The Final Touch: Custom Apparel Tags

Create the perfect final touch with custom hang tags, printed tags, or hem tags.

Custom apparel allows individuals and businesses to express their unique identity and brand. The possibilities for customization are endless, from t-shirts and hoodies to hats and bags. 

We know a thing or two about that, given that we're a custom apparel company if you didn't know. *wink wink*

While design and quality are crucial, the tag is an often overlooked element that adds a personal touch to custom apparel. 

We'll explore the importance of tags, how they contribute to the overall branding and customer experience, and some of the tag customization options offered here at Real Thread. 

When it comes to tags, what can Real Thread offer?

Tag removal:

Get rid of annoying tags on your products using tagless clothing labels.

There are two tag types: Sewn-in labels and tear-away tags. Sewn-in labels have to be removed by a sewing machine. Anyone can easily tear tear-away tags out. 

Removing tear-away tags won't cost you any extra, and Next Level Apparel offers a few of our favorite styles with that option: 3600, 6210, 6240, 3633, 3200, 3533, and 6633.

Now that the label is out of your way, mock up your branded tagless clothing label design with this to-scale tag template and visualize how your design will look once it's been printed! 

Hem tags:

Hem tags are a fashionable, attention-grabbing feature to add to the bottom seam or shirt sleeve.

Our sewn hem tags are a fashionable, attention-grabbing add-on that gives your shirts or sweaters a higher quality feel while making your brand instantly recognizable.

Hem tags are commonly placed on your apparel's hip, neck, sleeve, or hoodie pockets.

Hang tags:

Share more of your brand story with your customer by adding custom hang tags. Branded hang tags instantly help elevate your shirts from good to professional apparel. 

Use hang tags to display relevant information like size, cost, and information about your brand uniquely.

While we don't produce hang tags, we know some great places to get them. We recommend checking out Mama's Sauce or Moo to complete the job.

Custom-printed tags:

Custom-printed tags give your brand an extra touchpoint.

Branded inside tags with custom shirt tag printing is a great way to give your brand an extra touchpoint in a stylish, memorable manner. These tags will go a long way in giving your t-shirts a more custom, retail-quality finish.

Our soft inks are unnoticeable to the touch, so you won't feel discomfort on the back of your neck while wearing your shirt. It will look great while removing the itchy, irritating manufacturer tag with custom clothing tag printing.

Why should you use custom apparel tags?

Branding and Recognition

Tags play a significant role in enforcing brand identity. You create a memorable and recognizable mark by incorporating your logo, slogan, or brand name on the tag. When people see your custom apparel with a distinct tag, they can easily associate it with your brand. This fosters brand loyalty and helps create a strong brand presence in the market.

Information and Communication

Tags serve as a communication medium, providing essential information to the wearer. This info can include details such as fabric composition, care instructions, and sizing charts, ensuring that consumers have all the necessary information at their fingertips. This not only enhances the consumer experience but also promotes transparency and trust.

Differentiating Your Product

In a competitive market, standing out is critical. Custom apparel tags offer an opportunity to differentiate your product from others. Consider unique tag designs, materials, or shapes that align with your brand's aesthetic. Adding an extra element like a woven hem tag, a screen-printed tag, or a hang tag can elevate the perceived value of your custom apparel and make it more visually appealing. 

Customization and Personalization

Just as you customize the apparel, why not extend the personalization to the tags? Tailoring the tag design to match the custom apparel's overall aesthetic enhances your branding's cohesiveness. You can experiment with various colors, fonts, and graphics to align with your brand's style. Consider adding personalized messages or quotes that resonate with your target audience. This attention to detail is a significant bonus.

Marketing and Word-Of-Mouth

Tags can be an effective marketing tool. Consider them to be the final touch.*

*See what I did there, mentioning the title? Clever, huh? Thanks for noticing. 

Custom tags can increase your brand's visibility, add quality to your products, display information about your company, and pique the interest of your potential wearers.

Including your website, social media handles, or a QR code on the tag encourages customers to connect with your brand on digital platforms. 

When people wear your custom apparel and share it on social media, the label is a subtle yet powerful advertisement for your brand. This can generate organic word-of-mouth marketing, expanding your brand's reach.

Your brand story rules. Add a finishing touch to make a lasting impression.

When it comes to custom apparel, tags are more than just labels. They're an integral part of the branding and customer experience. 

Embrace the power of tags and take your custom apparel to new heights of style and identity. 

Remember, the next time you order custom apparel, pay attention to the tiny details that make a significant difference- the tags!
