Paper Bags for Retail & Fashion
Retail and fashion brands rely on paper bags as an extension of their brand identity. From high-street boutiques to large-format retailers, we supply twisted handle, flat handle, and luxury-finish bags that deliver a premium unboxing experience at scale.
For a fashion retailer, the carry bag is the last touchpoint of the purchase and the first advertisement for the next one — it walks through malls and high streets carrying your logo. That means the bag has to feel as considered as the merchandise: the right paper weight so it doesn't crease, handles that stay comfortable across a shopping trip, and print that matches your brand color exactly, season after season.
What Retail & Fashion Packaging Has to Get Right
The bag is part of the brand, not packaging overhead
A flimsy or off-color bag undercuts a premium purchase. Fashion buyers typically specify 100–120 GSM white kraft with Pantone-matched printing so the in-hand feel matches the price point inside.
Seasonal demand spikes
Festive, wedding, and sale seasons can triple bag consumption. We reserve production capacity for recurring retail buyers so October doesn't run out of what was ordered in August.
Multiple sizes, one look
Apparel needs at least two sizes (folded garments vs boxed footwear or coats). We print the same artwork across sizes in one run so the brand stays consistent across every purchase size.

Retail & Fashion — Common Questions
What size paper bag do I need for clothing?
For folded garments, a Medium square bottom bag (around 25 × 13 × 31 cm) covers most single purchases; boxed footwear and coats need a Large (around 32 × 15 × 41 cm). Most fashion retailers stock two sizes with identical printing — see the size charts on each product page.
What is the minimum order for printed fashion bags?
Custom printed twisted handle bags start at 500 units per size. Most boutiques order 1,000–5,000 per size per run; chains order per-store monthly volumes.
Can you match our exact brand color on kraft paper?
Yes — we print with Pantone-matched inks and proof on your actual paper stock. On brown kraft, colors shift darker, so color-critical brands usually choose white kraft. A physical strike-off sample is available before the full run.
