Custom Tie Boxes

Custom Rigid Tie Boxes Perfect Fit & Protection

The tie does not need to be folded to fit in the box. Most gift boxes are very close to square, which is great for a wallet or a watch, but for a long, narrow tie, folding is necessary in order to fit the box. Custom Tie Boxes alleviate this by beginning with the tie’s actual size rather than the size of a standard box; this means that silk stays flat in a longer box or coils in a gentle curve, instead of being folded at a sharp box line.

Silk maintains a crease like paper maintains a fold; it takes on this attribute to a greater degree than with any other accessory category, except for box. That is also why the lining is significant as well as the form: anything the silk catches or rubs against as it slides in and out can be a new source for a crease or snag to begin.

When Does Slim-Profile Construction Matter?

A tie that has been folded into a square box will crease exactly at the fold and not just when the tie is in the box; this may be noticed the first time the tie is worn. The luxury watch boxes constructed to the actual length of the tie eliminate this fold, and even when a compact box is desired, the padding is located at the edge of the box at the fold point rather than the bare edge of the box, allowing the bends in the tie to be made over a soft surface instead of a sharp surface.

This is most important when it comes to silk or other thin weaves, as it’ll be much more noticeable than it will be on a thicker cotton or knit tie. If the box is just slightly too shallow, it causes a similar issue but from a different perspective: the tie will bow or buckle against the lid, even if it isn’t supposed to be folded. A tie folded into a square box creases exactly at the fold and it shows the first time it's worn.

• Box built to the tie's actual length eliminates the fold entirely
• Padding placed at fold points softens any necessary bends, instead of a bare sharp edge
• Especially critical for silk and thin weaves, less noticeable on thicker cotton or knit ties
• A box that's too shallow causes the tie to bow or buckle against the lid

These are the real qualities that Tie Boxes buyers want.

In most cases, it’s the inside rather than the outside that is being judged: Does the tie fold evenly, is the lining smooth so that the sides of silk don’t snag when lifted out of the box, are the sides protected from rubbing against the box during shipment with tissue or a wrap? A box that is neatly closed, but with a crease or snag mark, does not do the job of a rigid box over a plain sleeve. Even the way the tie is rolled in, from the end or in thirds, will alter the amount of stress on any given crease point. A neatly closed box with a crease or snag mark hasn't done its job.

• Buyers check for even folding, smooth lining, and protection against rubbing during shipment
• How the tie is rolled in (from the end or in thirds) changes stress on crease points

A custom-designed tie box can complement a gift set of menswear.

Tie boxes seldom come alone; they are often purchased with luxury watch boxes, cufflink boxes, and wallet boxes in coordinated groups of menswear, and a consistent finish throughout each box in the group is as significant as the finish of each box individually. Even if the tie is part of a set, the tie box maintains its thin shape, as the fold-protection a tie requires does not apply in the same way as it does for a watch or a wallet.

Constructed to fit into anything that needs to lie flat.

This same crease-less design is found in scarves, pocket squares, belts, any flat accessory that tends to crease or kink in the same manner that the tie does if the knot is tied the wrong way. A box that is shaped to the actual length of the item, instead of a template, will solve the same issue across all of them. A wider and flatter cavity is great for a pocket square, and even more noticeable when it’s folded. The same crease-less logic solves the problem for scarves, pocket squares, and belts too.

• Applies to scarves, pocket squares, belts, any flat accessory prone to creasing or kinking
• Cavity shaped to the item's actual length instead of a generic template
• Wider, flatter cavities suit pocket squares especially well

Custom-Looking Printed Rigid Boxes at Volume

If the Tie boxes wholesale seems like a standard box, the interior fit doesn’t matter. Printing with full-color digital or offset printing is complemented by finishes such as foil stamping, embossing, matte and gloss lamination, which stand up to close handling. This is because full production runs are the same slim-profile fit and finish throughout an order; a tie box ordered today is the same as one ordered for next season’s production. If it looks like a standard box on the outside, the interior fit stops mattering.

• Full-color digital or offset printing with foil stamping, embossing, matte or gloss lamination
• Slim-profile fit and finish stay consistent across production runs and future reorders
