Choosing Hem Tags: Woven vs Printed Label Tags
If you want your custom t-shirts to look like they belong in a high-end boutique rather than a cardboard giveaway box, you have to master the subtle details. Applying a custom tag to the bottom hem or the sleeve of the shirt is the ultimate retail finishing touch. You must choose between classic Woven Labels and soft Printed Labels.
The Tradition of Woven Labels
Woven tags offer an incredibly classic, tactile branding experience.
- The Process: Your logo is physically stitched into heavy damask fabric using colored threads.
- The Vibe: It provides a stiff, high-end retail look that instantly communicates premium quality and rigorous attention to detail.
The Comfort of Printed Labels
Printed labels offer a highly modern and comfortable alternative.
- The Process: Your detailed logo is silk-screened directly onto a piece of silky satin or cotton ribbon.
- The Benefit: It is significantly softer against the skin, making it the perfect choice for athletic wear and lightweight summer garments.
The Raven32 Recommendation
The smallest detail often makes the biggest impact. As printing and promotional experts, we know that adding a custom woven hem-tag to the bottom edge of a basic t-shirt instantly separates your brand from cheap promotional giveaways, justifying a much higher retail price point.
