What Are Woven Labels?
Woven labels are small fabric brand labels woven from thread and sewn into your garments. Unlike printed labels, they look and feel premium and durable — the finishing detail that makes a garment fully yours and builds real brand recognition.
- Woven from thread — premium & durable
- Satin, damask, taffeta, metallic & neon
- Neck, hem, sleeve & inseam care
Pro Tip: Leave a bleed so the label can fold or insert cleanly, and skip printed sizes (demand is hard to forecast). Want a luxe touch? Add metallic or neon thread for a dimensional effect.
Custom Neck Tags for Clothing
Custom woven labels for clothing don’t just help your customer know where they got their product from, they also help you build brand legitimacy.
Whether you’re branding premium pieces like custom dri fit t shirts, custom sweatpants, or retail-ready products, woven labels elevate the professional appeal of every garment. Relabeling is done by your favorite companies and there’s no reason why you shouldn’t too. DTLA Print offers a wide range of fabrics and fold options so you can customize your woven label to match your company’s specific needs.
Pro Tip: Custom woven labels take your garment to the next level. Use metallic thread or a vivid neon thread to add a dimensional effect to your custom woven label, in addition to exuding a feeling of luxury.
Custom Clothing Tags
Clothing tags come in many shapes and sizes — the right one depends on how the tag will be used. The 4 main varieties are hem, sleeve, neck and inseam care labels.
- · Hem & sleeve labels — show off your logo as a subtle way to build brand awareness.
- · Neck labels — kept clear so customers can easily find your brand.
- · Inseam care labels — sit on the inner seam and tell customers how to care for the garment.

Custom Woven Label Placement
The right label depends on the garment. The most popular placements are:
- · Straight Edge — a one-sided design sewn in flat; the simplest option, most often at the back of a t-shirt neck.
- · Center Fold — a folded rectangle with room for a two-sided design; often at the neck or inside as a care label.
- · Loop Fold — like a center fold, folded the opposite way; often on the outside of a garment.
Woven labels aren’t just for basic tees — they add value and reinforce brand identity on custom printed sweatpants, custom dri fit t shirts and premium athleisure. With over a decade of experience, our account reps can help you choose.
Types of Folds for Custom Clothing Tags
- · Loop — the most traditional; folded into a loop for easy attachment.
- · Manhattan — folded vertically, then hemmed; a clean look ideal for edges.
- · Mitered — folded at an angle to a pointed edge; common on jackets.
- · Hem — like a Manhattan, but sewn into the seam instead of onto the edge.
Most Popular Ways to Sew on a Woven Label
- · 4 Sided — all four corners sewn down.
- · 2 Sided — the top and bottom sewn down.
- · 1 Sided — only the top sewn down.
- · Open Top Seam — the neck seam is opened and the tag sewn inside it.
Tips on Ordering Custom Woven Labels
Woven labels are a simple way to raise your merch’s perceived value — especially for new brands looking to wow customers. Our account reps’ tips before you order:
- · Leave a bleed so the label can be folded or inserted.
- · Always order a sample.
- · Skip sizes on the label — demand is hard to forecast, and sized labels can cause inventory issues later.
- · Have your rep check your design’s line weights and thicknesses.
