Yes, tags can also have a string added to them. You can choose from a variety of options like standard strings or elastic strings. You can also contact our support team to have a color of your choice added to your requirements.

How can I review a proof before printing?

We will send a digital proof for your approval before the final printing process. Please note that the proofs need to be reviewed very carefully in order to fix any spelling or artwork errors. Once approved, the proofs will be printed as is. The printed colors are based on the CMYK or Pantone values specified in the design file and may vary substantially from the proof colors when viewed any particular computer screen. Hard copy proofs are also available at an additional cost in order to preview the exact color and artwork placement before committing to larger order.

Can branded tags be printed on both sides?

Yes. Custom branded tags can have printing on both sides.

Is there a setup fee for personalized tags?

No. There are no setup fees, no plate fees, and no minimum order quantities. You will be quoted one simple price. Higher quantity orders do result in lower per unit prices due to efficiencies gained in printing larger quantities in a single run.

Is white considered a printing color?

The simple answer is that it depends. White color is typically not considered a separate color for most orders. As white is the default color of paper, it is simply recognized as the absence of any ink. However, when using colored paper for particular projects, white ink may be used if any text or graphic requires it.

Is my artwork checked for errors and technical issues such as image resolution?

Yes, we perform a free artwork check before an order is sent for printing. If we find any issues, we will either fix them or contact you if further action is needed. Please do note that this is only a technical check. Any spelling, grammatical, or positioning issues are not checked during this process.

Do you need a specific file format for my order?

AI, CDR, PSD, PDF or EPS vector based editable files are preferred in order to produce the best quality of print output. When it comes to a photographic content, the images need to be at minimum 300 DPI. If you have any questions in regards to file preparation, please feel free to contact your account representative.

Custom Clothing Tags for Fashion & Apparel Brands

Custom clothing tags are an essential branding component for fashion and apparel businesses. Custom-printed clothing tags play a critical role in branded apparel packaging that enhances brand identity. Printed apparel tags enhance product presentation and communicate key product details across retail and online channels. Whether you operate a startup fashion label, a streetwear brand, or a large-scale apparel manufacturer, high-quality custom clothing tags enhance perceived value and create a consistent brand identity. Beyond aesthetics, clothing tags serve a practical commercial purpose by clearly communicating size, fabric composition, care instructions, pricing, and barcodes. In both retail stores and online marketplaces, a well-designed hang tag elevates a simple garment into a polished, retail-ready product that leaves a lasting and memorable impression.

Types of Custom Clothing Tags for Fashion Brands

Clothing tags vary depending on garment type, brand positioning, retail channel, and regulatory requirements. From everyday hang tags to specialized care and woven labels, choosing the right tag format ensures your apparel looks professional while delivering clear product information. The main types of clothing tags used in the fashion industry include retail hang tags, woven labels, printed fabric labels, heat transfer tags, and specialty luxury or eco-friendly tags.

Retail Hang Tags for Apparel:

Retail hang tags are the most commonly used clothing tags in the fashion industry. Attached with string, ribbon, metal eyelets, or plastic fasteners, they provide immediate brand visibility in retail environments. Custom hang tags typically display your logo, size, price, barcode, and key product highlights. Available in various shapes, thicknesses, and finishes, hang tags are ideal for boutiques, department stores, e-commerce brands, and private label collections seeking strong presentation and brand consistency.

Folded Clothing Tags for Product Information:

Folded clothing tags offer additional space for detailed information while maintaining a clean exterior design. They are commonly used for:

Care instructions
Fabric composition
Country of origin
Sustainability statements
Brand storytelling

Folded apparel tags are especially useful for technical apparel, premium garments, and products that require regulatory information.

Woven Labels for Garment Branding:

Woven labels are stitched directly into garments and are widely used for brand identification. Made from polyester, cotton, or damask threads, they provide durability and a premium finish. Printed woven labels are ideal for neck branding, hem tags, and signature placements in streetwear, luxury fashion, and activewear collections.

Printed Fabric Labels for Care Instructions:

Printed clothing labels primarily display care instructions, size details, and essential garment information in a clear, durable format. Fabric labels are a cost-effective solution for high-volume apparel production, offering consistent print quality and long-lasting performance. Available in satin, cotton, and heat-transfer formats, these labels can be sewn into garments for a clean professional finish.

Heat Transfer Tags:

Heat transfer tags are applied directly onto the inside of garments using heat and pressure, eliminating the need for a sewn-in label. This method creates a smooth, tag-free finish that enhances wearer comfort while maintaining clear branding, sizing, and care information. Commonly used in sportswear, activewear, underwear, and children’s clothing.

Size Tags and Barcode Stickers:

Small size indicators and barcode stickers are essential for retail inventory management. These barcode tags support efficient stocking, scanning, and sales tracking, particularly for wholesale clothing operations.

Luxury Clothing Tags for Premium Brands:

Premium fashion brands often enhance clothing tags with specialty finishes to elevate presentation. Popular options include:

Foil stamping in metallic shades
Embossing and debossing
Spot UV coating
Soft-touch lamination

These finishing techniques create a tactile experience that communicates quality and exclusivity.

Eco-Friendly Clothing Tags for Sustainable Brands:

Sustainable apparel brands increasingly choose environmentally responsible tag materials. Options include recycled kraft paper, FSC-certified paperboard, biodegradable strings, and reduced-ink printing methods. Eco-friendly clothing tags align with modern consumer expectations while supporting responsible sourcing practices.

Custom Clothing Tag Materials, Printing & Finishing Options

Most custom clothing tags are produced on 250gsm to 400gsm cardstock, selected based on durability requirements and desired brand positioning. Material selection varies by garment type, target market, and overall budget, ensuring the right balance between strength, presentation, and cost efficiency.

Offset printing is typically preferred for large-volume clothing tag production due to its consistency and cost-effectiveness, while digital printing is better suited for short runs, sampling, or seasonal collections. Pantone color matching supports precise brand consistency, helping maintain uniformity across an entire apparel line.

To enhance retail impact, clothing tags can be manufactured in fully custom sizes and die-cut shapes, including round, square, oval, and distinctive branded silhouettes. Finishing options such as matte lamination, gloss coating, and soft-touch lamination add visual depth and a premium tactile feel.

Additional customization features may include:

Single or double-sided printing
QR codes and barcodes for retail scanning
Custom strings, ribbons, plastic fasteners, or metal eyelets
Variable data printing for batch or inventory tracking

Together, these material selections, printing techniques, and finishing enhancements enable fashion brands to create durable, retail-ready clothing tags that strengthen brand identity and elevate overall product presentation.

Custom clothing tags are designed to support a wide range of fashion and apparel businesses, including streetwear brands, luxury fashion labels, activewear companies, children’s clothing brands, private label manufacturers, and sustainable fashion startups. Whether you need wholesale clothing tags for large production runs or smaller quantities for seasonal or limited collections, we provide flexible manufacturing solutions tailored to your requirements. With scalable production capacity and customizable options, we help apparel brands of all sizes create professional, retail-ready garment tags that enhance product presentation and strengthen brand identity.
