Paper bags for footwear

Shoe boxes are the reason most retail bags fail: heavy, rigid and awkward, and customers often leave with two.

The job

What the bag has to do here

The bag is built around the largest box on the shelf, not an average one. Measure that box, add a little, and the bag works for everything below it.

Weight is the other half: two boxes is a few kilos swinging from a handle, so 250gsm board with a rope or external folded handle is the usual specification.

  • Base sized to the largest box you stock
  • Handles that take two boxes without tearing
  • Flat base so the bag stands at the counter
  • Stacks flat in a stockroom

kraft paper bags

Unbleached brown kraft is where most Australian retailers land: it takes a logo cleanly, it carries weight, and it goes out with the paper recycling.

Questions

Before you order

+ What size bag fits a shoe box?
Measure your largest box and we build the bag around it. Most land between 320 x 140 x 420mm and 450 x 170 x 480mm.
+ Can one bag cover boots and sneakers?
Usually, if it is sized on the boot box. We will check the dimensions before quoting.

Yes, front and back, and on machine made bags the gussets as well.
