Which Courier Bag Size for a T-Shirt, Kurti, Saree or Shoes? Size by Product

Most courier bag questions are not about the chart, they are about one product: what size do I need for a T-shirt, a kurti, a saree, a pair of shoes? This guide answers that for 30 of the products Indian marketplace sellers ship most, with the Flipkart and Meesho size code next to each one.

Quick answer: one folded T-shirt goes in an 8x10 inch bag (Flipkart SB2, Meesho MB2). A kurti, a saree or two to three T-shirts go in 10x12 (SB3, MB3). Shoes in their box go in 12x16 (SB4, MB4). Anything with a hard edge or over 500 g, use 60 micron.

Shop tamper-proof courier bags from ₹90 for a pack of 50. Plain, Amazon, Flipkart and Meesho printed, 6x8 to 20x24 inch. GST invoice and free shipping across India.

Courier bag size by product

Sizes assume the product is folded or boxed the way it normally ships. If you add an inner polybag or tissue, stay with the same size; if you add a box, go one size up.

Amazon printed bags use the inch size only; there is no Amazon size code. All sizes are stocked in the PAQEE courier bags collection in packs of 50 to 400.

When the answer is a carton, not a bag

  • Rigid items over 1 kg: kitchenware, small appliances, glass.
  • Anything that must not bend: framed prints, hard-cover books in quantity.
  • Items longer than 18 inches on one side.

For everything else a bag is lighter, cheaper and seals in one motion, which is why apparel and accessories sellers run on bags alone.

52 micron or 60 micron?

Use 52 micron for soft goods such as clothing and textiles. Use 60 micron where the contents have a hard edge or weigh over 500 g, where the bag is marketplace printed, or where the courier is rough. The table marks the safer choice for each product. The difference is a few paise per bag and it removes most sorting-cage splits.

Frequently asked questions

What size courier bag for a T-shirt?

8x10 inch for one folded T-shirt, 10x12 inch for two or three. On Flipkart that is SB2 and SB3, on Meesho MB2 and MB3.

What size courier bag for a saree?

10x12 inch for a cotton or synthetic saree folded flat. Heavy silk sarees need 10x14 inch and 60 micron.

What size courier bag for shoes?

12x16 inch when the shoes ship in their box, in 60 micron. Flat sandals without a box fit 10x12 inch.

Can one bag size cover all my products?

Rarely. Most apparel sellers stock two sizes, 8x10 and 10x12, and add 12x16 for bulk orders. Using one large size for everything raises the courier weight slab on small items.

Do you give a GST invoice and ship across India?

Yes. Every order ships with a GST invoice and shipping is free across India.
