Choose Your Shoe Boxes Style

Each style has its own page with sizes, specs and options.

What to Look for in Shoe Boxes

A shoe box is picked up, opened and stored many times, so it has to hold its shape and still look good on a shelf or in a customer's hands.

Shoe type and size. Sneakers, boots, heels, sandals and kids' shoes need different lengths, widths and heights. Measure the largest pair you sell in the box, and tell us the range of sizes.
One size or a size range. Many brands use one box size for most of the line and a bigger one for boots. Tell us how many box sizes you need.
Box style. We make shoe boxes as a one-piece box with a hinged lid, a lid and base box, a drawer style box and a mailer style box for shipping. Each feels different in the hand, so pick the one that fits how you sell.
A window. A clear window in the lid lets customers see the shoe before they open the box. Ask about it if you want the shoe visible.
Handles. Rope handles can be added to a shoe box, so customers carry it like a bag. Tell us if you want them.
Strength and stacking. Shoe boxes are often stacked in a stockroom or shipped in a carton. Tell us how many boxes sit on top of each other and how the box travels.
Inside the box. Tissue paper, a paper insert or a printed inside keep the shoes in place and make opening the box feel special. Ask about the options for your product.

Where Shoe Boxes Are Used

Footwear brands selling sneakers, boots, heels or kids' shoes in their own box.
Online shoe stores that ship shoes in a branded box inside a carton.
Small designers and resellers that want a box with their logo instead of the maker's box.
Gift and limited edition releases where the box is part of the product.

Artwork and Printing Tips for Shoe Boxes

The lid is the largest flat area. A logo and a short line of text on it usually works better than a busy pattern.
Keep important text and the logo away from the folds, the lid edge and any thumb hole.
Print the shoe size, style name and color on a label area or a side panel, so stockroom staff can find the right box quickly.
A printed inside, such as a pattern or a short message, makes the box feel finished when the lid opens.
Ask for a layout and place your artwork on it before you approve. Ask about foil stamping, embossing or spot UV if you want a premium look.

Planning Your Order

Measure the shoe at its longest, widest and tallest points, with the laces tied, and decide how much space you want around it. The measuring guide shows which side counts as length, width and height, and our free shoe box dieline templates show the flat patterns of hinged lid, folding, rectangular and rope handle shoe boxes.

Test a sample with a real pair of shoes before you order many boxes. You can start with the Standard Sample Kit, which is $50 with shipping included, or pick another type from the Samples page. Your quote gives the pricing and minimums.
