When to Choose Mailer Style Shoe Boxes
A mailer style shoe box is built to travel. It is a one-piece box with an attached lid that closes firmly, so it can go straight to the customer without a carton around it. It suits online shoe stores, subscriptions and any brand that wants the box the customer receives to be the branded box.
Choose it over a one-piece or a lid and base box when the box ships on its own and has to survive the trip. Choose the others when the shoe box goes inside a carton or is handed to the customer in a store. Our free rectangular shoe box and folding shoe box dielines show shoe-sized versions, and our mailer dielines, such as the roll end mailer and the standard mailer, show the general patterns. Your quote confirms the style for shoes.
What to Look for in Mailer Style Shoe Boxes
- Strength for the trip. The box has to protect the shoes in transit. Tell us how the box ships and how heavy the shoes are.
- Fit inside. Shoes should not slide around. Ask about tissue or an insert that holds them still.
- Closure. The lid closes to keep the box shut. Ask which closure suits shoes and how easy it is for the customer to open.
- Outside printing. The outside is the first thing the customer sees, so plan the branding for the front and the lid.
- Returns. Some stores ask customers to send shoes back in the same box. Tell us if the box has to close again easily.
Where Mailer Style Shoe Boxes Are Used
- Online shoe stores. One branded box from the warehouse to the door.
- Subscriptions and shoe clubs. A box that arrives on a schedule.
- Direct to consumer brands. A box that doubles as the brand's first impression.
- Pre-orders and limited releases. Boxes shipped to customers who waited for them.
Artwork and Printing Tips
- Put the logo on the lid. It is the largest flat area on the box.
- Use the inside of the lid for a message, care tips or return instructions.
- Keep text away from the folds and from the closure.
- If the box ships alone, leave a flat area on the outside for a shipping label.
- Place your artwork on the dieline before you approve the layout.
