Abstract
A shirt box includes a substrate having a plurality of fold lines including a first set of generally parallel fold lines and a second set of generally parallel fold lines.
Notches extend through the substrate in a first direction. First and second sets of panels are separated from one another by fold lines. The panels are foldable along respective fold lines to define a hollow central cavity for the shirt box and peripheral ends of the shirt box. A bond permanently connects two non-adjacent panels in the first set while double-sided tape members are in adhesive contact with panels in the second set. Removable strips overlie a second side of the double-sided tape members while the shirt box is in a collapsible state, and are removable so as to size the hollow central cavity to receive a shirt or a shirt and tie combination.
