Abstract: A packaging case for a folded shirt is in the form of a bag with top and bottom walls and a rigid reinforcement between the wall to prevent crushing of the shirt collar. The reinforcement may be stepped so that there is greater protection for the collar end of the bag. The reinforcement may be defined by stepped rigid side walls of the bag. The shirt may be folded around a frame within the bag and this may comprise top and bottom panels linked by a hinge joint which is curved to avoid creasing of the shirt. The bag has an opening closed by a lid or flap.
