just over a size threshold can now cost noticeably more — another reason to size mailers tightly.

Returns

Making returns easier (and cheaper).

Fashion has high return rates, and the box often gets a second trip. A tear strip lets the customer open the box cleanly without a knife, and a second peel-and-seal adhesive strip lets them reseal it for the return. That saves you sending replacement packaging, and the box arrives back intact enough to reuse or recycle.

Pair it with a printed note inside the lid explaining how to return — fewer support emails, happier customers.

Fold the garment the way you’ll ship it and measure; tissue and inserts add a little depth.

Returns

Plan for returns.

Apparel has high return rates in e-commerce. A mailer with a second adhesive strip or a reusable tuck closure lets customers send items back in the original box, which saves them hassle and saves you buying return packaging.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What size box do I need for a T-shirt?

A single folded T-shirt usually fits a 10 × 8 × 2 inch mailer; two or three tees or a hoodie need around 12 × 10 × 3 inches. Fold the garment as you pack it and measure with tissue.

Can you print inside clothing boxes?

Yes. Inside print — a pattern, logo or message under the lid — is one of the most popular upgrades for apparel mailers.

Do you make shoe boxes?

Yes, in printed SBS or corrugated, sized to your shoes, plus outer shipping cartons.

What is a tear strip?

A perforated strip that opens the box cleanly without scissors. Combined with a second adhesive strip, it lets customers reseal the box for returns.

Can you include branded tissue paper?

Yes. Custom tissue paper is part of our accessories range — ask for it on your quote.
