Apparel Packaging Boxes for Fashion, Footwear & Accessories

In fashion, packaging does more than protect — it defines how customers experience your brand. This category brings together a wide range of apparel packaging boxes, from custom clothing cartons and luxury shoe boxes to hat packaging and accessory gift boxes. Whether you’re an independent boutique or a nationwide retailer, Healey Packaging supplies solutions that keep products secure, retail-ready, and true to your brand identity.

Packaging That Works Across the Apparel Industry

The term “apparel” covers more than just clothing — and so does our packaging. Within this category, you’ll find:

• Clothing packaging boxes for shirts, trousers, dresses, and outerwear
• Shoe boxes in rigid, folding, or corrugated formats
• Hat boxes designed to protect shape during storage and transit
• Accessory boxes for ties, belts, scarves, or jewellery pieces
• Luxury apparel gift boxes for high-end retail and seasonal launches
• Wholesale apparel cartons for warehouses and distributors

Clothing Packaging: Retail and Wholesale

Fashion retailers rely on presentation. A custom apparel box with logo doesn’t just keep garments folded neatly — it adds a layer of perceived value. For e-commerce sellers, garment packing boxes cut down on creasing and reduce returns. And for wholesalers, corrugated cartons ensure large volumes arrive in perfect condition.

Shoe and Footwear Boxes

Footwear packaging needs to be durable enough for stacking and transport, but stylish enough for shop displays. We manufacture cardboard shoe boxes for everyday use, luxury rigid shoe boxes for premium brands, and wholesale packaging for large-scale distribution. Optional extras include branded lids, pull-out drawers, and eco-friendly kraft stock.

Hat and Accessory Packaging

Hats, scarves, ties, and belts all demand their own packaging approach. A hat box has to maintain shape and protect delicate materials, while a clothes organiser box or small rigid carton is ideal for folded accessories. For ties and belts, slim drawer-style boxes with windows allow customers to see the product before purchase.

Branding and Printing Options

Apparel packaging is one of the first branded touchpoints customers encounter. That’s why we offer:

• Printed apparel boxes with CMYK or Pantone colour
• Packaging finishes including foil stamping, embossing, and soft-touch coating
• Window cut-outs for shoes, ties, or folded garments
• Minimalist kraft options for eco-focused fashion ranges

Materials and Sustainability

Packaging in fashion is under scrutiny for sustainability, which is why we prioritise responsibly sourced stocks. Choose from:

• Kraft paperboard boxes for recyclable, biodegradable packaging
• Rigid boards for high-end luxury apparel boxes
• Corrugated apparel boxes for bulk distribution and storage
• FSC®-certified paper for brands with sustainability targets

All our apparel box packaging is compliant with UK and EU standards, including food-safe inks where relevant for retail environments.

Scalability for Start-Ups and Established Retailers

Not every business needs the same run sizes. We keep low MOQs from 100 units, giving small brands and boutiques the chance to launch with professional packaging. At the same time, our capacity scales up to 100,000+ apparel boxes wholesale, keeping costs competitive for larger retailers and distributors.

FAQs About Apparel Packaging

Can you supply both clothing and shoe packaging in one order?

Yes. Many of our fashion clients order mixed runs — for example, rigid shoe boxes alongside folding cartons for garments.

Are luxury apparel boxes eco-friendly?

They can be. We offer recyclable, FSC®-certified stocks and sustainable finishes, even for premium rigid packaging.

Do you provide short-run apparel boxes for new collections?

Absolutely. We start from 100 units, which is ideal for seasonal launches or limited-edition lines.

Can accessories like ties or belts have custom-sized boxes?

Yes. We create bespoke dielines to fit each product so it arrives undamaged and well-presented.

Do you ship apparel packaging outside the UK?

Yes, we deliver across the EU and internationally. Many of our wholesale clients distribute overseas.

Can I see and feel a sample before I place a big order?

Without a doubt. In fact, we insist on it. Placing a large order blind is a nightmare. We’ll produce a physical sample for you to approve, so you can check the quality, colour, and construction for yourself.
